This isn't quite right. The f1 generation are half auto, however that makes fast flowering seeds. You can breed those together to get about 25% auto, 50% fast, and 25% fully photo seeds. You grow those seeds and pollinate those autos with more pollen from the strain you're trying to turn into an...
I keep the t5 2 or 3cm away from the plants. You do want to keep an eye on them, prolonged contact with the bulb will burn leaves. I speak from experience.
Mycorrhizae also provide micronutrients, not just P. But you're right, bottled and liquid nutes do render them less useful in non-organic growing.

Not 6 months. Around here I can grow outdoors from the last week or so of May to the first couple weeks of October, depending on the weather. Sometimes I end up running out of time the first week of October. Plants straight in the ground got to about 7 or 8 feet, both tall and wide. Indica...
I would get them into soil now. Don't want those tap roots growing into the towel, or growing so long that the root breaks when you try to plant it.

So, I have learned my lesson, Take pics and post them before imbibing your favourite substance, lol.
Here we go, and I did make sure they were sharper before I put my camera away.
The yellowing isn't progressing, the fresh soil really helped things. I almost feel like I should've popped them...
Oh you certainly don't have them sitting in water 24/7, just a couple of minutes, if that. The pots I used for bottom watering were made specially for it. You pour water into the small reservoir at the bottom, and the soil wicks it up. A couple minutes later there's no more water in the res, and...
You will very likely get signs of excess nitrogen in that particular soil. I used it once when I didn't have anything else. Your plants will grow, but if you have limited space I would use something else. You're going to need an extended veg to grow through the N tox.
I usually use pro mix...
