GG4 had 0.5" taproot, she's in this until Saturday. Under the shot glass on the left. Reused Betta container 
This my GFs diy vivarium which has a better light (80 watt full spectrum LED) than my current setup, pft.

Sprouts/seedlings don't need all of the spectrum other than red filtered out, lol. And if you're trying to force a stress-induced expression of hermaphrodism, that... probably won't work.

pH of well water is 7.2.
I have citric acid and vinegar 4 now, but info on pH stability over time is hit and miss.
I'd like to have a week supply of pH'ed water but suspect it will creep up over time. My China pH pen is worthless after 4 years, and no $$ to replace it for 2 weeks.
Any advice?

Add a commercial horticultural pH Down (or Up) product to your want list. It's more stable, and it's not really expensive for the amount used per dose. Plus, it contains ingredients that plants use (e.g., phosphorous in pH Down).

Will do. Ive really made this more stressful than need be.
New job 9 to 5 Mon thru Friday; was a cook working nights.
How you guys get anything done with that schedule is beyond me.
I digress.
3 above soil, gave GF the GG4 to take care of in her vivarium ( with the perfect light
).
Made a grid to support ANY lights as previous setup was laxidaisical at best.
Hot as hell here on East Coast @ 40°N.
Humidity is good between 50 and 65%. Small fan for now blowing air around. Dont see a need for carbon filter yet. Temp in closet hovers around 80F. Im saying fine for now.
Pics later, maybe.
Dinner, dogs, replace kitchen sink strainer + plumbing, replace alternator on '80 F150 yada yada
Truck and job pics 4 now.
I make fiberglass old car parts. Studebaker, old T-buckets, hoods and misc stuff. Pretty flicking cool

Had to support the States coffers for a bit.
Down to one Cheese girl, 2.5 inches at 15 days, 10 of those without my care. She's ok for me, started 2 more and pH pen ordered.

A little behind I think, but healthy looking overall. 2.75 inches, the fan leaves grew about 25% in last 2 days as well as the branches.

Aaaand we have pistils at 3.25 inches.
So this one is a bust in my eyes. One more above ground and one underground taking its time. This has been a disappointing start to Autos for me, but Im.npt giving up. My lighting situation HAS to improve, my $$ situation will NOT improve.
Any encouraging words would be helpful.

Hiya Mbunaaddict.
Put a picture up, let's have a look.
It could be just pre flower pistils.
I grow dark devil autos. They throw out early pre flowers about day 18 usually, they then stretch...last one I got nearly 3 ounces from.

Specs on my 6400K leds. I have 6 of these and four 4000K 48" leds.
Please tell me these will be fine in some combination.

I know you were getting some, if not all of them, for free. Do you have the ability to run all 4000k lights and scrap that he 6500's? 3000-4000k frequency is more of an all purpose spectrum.

Day 24 AG.
I can. But for now its the Fecida CR600.
I will be in a better financial situation in a few weeks when I'll invest in a light system that will suit the foreseeable ever changing styling of my grow. Some photos will grace the stage in a last ditch effort to get some outdoor fruit.
Did LST and tucked a few leaves on the teenager. Thats an old plant repurposed for tie downs, lol.
Im amazed at the bonsai nature along with rather stiff structure.
Another UKCheese auto fem at 2.5 days above ground.
Love
Peace

Had a male from kind bagseed outside, moved him to an unused bathroom.
42" x 70" with hot and cold water and its already a flat white, and measures out to 1.9 sq/m. Good footprint, waiting on approval from the manager,
I'd like to pollinate this Cheese auto on a small bud from that male and snag a dozen seeds of the cross, knowing that MOST will be regular photoperiods. Which I want just to have some Cheese genetics for free with f1 having some hybrid vigor. Prolly end up trying to scrog them with autos sometime down the line.
Just playing around here so all positive feedback is always welcome and appreciated.
