Quick update:

Gave the girls some water this evening. Haven't water them in 4 days! The soil was pretty dry. Not sure if anyone else does this but I watered around the outside of the pot instead of directly at its base. My thought is to teach the roots to grow. Not sure if it makes a difference or not...

Topped my biggest GC today as well (the one with the deficiency). The yellow leaves on the bottom seem to be past the point of bringing them back, however the rest of the plant seems to be doing good.

My biggest GC. Day 18

My smaller GC and BK seem to be doing good as well - Day 13

My other GC a few days behind ... Day 9

And the smallest of them all my other BK. This one is growing extremely slow but the leaves look healthy. It literally doesn't look much different from 3 days ago...any insight on why it might be behaving this way? Is it normal to have a runt ?

...Day 7

...Day 7

Honestly I had 7 going for some weeks now and they were just random bag seeds and they seem to be loafting pretty hard, they lag a few long days after topping and only down to 2 now because the 3rd in the box atm is a male, and honestly just cut the limb and save the rest! As long as the newer growth isn't turning yellow upon sprouting than they should be okay but what nutrients are you using for them

Newer growth is lush green. I'm using general organics grow box nutrients and I'm using 1/3 the recommended amounts on the box

Looking good buddy! I managed to get my hands on a Mars 2 1200 as well! I could never afford it brand new but I found one less than a month old and technically 'used' on ebay. Guy bought it new last month but ended up wanting a different lamp. So i got it for a steal at 200 euro (212 american) and local pickup. (It is about an hour away). It still has 9 months on its warranty! So I will DEFINITELY be watching your journal closely!

I am really impressed by the uniformity of your grow. Granted a lot of that is due to good genetics and but I think also you are getting great light dispersion with your 1200.

In the second photo are you showing us that little spot on your leaf? The bottom petal of the leaf on the left hand side looks like a pest or something decided to have a nibble on your fan leaf. Maybe nothing though... I am not the expert.

Your ladies look good though! Keep up the fine work my friend

Thanks!! I love the Mars 1200!! How are you liking yours? I'm personally very impressed with it so far. The plants are super healthy now and everything is good. No current deficiencies.

My biggest GC is going on day 26 and is really taking off. The others arent too far behind except my one BK. I think I transplanted it too early and put too much stress on it. Anyway, I topped 4/5 of them between 3 and 6 days ago and they're all starting to show lots of new growth.

New growth is really coming in now!

On day 31 for my biggest plant. Will post pics this evening.

Didn't get my scrog installed yet I'll probably do it later this week.

Think I might switch over to 12/12 around day 45. Is that too early for scrog grow?

Here's some pics from tonight. Just gave them some water. My small BK is growing extremely slow. May get rid of it and just grow 4...any idea what I can do to get this one growing quicker?

The rest seem to be doing good though. No signs of deficiencies!

Also my one GC has 3 new shoots coming out after I topped it!

Well I got my scrog installed tonight and everything is going well. Cleaned out the tent while I was in there and gave them another drink of water since the soil was pretty dry.

Out of curiosity, should I be feeding them nutes every time I water? That's what I have been doing for the past few weeks however I've only been using 1/4 to 1/2 strength of the recommended amount on the General Orangics box.

I also ended up doing a pony tail on the 4 bigger plants to let some of the lower branches get some more light

Anyway here are some pics of the updated setup.

Biggest one is on day 32 since sprouted from seed.

Looking very good! I haven't even had to touch my nutrients yet... but what I have read tells me that watering with nutes every water will cause build up and eventually lock out. They recommend either water, feed, water, feed or water, water, feed, water, water, feed and so on because the water flushes the abundance of buildup away. Like I said this is just what the I have researched. Maybe someone more advanced will stop by with real anecdotal experience.

Yea dude don't feed everytime, you definitely want to give clean water next watering. It messes with your ph pretty bad if you don't. Builds up salts from the nutes
