So I germinated by sitting seeds in normal tap water over night then putting them on paper towel between 2 plates and putting on top of ps4 and after 24hours they had established an impressive taproot. I would have liked to plant directly into final 23L fabric pots but I didn't have any so I just used a couple small plastic pot's lying around. I planted directly into the coco on the 23rd and by the 24th they had popped up. I immediately made a light mix of nutes with a dash of rhino skin and used a syringe to water very lightly. The coco wasn't completely dry still damp from the expansion process. After a couple of days of light watering I mixed a new batch of nutrients leaving out the rhino skin. 1mlA 1mlB in 1L of rested water. I used around 250ml for both seedlings watered until run off. The following day i proceeded with the original nute mix and watering with a syringe towards the outside of the pot to let the centre dry some and encourage roots to have a look around. It's now the 29th and I decided to water to a little run off again. Pics are in order from 24th day 1 until 29th day 5

So today is the 30th and the girls have had a big night by the looks. Maybe I have sign's of cal/mg deficiency with twisting and curling up on the out edges of the leaves. They are still very short and stacking on top of itself so I raised the light just a touch and thought might be what the sign's are pointing to. To much light intensity. Anyone can chime in because I have no idea. Pots are still heavy so very light water just around centre and see how they go by tomorrow.

moving the light up will help , looks that way , make sure your drain holes are not blocked with small particles of coco , put your finger and thumb to hold the seedling in place and tip the pot to the side to see if excess water runs out
Will do. felt bottom heavy so you might be onto something. My fabric pot's should be here any day now
 
i would lift the light more mate , about 3 feet above until they settle in ,get a smaller floor fan to blow across the seedling and pots , help dry them too
they end up with a vapour barrier and will never grow, no matter what nutes lights or what ever , if the cant breath proper they never grow proper , you want air moving through there more , keep the tent open where the air vents are at the bottom , set your temp and humidity gauge on one of the pots to see what its like for the plants :thumb:
 
i have a fan going across the babies , one that sits where my fresh air comes in on the flower and one blowing the older buds , plus i want to add more lol the more air movement the better they grow

my room is just polystyrene blocks down a farm yard glued together with expandable foam lol :ganjamon: and is the messiest on 420mag :reading420magazine: refit next week though , this was temporary :idea:
 
I actually raised the light way up before reading this and it's only at 24" now so think I was cooking them. The sensor for the hygrometer is at plant level in the tent just the display outside. Will get another fan in there asap. Left some doors open today see how we grow. Thanks heaps your input is much appreciated here.cheers

I just reread your post and realised you said lift the light more when I first read i thought it said "I wouldn't lift the light more" has me wondering if I should raise it even higher now. Lolmy bad
 
So transplanted one was going to do both but what if she doesn't like it, so i just did 1 and 1

pending. Added great white and fed with 2ml rhizo,1ml cocoA and 1ml cocoB in a litre of water. Noticed upon transplant the bottom of pot was very wet and root system looked pretty healthy already but hadn't reached the bottom. All the roots around the outside of the pot looked great.
 
Me waiting patiently for harvest time. Just hurry up and wait

its the worst part , i have a short attention span , adhd, and gods knows what else , i cant even wait on a bus , i make soil then get that excited i plant into hot soil lol , ive got away with uncooked for three grows this run

,the key is to stop fixing what isn't broke :thumb:
 
sweet sounds good ! move the light up half foot now as this one in the bigger pot is getting a bit much after a re pot two/ three day when they go up a node you can drop a couple of inches at a time
I moved it right up and it's only been on half so should I turn it up before lowering it again cheers for help bro
