Oh Wow! Shes starting to rip. Look at those leaves rising! She's a goer . Even Gimpy is taking off. Nice work!
Gnats can be a sign the soil is too wet so you could let it dry out a bit to help. If you insist on killing the bastards many have had good success with Mosquito dunks.

Good Morning All
Today the ladies are on Day 24 and the little coffee cup one is on Day 4.
The little cal mag I gave them both Monday appears to have stopped the the browning of leaves from continuing.

How is the air circulating where your grow space is? Those leaves look way over saturated in my opinion. Root rot is a concern.Good Morning All
Today the ladies are on Day 27 and growing well. The smallest is on Day 7.
Gonna let them go another day before feeding/watering them.
Feedback is appreciated

Im not an auto grower at all, never grown one, but I am lurking auto grows and I may be way off base as I don't know but, I see a lot of autos looking droopy and over nitrogened. Nitrogen attracts and requires water so the 2 go hand in hand. I think that if you sprouted autos in full on flower soil instead of higher nitrogen vegging soil, they would be happier. Just a thought though. I will try it when I get around to autos. It would alleviate uppotting too. But I could be 100% wrong
I was asking why and how you were watering. Proper watering trips up a lot of growers, and not just new ones. If you're going with the standard wet/dry cycle you shouldn't be watering on a set schedule but rather when the plant has drained much of what was given with the last watering.
For small plants and especially large containers that interval can start out at more than a week but should shorten by a day or so every cycle. Do that until you have to water every day or two and it's time to uppot. The pot should be surprisingly light when you pick it up before you soak the container again. That will give you a dense rootball.
I grow In SIPs so don't do it this way except at the very beginning when a new plant is just getting established. But at that point too much water will slow it down.

Yeah, coco is different from soil so watering everyday seems to be what's recommended. In soil, if you rewater too soon the lower roots never dry out to get a hit of oxygen and that's when root rot sets in.
So some sort of good watering practice is essential.

I took @Azimuth advice on watering yesterday and waiting for them to dry out another day or so before watering. I have noticed less drooping on fan leaves!!!!
