First Grow...A Couple Questions

Disagree. It was light being to far away. My research lead me to believe germing straight in the final pot (full and watered) was/is the best approach. Especially for autos as you want them to settle in asap and be as stress free as possible since you're on a count down.

Why would you want to cover a growing plant. No way it should stretch that much. Streching is simply a result if reaching for more light.

No offense, but you seem to throw around a lot of info, usually critical, without much to back it up. It could get new growers(which you seem to be yourself) in trouble, or point them in the wrong direction if they havent done enough research on their own.

Cannabis plants are like tomato plants, if you bury the bare stems they grow roots.
No point in having a long stem before the leaves, I prefer a short stem and more roots.

I don't believe I mentioned the size of your pot anywhere .... just the level you filled it to.
I'm rubbish at growing plants to maturity, don't have the attention span, but I'm a genius with germinating.

I just read everything from the beginning and figured you were growing autos when you started in 3 gallon pots. When not growing autos most start in solo cups and put plants into larger pots in stages, so if the plant shoots up you can bury the stalk deeper allowing roots to grow from the freshly buried stalk.

Your plants are looking happy and healthy, keep up the good work. Post more pics as you go..

Unfortunately, I just notice a little browning on one of my plants leaves. I've only been misting the soil so decided to give them their first proper watering.

From calmag issue .... often the plight of led grows . Supplement into your watering , start at 1 tsp per gallon . You can also Foliar spray them for quicker absorption .

Just did a little LST and noticed a couple things. Overall the plants look healthy, I think, but a couple leaves have something going on.
