Lights on… and then 2 hours before lights off.
I converted a cabinet in the garage which is basically 21” x 21” x 60”
I am a section in my garage walled off…and a stand alone AC in that area. Lights on im 75-78 F and 72-74% humidity
Lights off… I can only cool it down to 69-70F but drop the humidity down to about 60%
Using Xs1500 Pro.
Probably 2-3 week of veg depending on ones definition of when veg actually starts.
My enviroment is very small… and have found little changes have big affects… which is good and bad.
I have found that the light manufacture recommendations for settings and heights do not work in my box… im usually higher on height and lower on ppfd… or just always on the lower end of thr spectrum.
Im completely new at all of this and just trying to learn as I go.

How frequently are you watering?
Its been a rough couple of days as I transplanted from a solo cup into a 3 gallon.
Long story … short i ended up having to take the root ball back out yesterday… breaking it up a little bit… and then drenching it. It just floated on top of the water until I poked it a couple times… bubble.. sucked up the water and sank.
Let it drain out for a minute… replanted it right before lights out yesterday.
I honestly didnt think she was gonna make it today and then all her leaves were sticking flat out and happy.
The rest of the soil is def moist but not wet.
Its like the root ball had become hydrophobic..

So back to your question: 3 gallon pot every other day…. 1200-1500 ML.

Pics before transplant and out of the solo cup

It’s likely just the shock from being through all that.

It looks great and should be fine in a few days.
I suggest continuing what your doing and let it do it’s thing.
Your doing great. Keep it up.

Appreciate that!
I started two more because I thght for sure this was a gonner.
I am only giving her about 350 ppfd right now to cut back on stress.
She will more than likely be ready for water tmrw.

It's weird because when I pop packs of S1s made with current "era" clones they are a lot closer than seeds made from supposed 20+ year old clones. Popping a pack of S1S and not finding anything even similar to the clone (doesn't have to be as good or better just share similarities with the mother) usually makes me think the issue is with a mislabeled mama and not selfed seeds
This makes more sense to me because even though these breeders are just "smashing clones together" those clones were still selected for a reason. So even though one breeder might not be doing the work. Successive breeders are doing the work together more or less. CSI is about preservation and that is why I buy his seeds. You get more variation from older genetics because they are in fact not worked as far as all these newer strains which are all related to each other.
 
Five phenos of View attachment 5412873"Judgement Day" T-1000 x GDP week 7 of flower
Quick rundown of each plant starting from the top left going clockwise. !st plant is the best producer, nice big buds on this one. Fan leaves started yellowing first, about 4 weeks into flower. 2nd plant is a little shrub with lots of little popcorn nugs, this has the most purple color out of the five. Trichome coverage average at best. 3rd plant is also a good producer, nice big buds, smells like rubber when pinched. 4th plant looks very different than her sisters, fat fan leaves, looks like more of the kush came through with her. Best trichomes out of the 5. 5th plant was a disappointment, was the largest plant in veg and didn't stretch much at all. Smell is similar to the big #1 plant but with no yellowing.

30 years ago if you selfed a good skunk clone the majority of the seeds would have smelled at least skunky. If you get a pack of "roadkill skunk s1" from copycat (or ANYONE else for that matter) today and don't find anything skunky it won't be because S1 variation, genetic drift, poor growing ability, because it's grown under LED instead of HPS or outside, or due to a lack of sulfur from acid rains. It will be because the plant that was selfed wasn't actually roadkill skunk. Copy (or whoever else is selling the roadkill skunk seeds) will tell you that you need to buy another couple packs to find one that actually smells like skunk when the reality is nobody actually has a real skunk cut anymore.

It's the same thing as those who bought the fake wedding cake s1s. You could go through 100 packs and not find anything like JB wedding cake because the seeds weren't in fact made with the wedding cake people were expecting.
