looks good but I woulda started them off in something a lil smaller, then when they were a lil more mature I woulda put them in those pots.

I do this bcuz the roots always grow straight to the bottom of whatever the plants are in and build a rootball there without using the dirt in the middle.


^^that wastes a lot of soil and space that should be taken advantage of.


if you start them in smaller containers they will use up 100% of the space and still continue getting bigger and bigger, but in smaller pots.



then, right before the plant is root bound, you transplant into a larger container. That way, the roots will have to search and grow their way outta the rootball and find the bottom of the new planter.



During that process the plant gets larger and begins to utilize the space it has.


also be careful not to overwater in that larger container, its very easy to do bcuz most grow faq's tell you to water until there is runoff coming out of the bottom. if U do so in a container that larger it will be very easy to get root rot which leaves you with unhappy plants ;-)

to be on the safe side just give them smaller doses of water of spray their foliage once or twice per week.

thats good, and its good to know you've been doing your homework, that always make reading grow journals more pleasurable watching a knowledgeable grower and all.

that was really my only advice, the plants look very happy and healthy. I urge you to continue reading and keep us updated with the progress
:peace:

I just planted my first 4 seeds in a big pot (like an hour ago). I should probably scoop those out and put em in cups huh. I didn't think it was a big deal to the plant until I saw spittn4cash's diagrams

p.s. good luck to ya! I will be following along, hope to catch up to where you're at in a couple weeks :)
