I would make sure the plants are wiggling from air flow. If they aren't wiggling around, they will get very stretchy and wispy and you may run into problems

overall they look very healthy keep it up!

with increased air flow, and these seedlings starting to take off, I would expect to have to water more often than you are used to in the next day or so. Also, in a week or two you may be ready to transplant them, so I'd be ready for that whenever they seem big enough

Ok thanks Nizza. I'm going to look out for that.

They grow up so fast

good luck on your grow!!

Day 12

Gave ~100ml of pH 6.5 water each last night because the soil was dry past the first knuckle. Leaving the fan on now in an effort to beef these things up a bit. Full day of sunshine on the way. I could use it too!

Day 13

Leaves are beginning to overlap. Going to have to spread these out a bit soon. Otherwise, everything seems fine.

Already considering an indoor grow for after this is done because this weather is driving me nuts (and they're not even outside yet!). Also because I don't want to wait a year to do this again . Since space is an issue and I need to sell this idea to the girlfriend, I'm leaning on a 2x2x5 tent scrogging two plants in ~3 gal pots with an SF-1000 and maybe work these CFL fixtures I bought in there somehow.

Day 14

Not as big as I'd hope they'd be after 2 weeks but we had a gimpy start. Seems like they're picking up now.

Another time-lapse for you:

Day 15

I feel like these are ready to take off. One plant grew 25mm in 24 hours. Think I might put these in some 1 gal pots today or tomorrow. Not sure if 1 gallon is a waste of time but I originally planned on going straight from the 4 inch to the 5 gal and that just seems like too big of a transition. I'd be afraid of water sitting in there for a week straight.

Day 16

Found some 2.6 gallon pots so I went ahead with that. Transplanting didn't go as smooth as I planned but when does anything ? The roots were starting to pool up in the 4 inch pots but I feel like if I left them in a day or two more they would have been easier to handle.

Since the two plants closest to the window will get a lot of sunlight I might have to switch these around once or twice a day. I'm also not sure how much longer these 3 CFLs are going to cut it.

Gave them each ~500ml of 6.6pH tap water.

Day 17

Sad day today. Had to rip out the plants. Got a notice from my building head office saying that people have been smoking weed in their units and on their balconies and it's not allowed. Followed was a reminder that you can't grow as well. I was under the impression it was legal. It wasn't written on my lease and this is the first I am ever hearing of this rule since marijuana was legalized but I'm just going to let it go. I don't feel like getting into a fight with my landlord or evicted in the middle of a pandemic.

I'll just lurk the forums so when I get my own place I can jump right back into it.



Just went out and picked up 5 more CFLs this morning too

Damn sorry to hear that should have gotten a grow tent

less obvious
