did u read the post with the pics of the kayak? it may be awesome to read about, but i can tell you it wasn't awesome to do! lol, man i have muscles that hurt i didn't know existed...

any ideas on how long to wait to give these guys a little bit of nutes? hep get them stronger faster...
aHH, DON'T be a pussy dude.. J/K!

How much longer? How old are they again? I'll need to go and look back..

They still look to young to me. If you do feed them nutes...give them a very very very small amount. Test it out on just one of them...

they are only 10 days old, my 5 mystery girls(hopefully) have the first set of 5 point leaves, and are starting the second

to give a comparison, the last pic is one of the seeds planted a day after the one in question...

Naw man, you will be suprised how much those fucking roots grow. Those bitches are probably all wound up in your soil.

I had the same problem 2-3 weeks into my grow. Plant 2 was the one that went root bound - it's a male.. ;)

If it is root bound, it will start to droop soon..

well i moved it to a bigger container... but i can tell you it definitely wasn't root bound... when i got it out of its original container the soil completely fell apart, next to nothing holding it together... little roots coming off the main one... hopefully it lives thru that...

So you didn't see the roots everywhere? If you didn't see them all at the bottoms of the soil or on the sides..you didn't need to transfer. I said it could be the begining of root bound...you should have waited to see if they drooped.

What size pots did you put them in? If you didn't rip any roots or totally tear that soil apart, there shouldn't be any problems.

live and learn i guess, thats why i didn't move them all, just the one that is weird looking

i just moved the one... it is in a jiffy pot about 4 inches deep and 3 inches wide all the others are in the flower tray type, about 2 inches wide and 3 inches deep. I cant put them in too big of pots or it will be next to impossible to move them to my site

Oh yea, forgot about that. They should be fine in those containers at least for another week or so.

When do you plan on taking them out into the woods?

the trail cam i only bought cause it was extremely cheap... like 30 bucks cheap, plus i figure on a outdoor crop, might as well have something i can check before i go to my plants... I am thinking I will put it on the little entrance spot(not many ways to get in off the water), that way i can check for pics before going to my babies... that way if something happens, or someone is there i can say "hey i had to piss" or something like that. plus if i find pics of people, i know to be extra careful going to check the plants

I'm watching, lol. That map of your trails is pretty impressive. You'll catch some pretty amazing photos with that camera. Hopefully just animals visit your grow, but they are some cool shots.
