my seedlings different colores, first time proper grow.

I have played around many times before, but my first serious grow with some what proper equipment. I have 2 seedlings auto-flower white widow. my sprouts are two different colors one is what id call the normal shade of dark green, the other is a light almost yellowish green.
they both in the same soil not treated any different, the dark one may have slight nutrient burn from the rapid root starter.
But my issue is why the other one is a completely lighter color, if its natural or what.
That sprout seems to be growing slightly faster too, the lighter one.
I am using a vipar spectra 600 par light in a 4'x4' tent (I all ready know my tent to big)
And im exhausting with a ac infinity inline with humidity control.
First picture is the light one, I had trouble getting the lighting right to see what I am talking about.
Also im only using white and blue light right now, Light is 36" from plants.
(ignore third bucket)

Snowflakes ...they are both individual and special ...good luck and welcome to RIU

They probably just trying to get use to the soil and stuff, give em time and they will hopefulky take off.

- Move your meter out of the light, the light warms it and gives false readings.

-Wind is bad air exchange good, point that fan upwards away from plants, it will make circulation without wind which stresses plants as it rips heat and water away too quick.

- You dont need to worry about humidity, not sure if thats why you have a glass of water in there or not but not needed and a hazard around electricity. Weed can regulate for humidity eithout our help but we make sure we stay well under 70% as a rule or mold time.

- Start in small pots and work your way up , those are moohassive and it will not help you get a good wet dry cycle.


Just my two cents and welcome to the club

Ty for the info shared so far, please know I appreciate it.

They autoflowers they keep saying not to transplant them at all, from my research why I did the buckets.

They're fine. Some don't get dark. I have a Jack Herer breed that will burn to the ground before it gets dark.

"They" say that because "they" are afraid of transplant shock stunting the life cycle. If you aren't confident in your transplant ability, start in the full size pot. As you get better, you can try a transplant and find out for yourself.

Ah well its sometimes best to start with feminized photoperiod seeds not autos as they can extend veg to soak up any shocks.

Id assume they wont need any feed for a while and your all set just sit back and water once in a while.

Youll be fine, first grow of many

yeah fam I went fem auto for first time just to reach the end goal easiest and each time I plan to switch to regular photo fems and then to hydro. I'm just trying to prove to myself I can do it first.

I can't say Thank You enough, I understand it's going to be a continual learning experience, so I'm grateful for any and all advice.

Well at least you have your head on straight and you're not trying to shit a shitter, so you'll do just fine and find help whenever you need it.

These boards and the internet tend to overcomplicate, soil and a fert (which soil has so not needed for few weeks yet) the right environment and thats it your done till harvest. Keep it simple then learning curves minimal
