dude theres nothing wrong with your plants they look fine.
stop trying to see or create an issue that isnt there

stop helicopter parenting and youll drive yourself less insane.

Learn a new word every day a the RIU club! ...lol

A helicopter parent (also called a cosseting parent or simply a cosseter)
is a parent who pays extremely close attention to a child's or children's
experiences and problems, particularly at educational institutions.

I'd be more concerned with the lack of perlite and naturally those red streaks
to correct see to ur room temps

Thanks everyone and noted on the helicopter parenting. @vostok
could not find perlite were I live in time for seedling stage. Will try to get them by the time I transplant them(subst. With fine granite and volcanoc rock just a bit) +org. Pear moss, comppst and worm humus and will ad org. Nutrients when they get a bit bigger.
The roots are starting to come out of the bottom should I transplant them now or wait a little while(had to trsnsp. From jiffy pott a week ago they sucked a lot of h2o)
I read sometimes the roots will cime out from the bottom and that they will just expand horizontaly instead of reaching down , any knlowledge about that?

Sorry for all the random questions, just trying to learn fast on the way my fist"grow" (moxie alpine og fem ) 3/3 germinated.


Thanks for the good energy.

pot up now to a 3 us gallon/15liter pot add 25% perlite or clean river sand, volcano rock is great
insert to bag and drive over with car 2-3 time to get the size right, or beat with stick

AVOID peat moss is a Canadian fetish,
will hold way too much water ..
hence nutes, leading to nute burn, later

good luck

Def way to earlier for that one pound call forsure . On another note for substituting perlite I actually got a lot of perlite in my soil but got this soft fluffy insulation like stuff to put into the bottoms of my pots suppose to retain some water but allow drain holes from closing , and good drainage anyone ever used what I'm talkin
Bout or even no what I'm talkin lol ....

The pound thing is kind of a running joke.
