It means your plants are lovin life and ready for some great lighting.

They'll actually do that in my room all the way through flower right after watering. I call em leaf boners.

Nothins wrong dude its a good thing. It means its happy just keep doin what your doin. Usually when I see this I know that I'm not over watering and the roots are getting plenty of oxygen.

For one month that is way under developed. You need more light and a bigger pot if you want your grow to amount to anything.

hey buddy im no expert and this is a bit late but I also beleive that glass/clear plastic is not good for your roots as it lets the light in.

Is not a good thing to grow in a glass...too many light on roots.. i think they really need a new container!

You need to start autos in the main grow pot from start to finish. The lifespan is already short, they don't need the added stress of repotting. Don't use a clear anything to grow in.. The light will reach the roots as mentioned above, tats not good. Auto flowers do best on 18/6 lighting schedule from start to finish. You need a different bulb. Hps would be best, however I have grown some kill with cfls. Also they generally show preflowers at 2 weeks. Good luck!
