Week 2 for the first two, not sure how long its been on the 3rd one. First two probably stunted due to overwatering.
They are starting to liven back up tho, looking greener and perking back up. Planning to water every 2 or 3 days from now on.

ive read up that green lights are okay for plants during the nighttime.. but if i were you i would definetely cut the wire to kill the LED lights on those fans.plants need PURE DARKNESS when they sleep., i personally wouldnt want to risk a hermie even if that LED is green.. Just my opinion.. i had blue lights on my fans all i had to do was snip one wire

Yeah, might do that eventually but they dont sleep right now. Running 24/0 till flower. And yeah, green wouldnt effect them, and thats all plants. Learned that in Botany lol.

Here are the girls (wishful thinking). Gettin some real good growth now. Gonna pick up some plastic pots some time soon so i can get rid of these clay pots. From what i have read/heard you should transfer when the 3rd node comes in, sound about right?

I'm not to sure about the transplanting, but looks like they could go a couple days more in the same pot(not 100% sure though)

For the lights, i agree with them, i would snip the wire just to be sure :D

Things seem to be picking up, got a small passive hydro grow. tripled in size in 9 hours, was amazed at the speed compared to the soil. Hopefully all goes well.

Looking good man, coming along nicely. I assume your still vegging? When are you going to flower?

I noticed you said its not a passive hydro grow.. How did you go from soil to hydro.. seems like since you were rooted in soil it would be very hard to go to hydro? I could be completely wrong.. or missing something... or very very stoned. Who knows.

Just missing something, i started off in just soil, then read up on hempy buckets and then started one just recently, the one you see with a plastic bag in the pot is my passive hydro grow, i just started flowering yesterday, not looking for much yield on my first grow, just trying to learn the plant so when i grow some serious seeds i dont waste the money. The hydro will be 2 weeks old tomorrow and the others are like 6 or 7 weeks old. Gonna post some pics of my seemingly successful attempt at some LST on my biggest plant.

loving the growth going on now, especially on my bigger plant and hydro, does anyone know if the yellowing on the new foiliage is normal or if i should do something?

Got a new box, temp is staying a lil lower but with the same 2 vents and fan so im guessing its the wood, whatever it is im happy, temp is now staying in the high 70's and growth is amazing now, started using superthrive on my hempy, dunno if it will do anything but from what ive read it cant hurt.
