hOW FAR AWAY IS IT COMPARED TO THE OTHER? (caps lock sry)
You can have the plants literally like 2 inches from the lights they really don't have any heat transmittance. but your hand under the bulb its not hot at all. so i think the bigger one can be 2" or so closer more growth faster :)

the other should be pretty close and very moist because its pretty much is sprouting mode so more moisture :) We'll be fine dude - these are the best seeds we could buy lets enjoy and not worry :leaf:

It's either gonna turn green from exposure to light and be fine, or it wont. I think you are gonna be just fine!

Set up your lights as close as your comfortable and give it a couple days to wake up for you guys! :)

Hell yeah buddy, looking good, how were the roots and such when you took it out of the cup? Looks like we have a real plant now. and I think we are going to need to stick with one plant for this grow, two we were asking for troubles... and sadly we found them... not enough space. shit happens so its alright, next time we will just need more space for two. Besides im still arranging my grow box so i should be good soon, + getting my tax return shortly as well.

Transplant looks good! More lights the faster it grows, jam a couple more in there if they'll fit.

Sounds like the other plant didn't make it... :( They don't all turn out, I got one thats dieing on me, and I can't figure out why either.... it was growing just fine and then stopped and started dying *shrug* oh well.

Best thing I can recommend is when you decide to flower the one you have growing that is when I would start germinating then "next" grow. Sometime within 2 weeks of switching to 12/12.

hey guys looks like things are popping for ya! the only thing i would like to address is get some duct tape or aluminum foil and cover those buckets could possibly affect the roots and make sure there more then enough hole for drainage. nice did you guys ever think about keeping her as a mother and cloning the shit out of her.

Why would you duct tape those buckets? What could affect those roots? I'm confused on your suggestion. Plants looking good.:eyesmoke:

lil bit of yellowing in the leafs this morning... I think that what ever traces of pre nutes added to the soil (not my choice only organic soil i could find with the least amount of added nutes) is now effecting it a lil bit new leafs look great and green and lush, she's still pushing out new leafs and stems so it dosnt look like its stunned at all but a lil bit of burn any ideas? considering i didnt add nutes yet i dont think i really need to flush it right? just have to wait and see how the next day goes. later gatta study fucking test tomorrow fuck !

Hey guys I took a reading to get up-to-date on your grow and found a few things I wanted to question about. I was wondering what soil you used for the transplant? What size pots? Did the second seed not make it? I would start another if it did because there's nothing worse than growing a plant out and seeing it turn male. 2 plants means that much more of a chance for female... I have a plant that's a hair bit over a month old and shes in a DWC and is looking gorgeous. The stems coming off of her are about the size of a pencil and the main stem is about the size of a lighter. I looked last night and seen a ton of little tiny hairs on her (preflowers) and plan to start a batch of clones off her very soon to get another 20 plants to start for a new flower cycle. Last question I can think of is how big is the room you're growing in?

well what i have it growing it is 5ft tall by like 2.5 feet wide 3 feet deep, second seed didnt make it no... it came to the surface and died. i used the same soil as what i planted it with i didnt add anything to it other then rocks at the bottom for drainage and its set to 20-4 light cycle. and i water only when needed. pot size is the same one that we used on our first plant before we threw it into the big clay one so i think its like a gallon and a half pot big enough for a while thats for shur.

you shud only have to transplant once, id put it in the biggest pot first that way you dont have any chance of fucking up the roots when it getts heavier for buds

if thats a ceramic pot ok but the roots tend not to like light, but there quite a few guys here that do use them and still get good results maybe cfls dont penetrate white buckets as much as hps or mh im just giving heads up thats all:weed:

It's really easy after you get a nice steady pace of what you have then you already know what to do and what not to do. A lot of growing is part of 1 of my favorite sayings, "trial and error" If at first you don't succeed then try try again. This last batch of clones I just did took over a month! to get roots but now they're taking off. I will have to get some pictures up I am a little behind and hate not keeping you guys up to date lol Btw in the size of 2.5x3 is good enough for a couple (maybe 3) to grow comfortably and produce a decent yield. Laner man your words are a boost in ego man and I appreciate it lol. As far as the clay pot man those things drink A LOT of water man, I would find a plastic 1... Good luck on however you decide.
