They were struggling a bit u can see it in the first and second set of leaves.
I'm not too worried tho, they're getting stronger and more beautiful day by day.

Two of them showing super slow growth and one of those has an odd shape. But there's not enough room anyways for all of them.
On the up-side: The others mostly seem to thrive and are decorating themselves with this maple'ish looking foliage - beautiful - I love it!

Running the lights 48/6 @55% (120w) first time running that schedule, but it's working quiet well
Pace is decent and asides from the one lady trying to sell her tacos to me, they look fine and didn't care too much about the heatwaves we had.

Update:

• Dusted off the fan and the fixtures.
• Cleaned everything out with soapwater.
• Sorted the RJ cables and power cables, looks pretty neat now!
• Brushed the inside of the fabric pots, they still had a ton of roots stuck at the bottom.
• Mixed some Pro mix with extra perlite and got rid of all the chunks and chips of wood I found in there.
• Soaked all the ladies and repotted 'em into the fabric pots.

I'm pretty dead - took me over 6 hours...

Gonna post some more pictures on Sunday, I just took a quick one after I was finished.

Pretty clean, I'd say... at least not as messy as it used to be.

I left some of the babes alone, topped one of them and gonna do LST and the others are just bent over at the main stem.
I'm pretty excited to see the difference in the end results.

Some of the ladies decided to break out of their cage, or rather rip it out of the ground last night.
Had to get a lil creative. Took a needle poked a hole through the fabric and passed the garden wires through, so they wouldn't move.
Amazing thing to me is the fact that some of the other plants that stayed bent already started adapting over night.
The topped one on the other hand will need multiple days. I see now why people prefer the LST method.
