Hi , this is my third seedbag attemp, my first quality seeds are on its way... This time I'm using Coco mixed with 5% perlite and 20% worm organic mix ... I transplanted them yesterday and this morning they are looking healthy.... What do you think ?

My idea is use this baby to learn the basics and try some LST and maybe Manifolding under a Hydrogalaxy 260w LED indoors.... Your appreciations are welcome!!!

I'm no pro but I think you could have waited much longer to transplant such a young seedling......
Transplanting is a bit stressful for the plant if well done, or quite stressful if not done carefully.
I've read here on RIU that you should transplant maximum twice...
 
Transplanted wayyyy too early. I'm 2 weeks into my grow and my plants are over the edges of my pot and I'm still waiting a little bit longer to transplant. The soil you started your seed in, if you chose the right kind, should provide nutrients for your seedlings for quite some time. And you shouldn't worry about going rootbound on such small plants. Just be patient. Its called weed for a reason. Very easy to grow. More plants are killed by too much love rather than neglect. I'm no expert by any means but I hope this was helpful

I transplanted it because it was planted outdoors, and I was worried about too much rain, the seedling started to look droopy and I got scared... that's why I'm planning to move it indoors inside a cabinet with the LED lamp. Hope it can make it.
 
I like CFL's over LED. I know this is going to start a war but CFL's work just fine are are 10% the cost of LED. For just 1 plant and your first grow I would go with 2 5000-6500k CFL bulbs and use 2400k for flowering

I've been using some small cfls (60w equiv)(800 lumens)

now I see they have LEDs that are fairly cheap (60W equiv)(760 lumens)

both are under $3/ea @ home depot
 
That's good. There is nothing wrong with bagseed as long as you don't mind taking chances. I am growing 2 bagseed plants from blue cheese strain and they are both showing female characteristics. So sometimes you get lucky. Just fond a technique that works for you. There is no sure fire way to grow. Nobody does it exactly the same. If it works and gets you high. Keep it up

A good rule of thumb is.... when the top set of leaves outreach the sides of your pot, cup then it's time to transplant....obv if your into 8 weeks veg and a 5 gal pot and leaves are hanging over, it's ok...I'm just saying early on
