So I figured id start a diary so here goes

Ok so from the beginning
I started three seeds all three germinated just fine stuck em into some peat pellets let them grow a while then transplanted them into beer cups
Then I bought a large seed starting kit and planted it full of seeds
Most of them sprouted and I then transplanted them into beer cups
meanwhile the first three started taking off one of them in particular was very vigorous I transplanted that one into a bigger pot
The other two are due for a transplant soon.
Here are some past pix of various stages of growth following the timeline.

Ok so this is the first full diary entry
Right now my biggest plant is about 6 1/2 inches tall looking super healthy and vigorous You can really see the stem sprouts getting nice and developed
Been feeding her (i hope) the same regiment as always 7 drops of the (plant food) I bought at lowes per quart of water She seems to be taking really well to this recipe so ill continue using it with all of my plants.
The other two of the first three are doing okay Not nearly the growth as the big plant though Both about the same size and ready for a transplant for sure
Each plant is about 3-4 inches tall.
The squirtlings from the second batch are doing good Still drooping over from the stretching at sprout but they should recover soon. I started using little squares of paper that anchor to the cup to provide support and it seems to be doing well.

One thing I did notice about the big plant is that the roots are ALREADY popping out the bottom of the pot! Holy shit they grew fast Its only been in that pot for a week! Not sure if I should re-pot it already into a 5 gallon or not

Another thing I noticed is there are small holes in some of the leaves Almost like caterpillar chomps. Don't know whats up with that maybe someone here will know. I didn't see any signs of bugs of any sort but ill keep and eye on it

Ok so today I put in a make shift sink next to my growbox
Walking up and down stairs filling the watering can sucked so I just ran a garden hose down there with a shutoff, Pix speak a thousand words.
I am now misting the plants 3 times a day with a misting attachment I made out of a stopper cap. The water coming through the hose is sediment filtered only (we are on a well and the ph/hardness of the water is fine. Low salt content too)

All the plants are doing great and getting bigger by the day
I am going to re-pot the two smaller plants of the first three into 2 ga containers tomorrow

Bro those look good....I always transplant into 5gal pots and love to grow big. I use Ocean Forest potting soil...but I add a few goodies to my mix. If your not flowering her yet I would top or supercrop to keep the stretch down. Also be careful and not overwater your plants when there small it's easy to do....I wouldn't mist the plants with water very often...I definatly wouldn't mist them 3 times a day. I bought a Indoor Grow Bible about 10 years ago and have learned alot from icmag and overgrow. There's alot of good people and great gardeners that will help you out. Your pics and illistrations look great also.....you can find unlimited knowledge from these posts and members....Goodluck and keep up the good work....wv. Also I'm not sure what nutes you use but I would go to a hydroponic store and buy fertilizer there.....most things from lowes and home depot ie miracle grow is not good to use. There's alot of good hydroponic fertilizer....fox farm,maxicrop,advanced nutrients,general hydroponics, earth juice, bc nutrients, and a ton more that work great....... Good soil, Good water, Good conditions ie temp/humidty, Be clean, Good ventalation, Adequate lighting, Get a carbon filter, have plenty of fans, get a ph/ppm meter to measure the strenght of your fertilizer and ph of your water, and number 1 is to be safe and make sure everything is working proper.
