3White Widow & 1Lemon skunk 2weeks

[LazerHaze360]

hey guys, these are two weeks from sprout today. they are femmed seeds from seedsman. 1 ww is growing faster than all the rest. I just transplanted them to the 5 gallons from 16 ounce cups,roots held the soil nice and im keeping them out of the direct light for atleast 24 hours.the cups had light warrior medium and i water with RO water. The mix now is (FFOF,lightwarrior)75% and (peralite)25%.
Lower leaves have yellowed some , maybe mag def, or nitrogen?

if i can get my hands on some unsulphered blackstrap id give em a tsp a piece, hard to find locally.temps are 65-70with lights off 72-80 with lights on.38-50%humidity. exhuast fan above light. 1 fan. i need another. do you guys thinks a big square fan or another small one?

do they look alright?

everything looks fine to me . You wont need a bigger fan for a while but I would suggest getting an oscillating one once they grow to about 12 inches.

If you wanted them to veg faster I would throw some floro's in there too! I always veg with floro and than flower with my HPS.

didnt have the digi cam with me but the plants took well to the transplant and the soil change straightened them out profoundly. i think the bag of light warrior medium was dried out straight from the hydro store and the plants werent very happy in it. today is just over 2 weeks veg. will have a picture update by week 3 at the latest.

I want to make sure i veg long enough to make the 5 gallon pots worth using. at first i was thinking 5 weeks veg, but now im thinking 7-9 weeks. they are femmed seeds but im hoping for atleast 2-3 females out of the 4 plants. I am looking to yeild atleast 6 ounces total. I'd be really happy with 8+oz.(400w hps btw) i will be using organic nutes and blackstrap .

hey lazor. You dont have to listen to me, but seems to me that transplatting them that early is going to be a waste of your nutes. Those roots are defiently not near the bottom so most of your food will just seep through them. Also I'v heard that transplanting a few times will create different root zones thus making them stronger and more spread out. But looks really good man, cant wait to see your progress.

hey hempy, thanks for the comments. I dont plan on feeding them for a couple weeks. I've also heard about using multiple transplants but i had forgot about it . Im not really worried to much about waste because ill probably use only 2-3 tsp of nutes to feed them maybe once every other watering to start.

Whats great about growing in a bathroom is that there's a drain in the middle of it. im used to closet and outdoor grows.

Anybody think it would be worth lining the walls with mylar or hd aluminum foil?

2 1/2 weeks UPDATE

2 1/2 weeks UPDATE

time for an update! all plants are at 2 1/2 weeks now. temps in dark at 65-70 controlled by radiant heater, and temps with light on at 72-74. Lowered light several inches yesterday and ill probably lower it several more inches in the next couple days. looking for that 76-80 degree range i think. Plus the light is still over 20 inches away.The Widows are definitely receiving some nutes as the leaves have flushed in with nitrogen and have a glossy appearance.The Lemon Skunk is lagging behind.(in the picture, the LS is the plant at the back left of the room.) Going to move the ballast outside the grow space not too long from now. Its not getting hot, but it will eventually get in the way of the plants. I plan on LST'ing and vegging for atleast 4 more weeks. the biggest plant is forming its 5-6 node, so after a couple more nodes ill start tying them down.

They are looking great, but to establish a better root complex I wouldn't have went from cups to 5gal. Maybe 1gal or 3gal would have been a little more efficient, and then to the 5gal lastly. But they are looking good man keep it up!
