First time grower here. Eager to learn and get better with each grow.
Read up and watched YouTube to help with basic knowledge.
One of my buddies is helping and giving guidance along the way. Can't get in touch with him so posting for advice here.
Please excuse my dumbness as I'm not familiar with all the terminology yet.
I picked up some lsd-25 seeds from seedman.
Germinated in water and then paper towel method
Growing 3 just In case I screw up bad and kill one.
6 inch pots
fox farm happy grow and added little bit of perlite.
12 W LED growing light. My buddy suggested low Wattage at first
Light is about 5 inch away
I do have a 300W vipraspectra LED. plan on getting 2nd soon.
18/6 light cycle
PH around 6. PH Soil reader reads moist.
Temperature 73 low 75 high. humidity 60 low 65 high
At day 4, two of them are growing tall and lanky. Like 3 inch stems.
Third one is only about an inch-1.5 and appears the stem is a little thicker.
I had to help 2 of the seeds off. Third one was stunting bad so I had to remove that seed with more to.
All of them have two leaves growing outwards and grew third in middle.
I know I made a rookie mistake by not planting them deep enough.
This LSD-25 is supposed to be very forgiving to mistakes and I know I can get this rectified before killing them.
I did surround the two lanky ones with toothpicks to help keep them up.
So my questions?
Keep using 12W LED and raise them higher from plants?
Switch to 300W LED at about 25-30 inch?
Add a little bit more soil to cover some of stem?
Planned on eventually transplanting to 3gallon smart pots. But my understanding is 4 days is too wary for transplant?
Combination of a few of these?
Sorry for the long post. Just wanted to cover everything in OP.
Thanks for any future tips and suggestions
