thats so funny you mentioned that reiko!
one of the first indoor grows i ever did was a small cabinet with a four hundred watt bulb in it
i also put an aquarium on top
the pump noise covered the sound of fan and the hydro set up i was running
once someone even pointed out a "funny smell" in the house
i told them it was the fish tank and how i probably just needed to change the water

plus fish are cool to look at while you are high

I have a radio on top of it that I turn on when I think people might notice the fan

It's been two days since the transplant. The seedlings look kinda droopy still but I can see new growth at the very least.

Here are the before / after pictures of both of them. What do you guys think?

[Athos]

Well today is day 14 and the seedlings have now completed their 2nd week of life, they recovered real quick (2 or 3 days).

I'm amazed at how quick this things grow indoors compared to outdoors, both plants are working in their 4th pair of true leaves.

Both plants are just over 1 inch tall, and have all the leaves right on top of each other.

Here is how they look

Day 19 today and for a couple of days one of the seedlings have been showing signs of stress (leaves canoeing up), so I decided to transplant again from their current 16 oz cup to half gallon pots.

Here you can see the roots of the stressed plants

And the other one

It's update day. Today the plants are 21 weeks old and quite a few thing happened this week.

For the whole week the plants have showed a noticeable smell and this is the first time this has happened to me in the seedling stage, so the strain promises to be quite pungent.

Also, both plants have very developed sideshots growing at every node, I read somewhere that this is a side effect of rootbound plants. Although it's an unintended consequence, I'm glad of it because it'll help with keeping the plant short and an even canopy.

I topped both plants, removing the 5th set of leaves, I believe I might have fimmed one of them by accident.



Here are both of them

This one has a 4th set of leaves that came not as a pair, but as a trio.

And here is the other one.

I meant 21 days, 3 weeks old...

Another exciting week, it is day 28 since breaking soil. The plants finally dropped the cotyledons 4 days ago, so we are officially out of seedling stage and entering full vegetative stage.
Both plants have bushed out a lot, while keeping a very low height (8 cm, so just a little over 3 inches), maybe it was the early topping
I did 2 weeks ago or the relative close temperature between the lights on / off periods. Just yesterday I did some minor LST to expose some of the lower shots. I think both plants might be showing preflowers but it is so dense that I’m not really sure.

I think I will veg for another 2 weeks to fill the canopy and then switch to 12/12. Both plants have been 10 days in the 2 liter pots; I plan to transplant again in 5 or 7 more days, making it the end of week 5 and put them in their final pot of 6 liters for its final week of veg.

Last but not least, picture time; I’ll include the 21 day and 28 day pictures so you can compare how much both plants have filled out.

This plant had some leaves curling up in a taco effect today when the lights came on, I believe it might need some water.


And here is the other one

Last time the curling up happened was due the plant been kinda rootbound and it went away as soon as I transplanted. The question is, Should I transplant from the current 2 liter into 6 liter pots now and switch to flower or wait 1 week before switching?
