New Grower 1st grow started

Hey guys, I'm just posting an update on my grow.

So far so good, the second 2 seeds I germinated are doing very well, they sprouted 4 days ago, and are now about 4cm tall each with very healthy looking seedling leaves, and this morning I could see the tips of the second set of leaves showing themselves.
I've given them nothing but water so far, and that was just once to soak the soil when I potted them, and once this morning because the soil felt a bit dry.
I'm planning on starting nutes this weekend, as they'll be a week old by then, and I'll probably only use nutes every second feed anyway.
The first plant that germinated is trying its best to survive, and has produced 2 tiny sets of leaves, about 2mm long each, but I don't think it'll come to much.
I'm very tempted to put it in a small pot to see what will happen to it

I've taken a picture of each plant everyday to show how they're growing

Just a little update on my grow.
Things are progressing nicely. The 2 main plants are growing really well, with 1 growing a bit faster than the other.
The little plant I thought was going to die, has made a comeback and is growing well.
It'll be a small plant, but hopefully it'll produce some bud.
They're on 1ml of bio-grow per litre now and seem to be responding well to it.
I had a bit of a temperature spike one day, and the leaves on the plant in the second pic felt brittle from it, but once I got the temperature down and fed some water they were back to normal after about 20 minutes.
The edges of middle finger of the first set of fan leaves on the middle plant are curling down for some reason. I googled it and it said either over watering or nitrogen toxicity, but I can't see how this is possible, because I'm very careful with the nutes, and only water when the soil begins to feel dry.
Any ideas what's causing this?
Heres the pics.

They look OK to me. Is middle plant near a fan? Sometime mine go like that when too much breeze. Try to chill a bit. Plants are weeds and will survive unless you do something silly. Like your temp thingy. Use one like it myself. Weather station with remote sensor. Leave sensor in tent so can check temps while watching telly.

Going to keep an eye on your grow cause I use biobizz set up. Got journal going if you want to have a look.

I am using a dif nuts schedule to yours so should be good to compare.
 
I bought Biobizz heaven, and algamic to try and stick to duck commanders Biobizz schedule as closely as possible.
I've had to get plant magic magne cal because it's the only cal mag supplement my grow shop has in stock.
I haven't been able to figure out how to get the display to show the remote temp, so I just leave it in the tent all the time.
Ill check out your journal. You're right, it'll be interesting to compare how they go on different nutes
 
21days and going strong

Yesterday was my 21 day mark after sprouting, but I'm only able to put up a report today.
I was away for the weekend so I hadn't seen my plants for 2 days.
When I went up to see them when I got back this evening, I was greeted by what I can only describe as an explosion of growth. The two main plants have gained at least an inch in height, the stems had thickened, leaves had gotten bigger, the little leaves that we're sprouting from the nodes on the main stem had grown out and are starting to look bushier, and most importantly they're both showing female hairs at their tops.
As you can imagine I'm a very excited boy this evening.
The small stunted plant had put on an extra set of leaves and is starting to get the bushy leaves on the stem. I'd say it should be showing its sex by next weekend.
I also fed them again this evening, with 2ml bio-grow, 2ml algamic, 2ml heaven, and 0.5ml magne-cal per litre. The next feed will be plain water. The ph of the run off is 6.3
Here are the pics
 
Sorry guys, I'm having difficulty uploading pics from my phone, so I'll try again

Day 30

Took these pics today.
Fed 3ml of bio-bloom, heaven, algamic each per litre, 2ml of bio-bloom and 1ml of top-max per litre for the first time.
I added 4 1200lumen 20w cfls four days ago, and the growth has skyrocketed.
I also got a ph meter, and I'm currently getting around 6.5 in my runoff from all 3.
All 3 are starting to show female flowers, but I have no issues with smell yet.
I have a 4 litre tub of fresh linen ona gel.
Would this be enough to mask the smell of both plants?
i have a scrubber and inline fan, but they're not as silent as they're supposed to be, so I don't want to have to run them unless absolutely.

Week 7

Yesterday marked the beginning of week 7, and things are coming along nicely.
All three plants are well into te early stages of flowering, so I changed the light to the red 125w cfl.
The biggest plant is 18 inches tall, the middle one is 15 inches, and the stunted one is about 8 inches tall.
I have to say the smallest one is surprising me, I never expected it to perform so well.
Heres the pics.
