New Grower 3x3 Auto journal. First time growing in 9 years and looking for advice

Day 15 for the fast bud Stardawgs and they are starting to really take off. They will be getting another round of ph'd water only tomorrow and I will be testing the run off ppms to gauge when I should start feeding. The Gas Reaper Hellbenders are moving along nicely also, the one had more stretch than the other so I'm giving it some support until it thickens up. Got the temps at a pretty constant 76-78 with about 55 percent humidity.
I’m a new grower (in the last couple weeks of first grow now), but I’ve been really happy with straight happy frog. I start my seeds in a peat pellet, then into HF once the root starts to poke through the pellet. No burn.

Your plants are looking good - keep it up!
 
Did a watering today. Each girl got 6.1 water with Great White mycorrhizae. The ppms of the Stardawgs runoff were 1321 so they are coming down with each watering. Stardawgs runoff ph was 5.8 I'll have to bump my pH up slightly next watering to try and get that up some. The hellbenders runoff was over 1800 still so they have a while to go before they get food. All seem happy after the watering
 
Hey guys was curious if anyone can confirm that this girl is already showing sex at day 17? Seems way early based off other journals of the FB Stardawgs. Thanks for any info

Day after the watering and everyone is looking happy and enjoying the slow increase in light. I'm running the spider farmer 4000 and just dialed it up from 60 to about 70 on the dimmer. I'm almost positive the Stardawgs on day 17 are starting to flower and that definitely seems way early to me but maybe they will explode in the next few days ha the hellbenders on day 11 Or 12 and are starting to gain mass on the stems. Also enjoying some really nice indoor pink champagne flower tonight that's really hitting the spot hope everyone is doing great and plants are growing prosperous

yes -> u have a girl! :yay::dancer: ppp
 
Update. Stardawgs are hitting day 20 and the hellbenders are on day 13. The Stardawgs got there first feeding last night of general hydroponics three part but only at half strength with half dose of calmag as well. The hellbenders still only got tap water that has been dechlorinated and ph'd. Tap water ppm is about 130. All seem happy today. Had to hit the ac on finally since we got a slight heat wave for the rest of the week. I'm treating the air in the room the tent is in and it's doing a great job of cooling things down to about 78-80 steady through passive intake.

Hey AFN here's an update on the girls. Day 24 for Fast bud Stardawgs. They got a tap water feeding yesterday. I tried to get the pH up more.by using a higher pH water of 6.7 but my runoff was still in the upper 5.9 area. I guess I should be a tad more aggressive next time. Each have their own structure but definitely similar. Starting to stretch more and more each day. Gas Reaper Hellbenders just showed sex last night and are currently on day 17. They received a tap water feeding yesterday also and will start with their first round of nutes next time they get watered. I also just got in most of the advanced nutrient line and will be switching to that instead of the general hydro brand.

Beauties so far. Water in at the correct pH. Nutrient and watering pH is going to be different than the soil pH. I wouldn't stress about runoff numbers unless you're in coco. It's about making the nutrients available to the plant as you add them. @Proph really knows how to explain it better than I can. He is a real master. (there are several on here) If you end up in the infirmary he will scold you, but with correct advice and proper procedures to fix things.
