First babe poking her head out. That one had an insane root tail after minimal time germinating so I figure she would come up first. Just waiting on the other two now
 
Seedlings at this stage should be watered everyday right? I am waiting til the circle I water down starts shrinking towards the seedling and never let it completely dry out because they definitely need water right now right? Trying to not over do the watering so I only ran about 75ml down for each bag but I'm thinking I might do like 150-200 ml per plant in a tight area to ensure that I'm watering down to the bottom in a tight circle. I haven't had any run off, but I also haven't watered the whole bag yet so it's more than likely getting eaten up by the surrounding soil. Don't want to make that rookie mistake and overwater but I do know that a lot of people recommend watering daily for seedlings. I'll keep you all updated when I water them again :woohoo:
 
Next batch I'm running zkittles autos. Just came in the mail today. These we're free seeds from seedsman because of an issue with a small, $6, overcharge on my original order of only 6 white widow autos. They accidentally charged me shipping twice.

I would recommend seedsman for purchasing seeds because they made the situation right by crediting me $25 dollars in loyalty points and sending me a 10 pack of free seeds worth $60 because of a $6 overcharge. I only ordered 6 autos to begin with got 3 free fem photo jack herer seeds. Now I'm sitting on 16 seeds, 13 auto seeds and 3 fem photos for under $70. That's not counting the three I popped in the tent already so total I got 19 seeds for under $70. I know this isn't normally how it will go but they instantly made their mistake right and I received my seeds state side in about 11 days. That's pretty quick if you ask me!

Also their seed selection is dumb big and they carry literally hundreds of breeders seeds. With very good freebies. I got 2 packs of king size hemp papers and stickers lol. I know it's just stuffing and added schwag but hey I appreciate it! The papers came with my original order so it probably is a regular thing that they do. Nothing special came with my compensation seeds. But hey I'm not complaining ten free seeds is like half a years growing in my tent

Daily update time

-Temps ~73°f
-RH ~55% should I run a humidifier to bring that up a bit?
-RO water 6.5 pH 175 ml per plant in a tight circle. I upped this a bit from yesterday's watering still not runoff so I think that will be my cycle for a few days til they establish more growth
-No nutes yet

Both the seedlings that popped have shed their shells as of 10 mins ago when I check on them. They are finally spreading their wings!
I'll update again tomorrow

Pretty Cool Seedsman hooked ya up and y’all had good relations back and forth. Definitely tag me when ya do the Zkittles, I am going to get this strain one day, lol.
Another good company is Mephisto Genetics. 98% of my auto collection/ seed hoarding :haha: are from them. Just recently ventured into Magic’s Strains. And have not had a bad customer service between either of them.

I have been seeing a lot of good things about Mephisto. I made my seed choice without really doing too much research and that's a rookie mistake but they looked good from the grow photos on the seedsman site so I went off of that and looking at grow diaries website. I was debating between Mephisto and royal queen seeds, I think that's the name for the next purchase but that won't be for awhile because I think I'm going to run some photos or the zkittles next. Still up in the air. The freebies of the jack herer seem tiny.... Like I have never seen a seed look so small before so I'm a little skeptical but hey you never know til you try it right? Reviews of them have been very good though and the grow diaries site has shown me that the freebies of these seeds from seedsman are legit. If you guys haven't checked out that grow diaries website I recommend it because it has almost every strain from every breeder and at least one person on there has run it. It's kinda cool to see and learn the Nute requirements and how well they stand up to certain conditions. It will vary I know with different conditions but hey at least I can see what doesn't work and that helps me, with not know jack sh*t!

Edit real quick. Reason I ran autos first is the quick harvest and not having to mess with light cycle. I think after a grow of the autos I will take on the photos because of increased yields, hopefully, and just to experiment with all kinds of seeds to see what I like the best. I am interested in learning fimming or topping and possibly cloning so photos are my only option to learn the other half of growing the sweet goodness
