Following along buddy
I'm at two weeks too and also just purchased a TS600 haha, my plant is loving it.
I have had it at 25" above the first couple days but noticed some slight curling so raised it to 27 last night
Happy growing and

Welcome to the party @DMHeights the more the merrier! I'm set at 20" above canopy, so I'll check on them when I get home, and see if I need to go up any more.

I let mine grow within 12 inches of either my cob or blurple no problems as of yet

 

[DMHeights]

Yep, That was my plan, just let the plant grow up towards the light
I actually zip-tied the light to the cross bars and have foam blocks under my pot instead haha, didnt like the dinky ratchet straps it came with

Yh i did a little diy to give me like 5 more inches on blurple light

I did the exact same thing about watering. Good to know I'm not alone I'm definitely going to follow your grow

So I know I did an update yesterday, but it seems like the girls are digging the new light and feed. There's noticable growth on both of them in just 24 hours! I'm guessing we're pretty much out of the seedling phase and moving into veg. I also checked the moisture level, and it was starting to dry out already, so the look to be getting hungrier as well. I gave them about 1/3 of a gallon last night, which brought the moisture meter up to 7 for both, and they were down to 4 today.

I'm really pleasantly surprised by the amount of perfume they're letting off, I could smell them as soon as I opened the tent. I'm sure I've said this before, but I really wasn't expecting much, if any, odor until they were in flower. I got to be honest, I've really missed that smell!

On to the pics first Bubbles, the star of the show:

And the Mayor, I'm thinking he's gonna surprise us in the coming weeks:

And the group shot, think I can fit a couple more in there?!?

@Sami welcome grow buddy! Always love have people share in my successes and failures! It's the best way to learn!

Another little thing I forgot to mention. I've been having issues with temps, hanging around 70-72 lights on and high 60s lights on. Since we've got snow coming in tonight, and next week we're looking at lows in the teens (I love spring, summer and fall here, but winter can blow me)! So I decided to put another space heater set on low in the room my tent is in. I went down to see how it's working, and temps are up to 78. I'm hoping this will help them grow up and out even better. Humidity had dropped to the mid 40s so I turned the dehumidifier down to let that gain a few more points.

So I had a little scare this morning. When we woke up, the light in our bedroom wasn't working, everything else was working upstairs. When I went to warm up my car, I decided to check if there was a blown breaker (our bedroom light is a fan/light combo, and neither were working) and sure enough a breaker was blown.

I decided to check on the plants, since when I flipped the breaker, I heard the dehumidifier kick on. You guessed it, the outlets that my heaters were on were on the same circuit, which apparently is the same circuit that my bedroom light is on! What's annoying is the outlets I'm using are on different sides of the basement, so it seemed a safe guess that they were separate circuits.

Anyways, the girls temp dropped down to 59° and the were without light for probably 6-7 hours. I've reset the heaters to low to avoid overloading the circuit again, and I'll see if I can find another outlet somewhere this weekend.

Despite all that they're still looking good, and I noticed a different smell in the tent this evening, so I took a good whiff of The Mayor, and I'll be damned if she doesn't smell a bit like a good stinky cheese with a strong hit of skunk. I'm really excited to see how the both progress.
