New Grower First Grow since the 90's! WW, Critical 2.0xl, BB Domina

[Deke]

It's been years since I've grown, and I'm super excited about it! Back in the day we grew outside, we grew inside, we grew whatever seed we could get a hold of, so to have all this incredible seed available is pretty unreal!

So I got lucky and went 6 for 6 on the seeds. They sprouted 3 days ago.
I've got; 2 White Widow, 2 Critical 2.0 XL, and 2 Blueberry Domina.
They are in 5gl fabric pots filled with Detroit Nutrient Company's water only soil.
Under a 600w 3 COB Led light to start. One more on the way.
These plants were supposed to go outside, but I think I'm going to go ahead and just keep them inside so I can better control the factors that might go on outside. Bugs, mold, weather , the freakin chipmunks digging everything up!
Your thoughts and ideas are welcome, as well as criticism. I'm open to learn everything I can from those that know far more than I do.
Here's a couple pics, excuse the redish color from the cobs. 3 days old.

Howdy mate .

Welcome to AFN . . You will get all the help you need and there is no such thing as a dumb question and as woody said , just tag us and have a cold beer ready and we will be there .

Thanks guys! I'll figure this forum thing out sooner or later.
Woody, they are all autos from Garden of Green Seeds (Crit.2.0), and Ministry of Cannabis(W.W, B.B. Dom.). I have Dutch Passion Auto Mazar seeds waiting in line for their turn under the lights when these are almost done.
But based on what I have been seeing, all the grow porn, lol, Dinafem and Mesphito are tops on my list to fill in next to the Auto Mazar's this winter.

Along for the ride

Well they've made the one week mark. So far so good. I have one dwarfing the rest, a Blueberry Domina. It was the last to sprout, and is now the largest? Go figure. I'm hoping I won't have to prop her up. I have a small fan arriving tomorrow to keep them moving a little, the one outgrew my time frame.
I've been super carefull with watering, very minimal more like just keeping the surface moist with a small spray bottle. Here's a couple pics. The single plant is the biggest one, about 4 1/2", and the rest about 3". Again sorry for the reddish color, to the naked eye it's not that red at all.

I hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend!

So do I go to take a couple of pictures, and I bump a pot and knocked over my tallest ceiling. It just slowly Falls right over on its side. I immediately prop it up against an empty water bottle, and then fashioned a temporary half-assed brace to keep it up. So if anyone's got an idea and a better way to keep her propped up I would love to hear it!
Do you think the plant was damaged by falling over?

 

[Deke]

Still alive as of now.

The water bottle seems to be working for you. But since you asked for other ideas.... a pipe cleaner. Bend a small hook in the pipe cleaner to go around the stem and use a binder clip or a clothes pin to attach the other end to the pot. You might even be able to just bend the end to hook under the little lip of the pot or drill a small hole in the lip of the pot.

I use pipe cleaners for LST. I saw several people online using them, so I borrowed the idea.

 

[Deke]

Good idea. I've seen pics of plants and seen what im guessing was pipe cleaners now.
I also found something at the hardware store this weekend ,while taking a shortcut though the garden section of course. It was wire covered in a soft rubber like coating made for plants. Cool stuff, thick enough to get a good hold off, and soft on the plants. Plus waterproof. I can see it making LST easier. Here is some like it.
