New Grower First Real Grow -- Sour Crack

They grow strange sometimes. I think when there are only two leaves we focus on every detail. When the plants grow and get bushy, there are loads of weird leaves we just don't notice so much because there are so many. Lol. They are looking good, just watch your stretch. They look like they are getting a bit lanky. If they do then you can add a bit of dirt around the stem to aid with support.

Cool, thanks for the reassurance! I had definitely noticed it growing lanky, but hadn't even considered that, I will add a little dirt and keep an eye on it.
 
Here's an update, of what I guess I'll officially call day 7.

This is just under 36 hours after my post yesterday morning. I'm pretty amazed how much its grown, two little leaves are shooting out from under each of the two top leaves, making 8 total now. Starting to get super stoked, hope she's gonna start to blow up quick from here.
 
So here is day 9. Tomorrow I think it's gonna need some watering, I'm going to add a little more cal mag and fish mix. I had only 1ml of each per gallon last watering, to introduce it to soil and plant. I think I'll do 1/2ml per liter this time, so then i'll be at 1ml/liter at the end of the week which is on track with feeding schedules I've seen.

Anyways, pictures:

Here's top-down.

I think she's looking good!
 
Looking good man!

I grew several sour crack strains and simply loved it. Not big at all. Mine ranged from 10” to 13” but one huge dense cola. All of mine were done in 55 to 60 days and I pulled about an ounce to ounce and a half dry. You’ll love em
 
Just chopped a Sour Crack on Thursday, about 12" high. I did some Lst'ing to open her up for those inner budsites. Looks to be 1.5 ounces of rockhard nuggets. 61 days, and about 5-10% amber. Good Luck!
 
An ounce and a half would be awesome, congrats on the successful grow! I'm not sure what to expect really with these lights so I'm trying not to get high hopes early though. Mines already about 5 inches high so judging from you guys it's about to start bushing out. Unless perhaps, the light is too high? Its about 23 inches above the top of the plant right now, should it be lowered?

I'm interested in doing some LST too, but am a little nervous as she's my first, and only, plant right now and I don't want to hurt her. I'll look into it and maybe do some very gentle stuff to get the hang of it.
 
Went back to look at my grow diary and see that at day 18 the autocobs were moved to 14", they started at 20". BTW, flowering for my SC started on day 25.
 
Ill lower the light a little, it started around 29 inches above, and as the plant grew into it, it's now about 23 or so inches, which is maybe why its growing so tall.

I've been weird with my days, but I'm gonna call this day 12. Wednesday will mark the two week date since it popped out of the soil, and I'd like to call that day 14 because it just makes sense to me.

Soil is just slightly moist two inches deep so I'll water later tonight or tomorrow.

Sorry about photo quality, I'll try and find a nicer way to take photos. Maybe move it out from the light or something.
 
Some bad news, woke up in the night to check on her and the planter had fallen over, the plant got bent up a good bit. I think my cat must have gotten to it, I guess it's time for a real closet door.

I was able to prop it back up decently, but I'm super bummed out. I'll take pictures when I wake up in a few hours.
