Day 9 update
Soil was really dry so I watered with 2 ml / liter of cal mag and voodoo juice. All seems to be going well. The seedling that had the helmet head is lagging behind the other.
I think I will start feeding nutes starting on day 14 at 1/4 strength and see how the girls respond. Any tips on feeding would be appreciated.
Lights will be moved to 20/4 starting tomorrow day 10.
Questions:
Do I feed with every watering?

Day 12 from sowing...
Gave pots a through watering with plain ole RO water, pH at around 6.4.
Overall I'm happy to see where I am, considering this is my first go. Think I am going to top the group, as I have been reading @autobeast threads. Its amazing to see what these plants can handle.

Whats up everyone!
Lights haven't been moved up yet and are still on 20/4 cycle.
Long time no update! So after reading more on the forums I have determined that you start counting how old hey are when you see true leaves. So up until now I have been in error and today marks day 14. :smoking:. The @HSO-Mark Humboldt Seed Organization blue dream auto's are kicking ass for this first time grower.
They got a nice watering tonight of pHed RO water, voodoo juice, and 1/3 strength cal-mag. I probably should have watered them yesterday but live and learn. Most likely, I'll start nutes at a 1/4 strength next watering.
The bigger girl will be ready for topping in the next day or so. I'm think the other two are about 1 -2 days behind the other. Thanks @autobeast for the topping thread! After topping I'll be attempting to do LST to try and keep them low.
As always advice or tips are welcome!

Todays post!
First picture below is the topped girl from day 15. I was able to top another one today on day 16.
Middle picture is the middle plant that was helmet headed after it popped outta the soil. I may be able to top it tomorrow or later tonight as it grows. If not I may try some serious training to keep them low.
Last two is from the girl I topped today.
Overall, happy for how its going.

Sorry for the delay all life happened.
Lots of changes. Plants were topped on day 18 with me fimming the small one on accident. Shit happens and lesson learned. All plants responded well to topping.
On day 19 I LSTed some with materials I had on hand. Will be getting string and doing some sliding knots so I can pull them down easier.
Day 21 was the girls first feed of advanced nutrients MGB at 1ml/l and calmag xtra at 1ml/l. Have seen no signs of nutrient burn so I may up the dose next feeding.
QUESTION: Do I skip a feeding or nutes at every feeding? There doesn't seem to be a consensus on this.
Photo below was taken today at the start of day 23. Next post will have some more detailed photos.

As requested here are some pics.
The plant with the red tag is the runt of the litter. Since I accidently fimmed her I have been pushing her hard.
The other two are doing great. I have done some LSTing and selectively defoiling for light penetration. I have already figured out these plants are tougher than the fragile nature I read about.

Hey Guys and Gals,
Girls are doing well! Upped the nutes today to 1.5ml/l MGB and 1ml/l of calmag xtra. They last got nutes on day 21.
I LSTed some more today, probably the last time before flower. Also selectively defoliated about every other day.
