Hey all, first time grower and first post! I have a 5 day old Zkittlez OG auto from Barneys Farm going. After looking at several other growers pics, I feel that she may be behind or at least taking her sweet time. What do you think?

I'm growing in soil, with a HLG 100 v2 light about 24" high and on a 18/6 hour cycle. I started her in one of those expanding pellets within Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil. I did this because I've heard the FFOF can be too hot for seedlings. I pH'd the FFOF at the start (pH ~5) and added some lime and got it up to about pH 6.5. This past weekend was super rough with temps outside well over 90F ("feels like" around 106F) and living in a mobile home it was hard to keep the tent temp down. Highest I saw was almost 89F in the tent. It was fairly short lived and I was able to correct the temp to around 77-82F. I'm just worried about her after seeing other pics. The only thing I've given her is just some dampening sprays of pH'd water with some House & Gardens Roots Excelurator Gold mixed in

Thanks St. Tom, glad to be here! Yeah that's one of my dogs, Khloe. She was a rescue so not for sure, but I think she's mostly Cane Corso. I usually just tell people she's a mastiff mix lol. I also have a year old Newfoundland pup

Nice, love the name! Life wouldn't be the same without them. I have a quote hanging on my wall, "Dogs are not our whole life, they just make our lives whole". Though being a vet student, dogs (and most other animals) are my life lol
