Just to give you an idea of how much worse I was before becoming active here. This was my true 1st attempt, at 21 days old:smoke:

Day 21 or 22, not much changes, slowly upping the nutes, and I think I saw lady parts today. The one that has always been under cfl is still much taller than the one started under led but both unfolding the same sets of leaves. All in all these look much better than my last try

Day 26, they just a good feeding and are really filling out quickly! Tucked the first leaves today. I think i underestimated how good cfls work for vegging, they definitely get a fair amount of light from the led and t5, but mostly from the cfls right now, im just not sure what i can clip the cfls to next to raise them

re:starter plugs, i put a vertical hole through them so the taproot takes the path of lesat resistance and doesn't grow horizontally.

re:feeding schedule, most light soil mixes are good for two weeks, then start the plant on 0.5ml/L of veg at every watering. always best to overfeed (get a tiny bit of nute burn on plant leaf tips) than underfeed.

my first plant was terrible, tiny, stringy thing. but it got me stoned


all the best,

Thanks for the advice, ive started nutes at week 2 this time vs 3 last time. Today i went up to 6ml a+b since last watering was 4ml and didnt burn em at all. Great tip on the starter plugs also, im really curious to see what the roots look like to a couple plants that didnt grow straight in my first batch. I know the plant i yanked last time had only one tiny root coming through the cardboard like side of the plug.

For comparison purposes heres the biggest of my last 4 at the same 26 days
