Loving soil grows so I'm in. The girls may be a bit leggy, if the continue you can build up a little soil around main stem for stability. This probably means your light might be a little to high. IMO. Good luck with the grow! [emoji3]

Hello all. So the time has come to actually start a journal. I’ve posted a question or two in here regarding germination, and what to do/expect regarding sprouts not quite free of their seed casings. Thanks to all for pointing me in the right direction and offering info and support.

I now have 3 sour cracks above ground. 2 still had their helmets on this morning. I got antsy and removed them using a couple of toothpicks. When I got home I noticed one still hadn’t opened up. After a closer look it seemed like it still had its membrane (is that even the right term? Lol!) stuck to it keeping the tiny leaves closed/folded up and in. Anyways took matters into my own hands (literally) and removed it as well. So I now have three girls free and clear of their shackles. This is an open invitation to all to feel free to share any suggestions/experiences with me along the way.
Setup:
3x 3 gal airpots, 4x2x6 tent, 3 Autocobs from our very own BigSm0, and I’ll be using TaNg’s feeding schedule with the AN lineup

I figure I’m a few weeks away from needing a carbon filter and fan and would appreciate any recommendations that you all may have. Wish me luck and may we be celebrating a great little harvest in early May!!

P.S. I recently noticed a member on here @MikeyB420 named his plants after some famous sisters so taking a page out of his book, I’ll be raising Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe!

Just watch out for the Bruce Jenner's

Yeah, unless you want that stretch then you good. Otherwise 1" a day until your babies pray

That’s exactly what I was thinking since SC is supposed to be a somewhat smaller plant. I’ve already lowered the light a few more inches. Had it at 4feet when they first broke through. Then went down to to 42, then 40 half a day then 38 the other half, going to leave it at 32-34 until around the 3 week mark then they’ll each get their own autocob and I’ll see how they react to 24 -26 inches..

thanks for the advice on building up soil to support!

Ok. Figure it’s time for an update. I’ve been a bit concerned with the progress so far. Not too concerned with them being a tiny bit leggy because as mentioned earlier I’m hoping for a bit more height since this is a smaller stature strain. But I can’t help but feel like things aren’t progressing as they should. Basically after reviewing many other grows it seemed to me as though most others are typically further along in regards to leaf development. That led me to try some changes. I dropped my light down to around 30 inches for half the day and I ended up going back up to roughly 36 this evening after noticing a slight “stress” on the girls. It seems As though a slight twist has developed towards the last third of some of the leaves. Now, on to something else I did besides bringing the light closer. I wasn’t planning on giving them anything but water until Friday or later into the weekend but seeing what I saw as a lack of development I decided to give them a light feed last night. I gave them some A&B grow along with voodoo juice at a strength of 1ml to about 1.3L and each one got between 250-300ml. Perhaps that’s behind the slight twist? Anyways the 2 taller ones are 3 inches and the shortest is 2.5. Here’s a group shot.

Here’s a closer shot of the “condition”
By the way, temps are steady at 24 and humidity is 30. Should I be concerned with the humidity and add something like a bucket of water to the environment? Thanks in advance and hope everyone had a great weekend!

A lot of nutes for that age, rh is a bit low, so if you can rise up to 40%, looking good, but getting light closer as 36 for long you'll grill the babys

So, I’m happy to report that my environment is steady at 24C and 40%. Also I’ve noticed some progress in regards to the 2nd set of leaves. So things are looking up. I’ll hold off until the weekend before giving them any nutes again.

start can seem rather slow,most of the growing is happening under the surface.they should be happy enough in a big pot dont need so much water.
keep er lit.
