Grow Mediums Mephisto-Reserva Autopot run #1

Lookin good. I wouldn’t worry about it, they are still very young and often are lighter like this to begin with.
Thank you for the reassurance. I am hoping so, this is my first run in coco and my soil girls were usually a deeper green.
 
They look fine to me bro I also run autopots plus lots of other sized pots and containers
 
Day 7 | 80 F | 56-65% RH | Lights = Fully dimmed @ 36" = 13,000 Lux/190 PPFD

Today is day one for the backup girls! Blue Toof and Fugue State

Realized I was following a watering schedule for 2.2 gallon pots and I am using about 3 gallons-ish. Watered with another 500ml of starter nutes yesterday 9/13/20 and the girls seem to have perked up a bit and found a little growth spurt.
Moving forward I will be increasing water quantity and/or frequency.

Slow start but I think we are looking okay for day 7! These 2 strains are supposed to be on the small side anyway.

Day 10 | 78 F | 56-65% RH | Lights = mostly dimmed (140W each) @ 32" = 17,000 Lux/248 PPFD
Curious as to how fast to start cranking up the lights.

Coco is drying much faster than anticipated and I clearly underestimated my watering needs. Couple of the girls got a minor claw, I assume it was the under watering? gave them all a heavy watering today of about 1 gallon each so I got about 25% runoff or so and let them drain a bit before putting the root socks on again. They are all fully saturated and back in their homes.

Growth looks okay, quite a bit bigger since day 7 and they should hopefully get a good boost from today's activities.

Day 5 | 80 F | 56-60% RH | Lights = Fully dimmed @ 440" = 12,000 Lux/175 PPFD

Just a few progress pics of the little ones. They seem really pale green, possible calcium deficiency? Maybe light bleaching? Any feedback would be appreciated. Maybe I am just nervous...

I add a bit of cal/mg . I use only Samsung leds on both of my boards. For me some need it, most do not. Not any harm in giving them a recommended dose.

looking good.
 
Day 14 | 78 F | 55-65% RH | Lights = 50% dimmed (165W each) @ 32" = 20,000 Lux/290 PPFD
Day 7 for the Fugue State and Blue Toof

Girls are looking good and have really taken off since their day 10 soak. Hopefully they didn't get too stunted.
Most of them got their introductory lesson to bondage today and were bent over to encourage side branching. They will be folded over a bit more each day until nice and flat in hopes for an even canopy and more tops later on.

Hi Mannik. I like your set up. I am currently growing with an HLG light. I get too nervous putting seeds directly into the medium. Mine grow in Rapid Rooters first and then a small pot, and then into the autopot system. Your sprouts look good and healthy to me.

I was a bit nervous this time as it was my first run with Coco. My method is germinating in paper towels inside of a DVD case wrapped with a t-shirt until they sprout. When the Taproot is a quarter inch to 1/2 inch long are then transfer into a shallow hole in my medium.

These ones had a slow start due to some under watering but are not picking up pace after getting it corrected.

I may change my method a bit and try the step up method next time. Transplanting autos makes me nervous due to the added stress.
