Autoduck update [HASHTAG]#2[/HASHTAG]. Got Aphid problem so battling that. Have had great weather here so growing nicely even with the stretch.

Will update my own log with full details of all my plants etc.

Beautiful...she is looking great!! I will update the front page now. Hope you get the aphids under control!! She looks like shes going to be a big girl! Well done so far Dave!

Yup just part of growing here. I will add that my plants got no artificial light for starting even. Just acquired a little t5 it sure helps.

I grew for many, many year vegging plants under T8 flouros and T5s. When i first got my t5's, i was obsessed with keeping canopies even and extremely close to the light just like i had been doing with my T8 shop lights, then i learned about the lights and realized that the plants could be much further than i had them. Ironically i still train them flat and keep the plants 4" or less from the lights. They really are fantastic lights, and they are all you need for vegging small plants.

The old habits die hard... Today I put another round of seedlings to soil. The CBD Haze will come next as i will have to wait another day or 2 since they just started to grow tails. Interesting how different the strains behave on popping shells and looking even as babys. Almost like little green humans. I like that. Sending some seedling energy around the globe to give it a chain reaction, good vibes!

4" he said. They'll be fine, he said.
Well, the Cookies don't like it ... calcium deficiency?

Typically, the Sunrises fucking love it ...

Had 'em all out in the sun today ... why not? it's free.

The top batch are 2 Daiquiri Lime F2 auto-hermies, a King's Kush auto-hermie and what I think is a Think Big auto-hermie.
Doing rather well at 19 days ... maybe I should have entered one of these?

The Cookies are the bottom row, the Sunrises the top ...

:smoking:

@Bud Wiser - wow man...i am stunned to see a deficiency at that age!! I feed early and start cal mag within 15 days, so i dont have that problem even in close proximity to LED

Me too Mr @912GreenSkell .. my lights must be more powerful than yours then, ha ha ha
Joking aside, I think 4" was a bit too intense, and they're all on a mild calmag ... I've raised the T5 to about 6" now, see how they get on.
The other two seem to be ok, and observing how the seedlings all stretched towards the same spot under the lights, I'd venture that as this one was directly under the 'hot spot' (dare I call it) the intensity of the light was just a bit too much.
Or I could just be talking bollocks and it's a runt!

Can I switch to the Sunrises if I want to? They were started at the same time, and, well, I think you should let me, that's all.

Sorry bud...rules are rules!! And the rules state that yes you change your mind as many times as you want as long as you make your entry plant official by day 30. So yeah you are good to go! I wanted this freedom for exactly this reason!
Hope it all works out for you bud!!
