saw your name and i just have to say it...... I LOVE CHOCOLOPE... never forget it
 
i just LOVE WEED period sto...haha. but that name sounds like a tasty strain alright!
 
Three sprouts now. I believe the light was a bit t0o far from the plants, because the two taller ones seem to be stretched quite a bit. They don't appear to be in danger of falling over, however. The light is now closer, so I'm hoping it won't be a problem anymore. I must be honest - I have not been doing a solid light cycle. I have a timer but I haven't been using it at all. That's something I plan on fixing within the next hour or so. Here's what I've got:

Yes, they do look a bit stretched. Do you have a small far for air circulation? If so, I would suggest you have it blowing gently on your seedlings. Just enough so that they vibrate a little. The air movement will help to strengthen their stalks.

i would not worry about the light cycle to much as (AUTOS) grow based on age not light but also keep in mind more light more bud!!!!! hope that helps

I actually don't have a fan yet; that's something I've been meaning to invest in. Will do though -- thanks. :)

These aren't autoflowering seeds. :/
 
All three of my plants have started working on their second set of leaves. The tallest fell over when I was adjusting the lighting, so I used piece of a metal clothes hanger to keep her standing.
Still three plants in one pot. I'll post an image when I get a chance.
 
Removed one of the plants from the pot and put it in its own. Chose the smallest of the three to remove in case the transplant didn't go well.
I'm worried about my remaining two. Several splotchy brown spots have appeared. What does this mean?
 
It could be one of several things. Really need to see a picture to know better. One of the whole plant and a close up of the effected leaves.
 
Hoping to get this resolved. They're definitely not looking any better. I want to say the browning started to occur as soon as I removed one of the plants. Maybe I hurt the roots of the other two when taking out the now solo plant. Photos attached.

edit: The first set of leaves (not sure what they're called) is also starting to yellow quite a bit on all three of them. They're kind of shriveling. Not sure what is natural and what I should be doing differently to make things go more smoothly. I still haven't gotten a fan. Small, flying bugs are a bit of a problem, but I don't know how serious to take them. They usually die from the lights.
