Hey^^
So I'm totally new to growing and got one or two questions regarding my young plant, any advice is greatly appreciated :D
I started off one Honey Peach Auto CBD at a west-side window a little while ago. Because the natural light source isn't sufficient there, I placed a 85W CFL (some photo-studio lamp) nearby which is running ~18h a day. It's now day 9 from planting & day 5 since it started showing itself over-soil. The seedlings height is ~7cm. I use around 9l pot with biobizz light-mix and some easy boost organic fertilizer in it. I'm watering a few times a day with a small hand humidifier at the moment.
To get to the point, my questions would be; is it in a acceptable/healthy size for it's age? And when should I start watering with more water (using a watering can or glass), and with how much approximately?
I plan to move her outdoor as soon as possible (at a sufficient size & age).
Thanks for taking some time to read through my stuff, feel free to give me any tips which come to your mind :)

She looks about right for her age. Be careful watering though, I’d be watering every couple of days, in a circle about an inch away from the stem to encourage the roots to grow and search out moisture.

Thanks a lot for the quick answer & assessment! ^-^ I'll try to adjust/confine the watering from now, I've read a lot that especially autos aren't very demanding in terms of water supply so I guess this approach should be pretty foolproof :smoking:Gonna try to update here if there's anything interesting going on :thumbsup:
 
That seedling looks great and is developing sub surface. I also use Sleeper 143's
watering technique with a 12oz. condiment bottle while they're young. Kinda like
a baby bottle.

So day one (popped up) was 5 days ago. There is nothing I can see that should lead you to be worrying about that seedling so early. Hopefully it will get where it's going soon enough.
I really like Honey Peach, but I've had bad luck getting many of their seeds to germinate and grow properly. I just harvested a problematic Honey Peach on Tuesday. Good luck.
