I haven't got a hygrometer... So i have no idea about humidity levels... I know why you're woeried. I am quite aware that i have a perfect condition for fungus growth.
It happens that humidity in the town I live is amazingly high. So.... yeah... might i be screwd!

Reason I asked is because when I was suffering high temps I used a cool air humidifier, sat it outside the cab near the intake, cooled the cab and raised humidity but sounds like thats the last thing you need. I think you would be in a better position if you lost one of the lights, 2 of the pots and added an out take fan. You could set up a little scrog net and maximize your space with one scrog'd plant with lower temps etc. Just my opinion bud. Don't worry about mold just yet,
Yes! 3 Seeds sprouted. They are breaking their way out the seed's shell.... trying to spread their cotyledons.
1st one
2nd one, still fighting to find the right direction!
3rd one, already passed the second one!
Atleast it's above surface already!
Im amazingly pleased with the 100% germ rate. Thats great!
Im actually worried with their growth.
Gotta develop a way to scrog them... so they dont touch the lamp and die... plus it might help keeping the inner area "organized" so air circulates nicelly.
Maybe a new set of pc fans and a new power supply would solve the heating issues.
)) Its about time i worked soil mix so i repot them.

Check the pH before you repot bro, it could be low with the chicken pellets and EWC. Adding some dolomite lime will help keep pH in check.
Looking good though bro, awesome to see them germ'd.

So... I took longer to arrive at home today and one of the seedlings dried a lot and suffered...
It shrinked as hell, but with some water it has shown a slight return. Still worries me, though.
In order to avoid further problems with the drainage issue, I've decided to repot them ASAP, regardless of their stage of growth cos I know it only happened to it cos the pot was already small, temperature has been high and the drainage was slightly excessive.
So I watered it and went to the store in search of suplies. Couldn't find perlite, nor vermiculite, nor leca (expanded clay pebles), nor coco fiber... But I ended up purchasing organic Cow's Manure for less than 2 bucks, so it wasn't entirely bad!
I'm pretty happy because I know cow's and rabbit's manures aren't too strong in nutrients so It shouldn't be agressive to the seedling's roots when they start growing there.
I've also scraped the floor where my chicken would make their nests. This earth is sure to be full of their shit, feathers, cracked eggshells... It's been very well decomposed and the result is a brownish toned earth. Slightly Muddy.
The Rabbit's manure been decomposed long time and became a black earth.
There's also a black earth, which probably been made out of mix of leaves. Pretty good too.
Worm's manure is suposed to stabilize ph, and I don't think you can ever possibly have TOO MUCH of worm's manure in a earth's mix.
So I've covered the botton of their pots with rocks, so their roots don't ever grow too much and end up staying soaked in water, cos this might lead it to rotten.
Then, used the masterblend. The dosages where "freestyle", didn't want it to retain too much water, but didn't want it to drain fast either. I'm feeling pretty optimistic with the result I've seen till now.
I wish I could have waited some more before repotting them, but it was some sort of emergency and had to be done.
This is how it ended up:
The plants in the picture are in order, being the first the left one (blue pot).
It's still struggling to release from seedshell, I helped him out, but didn't want to injury it either.
#2 at first been growing under the earth and had trouble breaking out. Hopefully I could notice that, so I dug it very carefully and it started then to spread it's cotyledons pretty healty... but guess what? It's exactly the one who dried out. Poor one, looks helpless now!
I watered it very gently and lifted it from the ground. If it remained sticked, whould already been a gonner. I cleaned it's cotyledons so clay wouldn't remain sticked to it and I think it already shows it's gratitude regaining it's vigor slowly.
The damage to it's cotyledons is visible. I think it already has a reason to stunt but only time will tell us.
The #3 is just vigorous and fine:
I am feeding them the fishtank's water. It's a 5.000L container where my father raises his fishes. Ornamental stuff.
It's water is full of organic matter and is just the juice a plant needs!
He's got several species to plant acquariums with, in this tank, and it's so fertile that they grow imensely!
So it somehow enriches the poor media where the seedlings are currently at... I gotta help them break through this dirty clay so they can reach the good mix. And I noticed that repoting them alctually helped it out, now it can expand, and humidity is good good. Not excessively soaked but pretty "loose" and wet.
I wonder if they should be closer to the lamps... but I'm afraid temps may increase too much, drying them out.
It's currently at 29°C... and from older experiments, temperature raises like 5~6ºC if I put it closer to the lamps.
Exaustion sys has to be re-made. But it's no surprise since it's all crap recicled from old pc.
Many issues, but I could do all at one, fix a scrog, fix fans... It can be done and I'll start to plan it.
Thank you for reading today's post.
I would apreciate any comments about it.

If the injuried Seedling dies: Which seed would ya'll pop:
Diesel Ryder, Jet 47, or another lo'ryda ?
I think that if you invest into a Jet47 breed with reg LR#1, perhaps you could end up into something sort of LR#2'ish cos of the sativa side.
Diesel Ryder for the fruity phenot? Quite a Hybrid, seen very prolific plants online.
The truth is: I gotta try them all, but I'd like to know your experiences with such strains.

Meanwhile: Reg Photo's outdoor
Pretty much all of them stretched up between cotyledons and 1st true leaves, then a little gap again, and second true leaves.
I Might consider topping/FIMming them soon, so they don't grow as fucking maniacs.
If the 5th node is good for scrogging, might be doing that on the 3rd.
They'll vegetate for long time outdoor, so I gotta consider this long maturation and growth that still gonna happen. I can't simply let them grow like trees.
My #2 (the so called "vigorous one" ) isn't that bad... just all the way mini.
#1 is just Chilling... not worried at all...
Ahahahaha the so called #3 is dead, basically... Stem still green, but it's leaves are shitty.
Poor one... dried out once and never again been the same.
I am germinating (atleast trying) a Jet 47. Even though it would be more reasonable not to. CosTwo plants in this small pc is already something. Air circulates better, I guess it would ease temperature control.
With three pots its quite compact, tight and that could end up being like pushing the limits.
If that jet 47 ever germs, Maybe I'll put it in the pc and LST, else drop it inna 700ml plastic cup and keep it mini (outdoor), for the fun!
Ahaha does my grow look like screwed up?
I'd like to talk about a taboo in the world of autos:
Cloning
Have any of you ever achieved such?
Revegetating
Anyone?
Share your experiences!

Whenever I can add a new plant to camouflage the outdoor I do it.
The chosen plant this time is a "Mamona" (Caster Oil Plant) it's suposed to love dry climate and the Leaves are A LOT LIKE indica's leaves...The difference is that they're all the way WIDER and longer. So it's great to have it nearby!
I found this plant "dying" in the thrash today when I wen't to buy food and a coca-cola for my lunch, when I saw it drying the shit out of it I had to pick it up, then I've planted it in a small pot In hope that it will re-vegetate. Since it is suposed to be like a "weed", strong and invasive, I guess it might work!
The good thing about it is It already has an auto's size... a little bit more of growth and It would be a bushy thing to layer my plants with.
This is how it's suposed to be when healthy:
I like that!
I might even plant more of this plants in the front yard, so people can see it from the street... Like that, such shaped leaf might hardly be associated to cannabis of any sort. I can always hope.
I've removed lower branches as they been damaged and broken, plus I don't want it to keep drying too fast.
It's looking poor...
