Hey, so I’ve got 2 purple lemonade on the go in my tent. 1 of them struggled to breakthrough the top soil (I dug her put a bit to help), she’s deputed well since but her true leaves are tiny compared to the other plant, any tips or advice on this? Is she gonna grow as she should? They’re now day 5 and I’m not sure she’ll be worth the wait.. attached pics of both (bad camera/shit photographer sorry) .. you’ll be able to tell which one I’m speaking about .. TIA

She's busy building a root system to support the growth coming. They're all slow the first week or two, once she has some feet underneath her, she'll take off.
 
Yup, first days everything is going on under ground. Don't panic, everything looks good ;)
So reassuring, my temps aren’t ideal just now, I’ve purchased a small heater but it’s not great so gonna upgrade to one with a thermostat to keep it steady, I’m a bit worried if I water too much/too little, is my light too high all the usual worries haha

It's all a learning game brother. I see you use fabric pots. If the pot feels wet/cold one the outside there is still enough water in the pot. As soon as it get's dry give it a watering. Don't overdo it and stay close to the seedlings.
Below 20°C/68°F plant growth slow down, so try to stay around 25 á 27°C/77 á 81°F is the optimal temperature, but a couple of degrees in either direction don't do that much harm ;)
Try to keep the humidity between 60 and 70%. In the beginning you can go to almost 100%, but you're past that point anyways.
Lights... Keep 'm as close as you can. If you keep your hands under the light at the position your plants are going to be and it feels to hot then it's to hot for your plants as well.

Good luck and keep sharing the pictures. We like picture :thumbsup:
 
Looking fine! It's always stressful and way too easy to compare grows with the guys on here who are just wizards. Look at this pic I borrowed from another guys thread. See those little bitty leaves on the top? Then look at that monster root thats attached. All the growth early on is down below. Hold steady and let it grow!

Guess what? You'll still worry a bit when it's your 100th seedling too. You'll just talk yourself out of it then! First two weeks I still want them to move a little faster! It's the slowest (visually) growth period of an auto.
