Hey bud, she is growing! Photo looks good. I look forward to updates, hopefully we can help each other out along the way, our girls are about the same age. I just got lucky so far, still a lot of time to experience many issues (flowering with a 600w/you guys should have a good time watching me wrestle climate control:) HEAT!:(

G'day guys just doing another update on the little girl (hopefully) she is definatly growing just slowly this is what she looked like at 3am on Monday morning image.jpgAnd this is what it looks like now (1am Wednesday morning)image.jpgOddly enough tho the soil still doesn't look to be trying at all
So I was just tending to my clones and remembered that I popped a bean :) And it was bone dry...so I watered and thought Id share a pic...I JUST watered and it's not as saturated as your little girl...

She's gonna be fine...just don't water until it's dried up and then water lightly...when you transplant you may want to use a different soil mix

Could I continue to use this mix with added perlite? I was thinking about going half this (cause it says it promotes rapid root growth and has weak slow release fert) with half something else (yet to be decided) and add some perlite for added drainage

I like that it's holding moisture cause when it's bigger I won't be able to visit it daily sometimes more do it will go good like that but it's annoying at the moment

Prince mds advice is sound if use it then u just might be able to progress to the next step (veg)and u never no maybe even flower...
Iv grown quite a few times many successfull harvests, this is just my first time growing indoors at this time of year and this is the first time Iv had trouble with the beans popping and it's only the 3rd time using this particular soil the other times Iv used it outdoors and in summer so it's obviously the cold weather, but yea I'll be sure to take on her advice get some nice top of the range soil and add some perlite thanks MD and Greenhouse
