Just a little picture update really day 18 from seed, the one in the middle is more bushy I think the runt of the litter is now the bottom right one, no runt no more, there green and healthy please excuse light on with pics, leafs slightly drooping in places think more water, soil still slightly damp so will water later on or morning.. Anyone see any issues with set up or plants then shout it out.

UPDATE.. Pictures of update, had flower for one week now, all plants have shown there sex, all 5 female. No sneaky males as of yet. 3 plants are growing taller then other two, had to raise other plants to keep with canopy, fingers crossed no issues yet.. The smell is nice little rub on the stem and I dream away! Now pretty sure 3 are sativa and 2 indica dominant. Anyway I'll update again next week. Bong on ladies!!

I can assure u I put seeds in cotton wool to germinate on may 13th. So 25 days old, they are loving the 400 hps light which they have had since sprouting, touch wood no issues as of yet and as you say they look a lot older!! I'll take it I'm doing something right!

Hey watchers and superfen, quick update, weather I've done right thing or not, but here goes, 2 things really, one I've started to get yellowing tips on top leafs, I've read nitrogen toxicity, so I was thinking off repotting my plants and flushing them out, I'm not using nutes yet just the soil, I'm 10 days into 12/12, be reading up some say yes some say no, so bugger it I've repotted, looking at roots it was a wise move, so scared of damaging plants when I removed, but slipped out nice and smooth, check picture for root ball, gave a good water and back under the light, ignore my seedlings, there dying I have no room for them in tent, got a couple of cfl lights Coming to veg and sort them out! Bong on ladies!!!

PICTURE UPDATE!! Ok ppl quick weekly update, after repotted my lady's 10 days in flower, they have taken great and made the right decision, the roots are already coming out of bottom, from 3 days ago, plants still stretching, guess I've got about another week, lots of pistols coming out, and bud locations starting to show.. I've bamboo some of the bigger plants Just to give a bit of support for my girls!!! Flushed the other day due to a very slight N toxicity, seem to have sorted it. Happy at how things are going, the only issue I've got at the minute is humidity, lights on flux between 60 and 65 percent, lights of 75 percent, the weather in sunny UK is humid at the moment rain thunder storm etc, I've put another clip on fan inside tent now below canopy and 1 above, I have 2 damprid or Croc odor called here in UK, in the room( not tent) and a small dehumidifier, just wondering if these levels will cause mold further into flowering???????? I've heard it not really a issue if I've got a good circulation of air etc etc that's it for now, til next time.. Bong on lady's

The soil I'm using is good enough to supply my lady's with what they need I only vegged for 2 weeks, I had a slight build up in my soil hence the tox, soil I'm using is canna terra, pictures speak for them self buddy, I'm not giving nutes until they show me signs of needing it.. So many ppl mess there lady's up with nutes, I will be feeding later on in flower, thank you for you're opinion mate, each grow is different, I had some awesome advice of a good friend that's growed for years, the soil and repotting schedule keeps my girls with all the nutes they need! I'm more concerned about humidity!

And not feeding your flowers is going to decrease your yield and your quality, but fine. Do what you want, it's your product. If I were you, I wouldn't be so afraid of "killing your ladies" by nuting too early. If you don't feed them at all, you're going to achieve what you're trying to avoid: failure.

Wow easy tiger, have you read full grow so far? Have you grown jack herer before? Any advice you got is great, I haven't the head room to veg sativa dominant strain for 1 month, indica yes sure, my next grow will be indica, and will veg for a month, about nutes and N toxicity again the soil medium or ferts, I use have NUTES in and I wasn't running a 20 percent run off sooooooo the nutes in my soil built up, hence the picture I put up, I flushed good got a lovely yellow colour out of system!! Hope this helps
