Looking good!!
Right on. Thanks for the good vibes!Nice plan. You were smart to get the 7 footer.
This is going to go well
I just learned how to prune more effectively this year after an older experienced grower shook his head at my feeble attempts and taught me his style. This will actually be my first attempt at topping & LST’ing though, and I’m sure I’ll make several errors...it’s one of the reasons I germ’d more seeds than necessary. If I can get one good Cannalope Haze properly LST’d, that will make me feel accomplished. But I never get things right the first time I try...or second time either, for that matter...That looks really good, I like it. That should work just fine in a tent too.
I've grown a lot outdoors and some indoors, and I've never done any type of pruning, trimming, lst, scrog, sog, etc etc... I wanted to try LST on my GSC auto, but I chickened out.
Unfortunately, they’re a bit challenged. I’m annoyed at myself for causing them problems so early, so I’ve held off on posting updates as I try to get them into more photogenic condition.How are the babies doing?
No problem. Aside from needing the bigger pots they don't look bad at all so once you transplant they should be more to youre liking for sure. Soil does grow abit slower than coco, but if they had been in begger pots a week ago im sure they still would've been closer to mine than what they are currently. So yeah, transplant asap and don't overdue the teas knowing the new soil from each transplant can feed around 4 weeks and keep us updated.Thank you very much for taking the time to check out my seedlings, @MATTYMATT726 ! And much thanks to @TheDifferenceX for the assist!
I sincerely appreciate the guidance, and will follow your plan. I was wondering if I got behind on transplanting, and now I have confirmation that I did. I had been trying to eyeball when the leaves reached the side of the cups as the sign to up-pot, but most of the early leaves are drooping so I can’t tell their true length anyways. After reading your post, I just pulled up a couple cups to check their roots, and some plants’ really look over crowded down towards the bottom.
At the current evaporation pace, I think the soil should be dry enough for transplanting tomorrow afternoon, as I just watered at midday today. As you recommend, I’ll up-pot into the FFOF with 30% perlite, and only other addition will be some Mykos...I won’t start with the tea yet for a few weeks. Hopefully the seedlings will forgive my missteps and get into a faster growth rate without any transplant shock.
I’d definitely be stoked right now if they were the size of the two you posted at 18 days...and not just that size, but that healthy too!
Thank you again for the advice!
Right on...thank you again for pointing me in the right direction! We’ll get these lil ones back on track!No problem.

I appreciate you getting me the assistance, @TheDifferenceX ! I’ve been bouncing around thinking I’ve underwatered, overewatered, too much light, too much wind, etc. So many different issues seem to look exactly the same to me...perfect example of why I’m on RIU, trying to increase my skills...Awesome, i'm really glad this worked out. I didn't want to steer you in the wrong direction, so I reached out to Matt. He's been helping me for 2 months. His pictures speak for themselves. He can grow some quality bud. I'd trust what he says and follow his suggestions.
My non-expert opinion was going to say overwatering. Honestly, that's all I had.
