Day 16 from seed.

Since making some tweaks after reading all of the feedback on this post raise the pH a little they are looking healthier than before. Still waiting for them to shoot up seems to be slow growth here I’m sure it’s because of transplanting to early. ( simple mistake I made and trying to recover from)

Other than that I think they look pretty good let me know your thoughts! Thanks to all of you for helping me out as well.

So-called slow growth in seedling is actually them putting out roots before they start growing above the soil line This Will Go On for several weeks, it's natural

They look a little dry, in those big containers I would water 5-10 ml or more right around the base of the plant every 8-12 hours when they're seedlings. Remember think moist, not wet but never dry

Very nice!! I may ask you some questions from time to time seeing that! How long you been doing this ? Them look real good man I hope I can get something even close to that. Haha
Everything I've learned about this particular strain I learned from Hydro Red, he would be the guy to ask any particulars about this strain, however I can answer general questions, feel free to ask, following along, good luck!

You are going to see a longer period of time before they start going vertical just because of the bigger pot and roots having more room to stretch. Water in a ring around the plant, no more than every 2-3 days, and not much. Milliliters, not cups. At this stage the little seed-leaves that popped first will die before it need much of anything. You can also raise the light to reduce the intensity on the plants, but it may make them stretch.

Between now and repotting I would get fabric pots. Your plant size will be directly related to your pot size, and your yield will be based on the wattage and the plant size.

A 'master' grower can get 1g/watt in a square meter (the optimum goal) Half that is a good grow, and that is all based on a healthy plant. 1/4 for a newbie would be good, so 600w, 150g?

I have a few grows under my belt, but still learning, here-s my current grow. https://www.rollitup.org/t/superskunk-manifold.982650/

For weight, another thing to look at would be the manufacturers 'recommended flower footprint' (like 3x3, 4x4, etc.). If you can train those 4 plants to fill that recommended footprint you'll get your best yield.

I would say huge improvements since putting PH to 6.5 instead of 5.5. Thanks for all the help everyone ! Currently getting water when signs of drying is going on at 150-200 ppm and 6.5pm with water at room temp.

What % or RH should I be at in this stage ?

Thanks all! Have a great week and I’ll try to update on Sunday.

Humidity about 70% tops, but depending on how good the genetics are and if GG4 is sturdy, they can grow in low humidity too. My current plant went through most of veg and all of flower in 20-40%rH.

Just remember that they don't need much right now, and your top is going to dry out well before the rest - in the plastic pots it doesn't dry from the sides, and only a little from the bottom holes. So I would err on the side of too little water than too much, and if they are getting dry and start drooping you'll know it's time.

Yep same here.

early veg 60-65
late veg i started dropping it down to the 50-55 range
now in flower and ive dropped it down to 45-50, will keep it at this range until the end.
