11 day old white widow (do they look ok?)

It would help if you gave them full sun. That's probably where you've lost most of the growth. They can tolerate full sun, especially in your climate.

Perhaps they would do better outside the greenhouse? I don't know what temperatures you get in there or if it blocks sunlight in any meaningful way.

Be cautious of overwatering. Let the substrate dry out between waterings. It doesn't look like your soil is very airy, that might be why they're growing slower than expected. Don't worry though, plenty of growing season left!

its 23 degrees today, the plants are actually 10/11 days through the soil, how much direct sunlight would you give them?

I answered that right before you asked, haha. But full sun! They want all the sun you can give them

So even at this early stage? 11 days old? (not 3 weeks)

Thanks for your advice HandyGringo

Yes, they do just fine in full sun. They're used to even hotter and more intense sun than you can provide in Germany.

Splendid, I've already moved them back into the sun, just in time for the only cloud in the sky cheers again

Good luck, I bet you will see a big difference now that they're getting enough sun

Excellent cheers... I'll update you in a couple of weeks, fingers crossed!!!!

How old are they actually?
Originally they were 20 days old, then you switched to 13, then you switched again to 10 days old, then you switched to 11 days old.
Which is it?

Ive been smoking a lot of weed it's not my fault... these plants sprouted about 11 days ago... that is my final answer, sorry.

for some reason id used my wife's birthday as a starting point, this wasn't so, I purchased the seeds in Amsterdam 3 weeks ago.

 

[Biggsy747]

They look pretty small and underdeveloped for three weeks, honestly. 18 hours of light is good, but not too bright. Leaves look a little faded. Could mean too much water or light? Good luck.

3 weeks now and a marked improvement.

3 weeks today and plants looking a lot happy and healthier

Looks good!

Yeh I’ve invested in some useful tool, moisture/ ph level meter… fingers crossed.

Mine started slow too but my light inside might of not been the best. They’re thriving outside now I’ve been training and topping them to and left one regular been topped once to the 4 or 5th node . Just to see what the efforts pay off

I’m a bit concerned about my soil, seems to be taking a long time to dry out, tempted to repot in a better mix but I’m worried about upsetting them, what do you think?
