These ladies have been on the 12hr lights for two weeks. Size has tripled and buds have set.
The power skunks and the Violator Kush's caught up with the Cremia Blue's, took alot of tieing and bending and the canopy is terrific now.

What did you start your seeds in? What temps humidity and initil light did you give as well, I've already lost more seedlings than I ever thought possible but that's beside the point, looks like you got off the ground great and are like me and love it when things grow well. I can't take anymore seeds dying on me or I'll give up. Got 12 germinating now and await instruction, I've grown before and never had probs with this step but I need help

Place dry seeds in distilled water'd shot glass overnight, I use the solo cups, drill holes (6) three on bottom and 3 on sides. Fill with Jiffy seed/cutting starting soilless mix and saturate with distilled water, let stand overnight while seeds soak. Place seed apx. 1/4 in. depth and cover with some wet soil. Cover with plastic wrap and rubber bands, after 24 hrs. place under apx 6in. away 24 hr flo's, after 48/72 hrs first sprouts will appear, take off plastic as each breaks ground. Maintain light 1in away from seedlings after sprouting. Water quality is important, use eye dropper and maintain moisture adjacient to seed as moisture dries from top down. Use very mild nutes after aweek. Temp 70s, humidity... 45% ish

Thanks so much for laying it out like that! I apprieciate it I hope to put some in the ground tomar after the cups have had time to sit! Once I get things going I'll send u a pic or two. I never had such bad luck but it seems part of it is that since I've done clones for a bit now I forgot how to treat seeds. I'm real confident that with this help I can keep the seeds I have from dying!

Well I'm almost to 48 hrs since putting my 12 for 12 germinated seeds ( had to go with what works for me in germination) and I have 9 of 12 sprouted, I'm going to wait till later today when the lights go off to rme them out of the dome, 8 hrs from now. Hopefully il have a couple more if not all out the ground! I shoulda thought about going this way earlier, it's hard to see past yourself sometimes. Hopefully in can report back in a few days and show some pics of healthy plants like I'm used to

Yeah no doubt I've been trying for over a month to gt off the ground. Seems that the coco perlite mix I was using was killing them bc now I'm 12/12 for seedlings and are out of the humidity dome and doing well! I do apprieciate your reminder of a better way to go. Now I gotta get some new coco

Yep, this weekend I'll give em some mild nutes. I may not wait 3 weeks to transplant, I intend on putting them in coco and don't want too much rootmass to develop before I get them in there 2 gal homes. But it does depend on the growth. Hopefully I'll get a package tomar with my new replacements for the ones that didn't make it. WW Ice Misty NL Bubble gum and Big Bud! And thanks again for not getting mad for me intruding. Btw I didn't really mention this but I'm digging your grow and that's why I asked your opinion, and the title grabbed my attention.

Keep us posted, I'll be folowing along

How much are you anticipating getting from this grow, and what is your plant number? I see you do 6 weeks veg, when do you switch your seedlings from floro to hid? I've not started with floros before, usually I put my 250 mh about 2 ft away and it's fine, then i step it up from there after they get three sets of leaves.

I change the flo's over to the big lights at transplant (three weeks). These 12 should keep me smiling for quite some time I'd imagine.
