Looks good man (blurry pic though =/). Nothing interesting to see yet though. Give it a bit :)
lol, thats what u get when your attempting to use a 3 pound camera whilst almost blackout drunk shortly after a small line of molly(trust me, a cocktail i wont soon repeat)......and that was my 5th attempt and was the clearest one i had, il take another tomorrow as it has made IMENSE (sp?) progress in the past 36 hours, the fan leaves are almost twice the size of the cotyledons now, i heard word from my connect that the bud i plucked the couple seeds from was a late harvested (1 week late as grower was on vacation) Indica Dom. Blue dream from greenhouse seeds, and i was told it was a very fruity smellin phenotype, so im eager to see what i come out with, my last "blue dream" seed was a no-show, so i am now germing to dark brown nicely mature seeds from some decent mid, and i guess im now turning this into a comparison between "mid-plant" and "dank-plant", both grown in the same conditions to see if strain is REALLY more important in determining final quality than conditions

Oh I know... I know
yo, first leaf set is now bout 3 times the size of the cotyledons, and u can planely see the second leaf set starting up in between the first, progress on this "blue dream" is bout 3 times as fast as my first baby already, seems to be a VERY vigorous strain, and capable of handling pre nuted soil from seed, if it turns out female ima probly keep it as a mother, seems to LOVE nutes even when its 4 days old lol

somewhat bad news, or potentially AWESOME news......unfortunately what im about to speak of my shitty camera phone wont pick up so i will do my best to describe it, so here goes....

ok, i know a red/purple stem can sometimes mean some type of deficiency, but my stem on my little sprout is a nice light green, and the cotyledons and first true leaves are a deep dark green, but i noticed something kinda cool looking, while the tops of the true leaves are are dark green, the underside of the leaves are a somewhat dark purple color, and the new growth, has a light purple tint, is this some type of deficiency, or some type of early color changin phenotype that i may want to (derfinately) keep? i just thought the fact the tops of the leaves are dark green with the contrasting purple on the bottom was strange...to say the least

I would love to see a strain that was purple from the start of veg or even start of flowering. Good luck!

id say it was some type of temporary phosphorous lockout, just matasticized in a different part of the plant, as the purpleing is already starting to fade :(

pics of the new seedling this afternoon when my brother returns from work with my phone, doing very well, the first true leaves are aout 1 1/4 inches long, the 3 prong leaf set is about 1/3 inch long, purpleing has faded and its back to a nice dark green, also just transplanted into a 2 gallon pot which will be its final home untill harvest (do to space concerns) i managed to leave the soil from its previous half gallon pot 100% intact so there should be NO transplant shock, the roots had already mad it to the bottom of the half galloon one :O (LARGEST root system of any plant ive ever seen this small)
