Iv germinated my seeds on the 2nd of december planted them on the 5th in happy frog soil. I have a 400watt mh light on them running 18 on 6 off and the temps stays at about 85 degrees. Iv only been giving them water when the soil looks dry. I feel like they should be bigger for almost being a month old.

prolly just a slow starter. if she doesnt explode in veg from day 30-60 then u should worry. but she looks fine.

Let the soil dry out. Consider using a spray bottle to water with. The idea is to keep the soil slightly moist but most importantly even moisture. Stay on the drier side and roots will explode. Consider a root excelerator or bacterial innoculants. Top growth is a direct representation of root mass and health. Cater to the roots and the plant will show it. Good luck on your grow. Peace.

85 is toooo hot! Drop those temps to 75-78 during the day and as low as 60 at night but if you keep night and day temps within 2-5 degrees you will significantly reduce stretch. This is very important durring the first 2weeks of flower. After that then slowly drop temps at night to 65-70.

Looks great. Slow starters are strong finishers. Remember the tortoise and the hare, slow and steady.

Also a lot of pics you will see on the internets are exaggerated as to how old/young they are. ("Here's my OG Overdive Steroid Kush at 2 weeks and 12" tall with 8 nodes" type of shit)

Nice plant, keep it green and growing.

Not to quick, id say about 3 days then the soil looks dry. And I have 5 gal smart pots to transplant in. Is that to big of a jump? And I should prob get a fan to lower those temps as well too huh?

Plant looks great, 5 gallon would be fine...do what works for you. Growing is all about personal preference. If you are happy, then great...good luck, be safe.

yeah definitely get a fan on dude. Also as far as the five gallon smart pots, I really like fabric pots and those are the pots that I use. When I transplant ceilings I start them in 2 inch Square starter pots, around 2 weeks from breaking ground they are ready for 1gallon fabric. There they stay for 2-3weeks then into a 5 gallon fabric.

you're going to have to watch your watering methods a little closer when you have small plants in big pots it's very easy to over water. But the fabric should help you out with that with increased gas exchange at the root zone.

nah not at all! more room the better, she will probably bloom with new growths onec she's got more root space. Just be mindful not to stress her roots out during the transplant :) she's looking pretty :) Oh yeah, plus with bigger pots you can concentrate your watering round the side to help encourage her roots to spread out :) tis all good :)

if their boys then you don't want them basically as they will pollinate your girls and fuck your whole crop, unless you are going the root of keeping one male in your box and stopping and pollen growths (I'm a bit hazy bout that as I read up about it and decided it was too hard for me as a beginner lol) but as for nutes, as long as you're using soil, your plants don't need any for (and some people differ in opinions here) 1 to 2 months as the soil has it all :) when you transplant, you will be giving them a new supply of nutrients so shouldn't be necessary :)
