That's perfect. Just spray it with water when you don't see any condensation and watch that the temperature stays between 65-80°F. As for the lighting I don't recommend 24 hours because the roots need time to rest and you get faster vegetative growth with a defined photoperiod. I kept my seedlings at 18/6 to get them ready for the veg light cycle I was gonna be using. I don't think 24 hours is detrimental or anything and people get good results I just like the idea of letting my plant rest. I'm not too sure what your soil is made of. Is that coco?

If it's growing in soil conditioner you're probably going to run into pH problems at some point. I'd mix your conditioner with organic potting soil and perlite and carefully transplant the seedling but you can try growing in that until you would normally transplant. I think the humidity will help a lot if that seedling was used to getting about 40% RH.

I think theres enough space between all the branches for all the bud sites to get light. I dont see any major shadowing on the leaves. I have 1 drop light with 2 bulbs on each side in there currently for the side light. A small panel overhead with 2 led light bars also. The fan is weak but strong enough to circulate fresh air and lower humidity. It is in a small closet that is light proof and i throw a sheet around the door frame to make sure theres no light penetrating. Its working pretty good for the setup, just figuring out the Male Female situation because i have no clue what strains these are.

This is my current plant, back in day 13. Mine is growing very, very slow as well compared to well, everyone else. The first pic is the current day 32, the second is back in day 13.19F44106-38CE-4DED-AAB8-EBDFD01076E7.jpeg8BE68555-1198-465A-B5BB-3356F9A021D1.png

Yeah if it's all sacs and no pistils "That's a man baby!"

2 months should be plenty of time to show alternating nodes and pre-sex, like the pistils you are seeing on the known females.

My understanding is that females also tend to have long crisscrossing stipules (the tiny pointy leaves on either side of a flowering site) and males tend to have short fat ones that do not. That might give a little guidance before switching the lights.

Outside to inside daily? I'd NOT do that!

Its a little slow, yes. I have some plants 10 days old (from sprout) that suffered thru super low RH for 3 days. 7 days with a new humidifier and 50-54% humidity. 4 sets of leaves, about 5 -6 inches tall.

I officially switched them to 12/12 on january 8th, so a little under a month of flowering. Not to shabby, i think. Anybody else, feel free to tell me what you think!

I'd trim the popcorn buds off down low and let her focus on those nice buds up top. Looks good

Im so nervous to touch this plant lol i gotta watch some videos and get some experience before im confident enough to trim and defoliate. I was training another plant that i had to cut down because it hermed after a month of flowering, afteri trained it. So there goes my confidence on training lol
