Clones growing, week 1-2 veg period

Hello folks, obviously I'm new here, and just started to grow three clones I recently purchased.

Two sour diesels and one black jack. Always one beats two for some reason.

I have few questions regarding the Ph level fluctuation. Is it normal to have it somewhere between 7.0Ph and 7.2? I tried to add some vinegar to the watering today and it went back to 7.0. I'm using soil. some nutrients like fish mix, very little used so far. I'm not sure how growth should proceed what time it takes etc.

These three clones have gained 2 inches since I transplanted them into these 1/2 galon pots 5 days ago.

my flowering grow room will be 110cm(~4.1ft) width 230cm(~8.3ft) height, and 100 cm depth. For veg I'm planning to keep them close to my eye so I placed them next to my desk so I can keep watching them from any sneaky spider or any other creatures while working

i have cut some of the lower leaves as you may notice from the picture attached, they dont yet have plenty of leaves but i think I did that for making a bit of future balance in the plant while its growing as I felt it was unbalanced. I like it to be symmetric and I hope it will follow.

Your feedback and any ideas would be appreciated, if you think they just look fine and I need to keep it going I would love to know for how long I know that question really depends on how long I want to veg before I flower , but the question here when would it really be mature enough to flower, does that depend on real factors, like how many leaves per node, or is it a 5 star leaf or 7 star leaf, etc? also I see some what I believe are pistils on the sour diesel plants, maybe because the lighting schedule have changed a bit on them or they are just showing their sex. they are almost 5.5' (15cm) right now.

Attached are pictures of lighting and some tools I'm using to major, your advice is really appreciated, i'm eager to learn because I love this plant, and It deserves some love back.

I hope you guys enjoy the pictures, the camera is quite poor but overall it's fine pictures.

5 days ago. Last Thursday 6pm

They look healthy. I dont think I'd cut any more leaves off of it until they get a bit bigger and bushier though.

Thanks a lot Hydro, that reliefs some subconscious stress . i won't cut anymore leaves until a significant growth have happened as you mentioned.

All my best,

So yesterday I found the roots coming out from the bottom of the pot. I decided to transplant them into a bigger pots, I believe thats a normal roots stretching, roots seemed very white in color. They we ere all almost the same growth little differences.

I will post pictures soon =)

So I have some clone s from a buddy he had a powder mold problem and had sprayed the mothers with baking soda and water to change the oh of leaves it had been a week since then he took the clones cut them and out them in water 2 2 and 3 that were from a flowering plant been 4 days no roots yet and they look like shit was a lot worse but I started misting the dome instead of clones themselves and they deff doing better think they will root look pretty bad but better then 2 days ago BTW seedling got damaged so I tryd to clone it it has roots bit not getting better going to out it into some dirt soon

It seems they are recovering. is there any roots development going on?

Well I can't tell yet they were really bad and are getting better no roots sticking out yet only been 4 days since cut don't wanna trash them cause there top shelf strains 2 came out fine but they had Lil roots sticking out now they taking off first time cloning and first time with hydro hydro is nuts never seen plants grow this fast the one s in my system are almost all recovered fully only been 4 days in the system for the good ones others still in humidity dome 75 degrees spraying the dome not clones once a day and giving them 20 min without dome on each day thrive alive b1 pH adjusted water to 7.0 they were really dry today so I rediped them

Better pic not sure if the brown patches are normal feeding off its self or if they Chen burns where there spotted could be the baking said spray still on leaves when clones where taking then they ate it ?

Nodes are all green and healthy just bigger leaves messes up one clone has one node messes up and one fine not sure should I just keep up the normal routine? Thanks a million I normal grow from seed in soil as you can see here 2 week old from sees

Hello again folks, I thought it would be worthwhile to show the progress. I have noticed that black jack requires less light than sour diesel for vegetative growth.

I used T8 6500k 32w for one black jack and one sour diesel. same amount of light black jack gained 3.5 more inches than sour diesel.

I used a 6500K led light for one sour diesel and it was 1.5 inches shorter than black jack; black jack can grow in the dark

I took two clones four days ago from black jack also attached. They seem to be surviving.

I started flowering process yesterday on the three of them two sour diesel and a black jack.

I will keep you posted on progress
