Do these look healthy?!

Hi all,

Literally just signed up and am completely new to growing. Would like some of your valuable opinions. Been doing loads of reading up before I started.. The seeds were planted before germination 8 days ago, all germinated, they are under the platinum p450 LED lights, biobuzz soil, humidity 60%, temps 22 day 19 at night (ordered a heat mat to increase this). The strain is critical from Royal queen seeds.. They are about 3 inches tall now and I think they are slightly lighter green than they should be, also from watching journals I think they should have more growth by now.

A little stretchy? But I could be wrong about that. My main focus has remained pretty low and bushy, and by comparison, everyone else's look pretty grown out, so it could just be my plant. In any case, they look pretty good. I might add a half to full inch more soil, for support and to better cover that plug, but otherwise, I think it's looking good so far.

If they continue to stretch and get frail, lower your LED. I've had mine anywhere between 6 inches to two feet from it. I wanted mine to grow a bit taller with its outward branches, so I raised it to about 18" from the plant, and it'll probably stay there until I put the flowering light up.

Veg: 240w for 4 plants + 1 sunflower
Flower: 500w with UV and IR.

Both are Lighthouse Hydro BlackStars.

Just adds that bit extra dirt. I thought plants would be larger by them time frames, some people only talk about vegging for 4 weeks! Thanks for all this info, just lowered the lights down slightly too!

From seed it takes longer. A clone can be done in veg a lot more quickly.

They look fine. I would add more soil on top of the plugs and Bury the bottom of the stems, but that's just me kind of a preference thing.
