First time grower, 5 dank bagseeds

Sup everybody, this is going to be my first real attempt at what will hopefully be a successful grow. Last year i ran into some troubles early nuteburn, bad transplants etc. So this year i think I've really done my homework by trolling the forums for all the info i could find.

So here are 5 dank bageseeds that i started about 10 days ago, pure sunshine no cfls so thats why they are a bit small/under developed. So far they are just in basic seedling soil "Petes All-Purpose Seedling Mix" I had just transplanted them today from some small "dixie type" paper cups, i definitely had a much easier go this time around.

I decided that to make it the least stressful possible on the plant i would just cut the cup at the seam and continue to peel it apart untill it would hit the bottom and then i would sort of scoop a clump at the bottom at let the extra dirt fall through my fingers untill i was left with a descent size seedling rootball. I then proceeded to putting them in there new temporary homes, unfortunately i had to use what i could find for now which should be enough for what i need them to do.

So here are the first few pics of what i hope to be my journal, since they pretty much all look the same at this point i just included pics of the furthest one along. I also just cleaned out all my glass so i thought i'd throw up a family shot pic of that.

Open to all advice and suggestions so please feel free to toss any 2cents you may have.

A bit baked right now if you actually read all this congrats, im sorry it was so long haha.

Heres an update been a few days, im freaking out my biggest plant has had some kind of bugs biting the shit out of it, i've been picking off these little orange/yellowish worm looking things and haven't seen any since, i've been checking vigoursly and i think that i've got the last of them. Under the leaves it does not seem to be affected. If anybody could shed some light on this situation i would appreciate it, if they are gone now is everything cool beans? It doesn't seem that the new growth has been stunted or anything but the newer leaves have been bitten, i've been checking though and no new bites have been appearing.

Also pics of the rest of the plants, and the underside of the biggest most bitten one.

gotta hand it to ya...your plants are looking healthy and beautiful. Don't worry about the bug situation. You handled it well. I know its scary to see something happen to your girls but remember, weed is a weed...they're pretty hardy.

Sup guys, another update coming round.

Are there any nute brands that anybody would recommend, i've heard BioBizz, Fox Farm. I also heard that Bat Guano is a must for the biggest plants, but i'd be happy with just some nice nug to smoke on at the end of da summer.

My biggest one has been bitten by some bugs and has recovered pretty well i think a bit of stunted growth. Another is a bit smaller then the rest but has always been but the leave structure looks really nice, there is another that also has the same description but is even smaller with shorter fatter leaves. And the last one is tiny it's always been a straight midget, 2 days ago i had to cut off nearly all the lower leaves because tiny red dots started showing up on them and they were spreading to the rest of the plant. Realizing it now i was spraying a type of "febreeze" type product that neturalized odors in the air. Sometimes when i was smoking even if the plants were in the room i would still spray the stuff, and i think the red dots i was seein on acouple of my plants was actually a reaction to the spray landing on them, not spider mites. So i have stopped doing that and haven't seen any new damage so i think were cool. When i start them on nutes i think i am going to get them into new 5 gal final pots before there roots get any bigger/wider.

Hey George...really impressed with your grow. Your plants are looking very healthy and happy. Yeah, I'd put them into their final growing container. Just be careful not to ruin any of the root structure when you go to transplant. You'll do great.
As for nutes..."Super Thrive" comes highly recommended to use when transplanting and regular feeding in combination of FF's "Grow Big." I've been feeding for a lil' over 2 weeks with these nutes and have been seeing some amazing results.
Check out my grow album on my home page and you can peep what I'm growing.
Keep up the good work, looking good brah!
