Morning Update:

I'm not entirely certain with what is wrong with Unknown but I do know I overwatered her so maybe she is still recovering. The soil is still really moist so I think I need to let her dry out.

Hey man. Where'd you get the unknown seed from?

The plant I've had the most amount of trouble with is the only bagseed I've ever grown. Ugly thing. Couldn't get it to perk up in veg for the life of me. Plants growing all around it just fine. It's like it had no energy.

Definitely not trying to say bagseed can't be grown properly. Just giving my experience, and that is that bagseed was my most problematic plant so far.

She does seem to be the only one giving me shit and we did get off on the wrong foot too when I underwatered her. This time it was over watering and for one specific reason: I had no idea my pots had run-off traps below them and when my girlfriend pointed it out I had to slap my forehead in the thought that Unknown had been sitting in this excessive amount of water for a whole day.

Last time I watered them I used a 7-9-4 solution, about 1/4 of a tsp. per gallon. I know 9 is high but this was the only nutes I had on hand that day and Unknown was hitting a Nitro deficiency fast.
 
Unknown is now on a flowering lights schedule as she basically grows an inch a night now. Pineapple is growing her buds and now has exhaust in her tent. Both staying at 84°F now.

How often are you feeding? They all look hungry, my man. Nitrogen.

Unknown looks like she responded well to your feed. :eyesmoke:

I am feeding them about every 3 days, Northern Lights and Pineapple are burned from nutes, they have yellowing tips so I am back to using 6.2 pH water with them. And they are not hungry, I am not sure if what you see is because of the heat but they have been in 90 degree weather for a couple days, Pineapple mostly but not they are staying at 84°F. They all have soaked soil still from feeding them 2 days ago. The leaves that are yellowing are because the top created a canopy over the bottom leaves and they are just not getting the light they want, I am not too worried about yellowing bottom leaves, unless they have a chance at producing bud.
 
Heat wouldn't cause yellowing from bottom up in most cases. It would cause burnt tips though, especially on top growth.

I've grown with some pretty poor light-penetrating CFLs and didn't have a problem with light starvation.

I just thought the progression was surprising throughout your last couple updates so I thought I'd chime in.
 
Pineapple is really coming along. Today she will feel the awesomeness of a 400 watt HPS... can't wait for it to be delivered!!! Also, Unknown seems to be doing well, started her flowering schedule a few days ago and since then she grows about an inch to an inch and a half a day, starting to smell really potent too! Beautiful!

Also I see on unknown only 4 colas, did you pinch the other ones? to keep them even you can tie down those bigger ones and let the smaller ones catch up thus forming a nice crown, especially with hps when they will get mad in stretching those two bigger ones can leave the rest way behind
 
Update

Wow, it's been a few days, eh? Well, Unknown has blown up to about 32 inches and started growing her buds on the main colas. Northern Lights has recently entered her flowering stage and since then has bushed up more and is now climbing taller. Pineapple Express has been giving me some issues lately, I have been feeding her every other day and am adding Cal Mag and Nitro (light at first, now heavy feeding) and have them balanced at a 6.2 - 6.5 pH level but, she seems to be changing color.

whoa dude! wtf? Auto is packing very nicely, NL lookin' helluva beauty, but unknown? stretching like that? JESUS.. And the wtf seeds lol, is it just one seedling or two different ones? the second pic looks like you sprouted an oak tree haha
 
Haha, yea, I know right? I don't know what's up with Holy Grail but I think she was heat stressed at one point, this is her recovery, a mutation if you will.

Thanks man, I need to raise the other girls though. Unknown definitely reached for the stars.
