im having troubles in the start from seed til it´s getting big in veg state

im having troubles in the start from seed til it´s getting big in veg state, it´s so slow grow phase, i used a tray with plastic cover over to get humidify up, 12 days later the third leaves started showing and i transplanted it into 4 gallon pot with 40l air per minute pump. Still going slow, anyone has any good ideas that might improve the quality of the grow and also speed up the process?

Thank you in advance

Probably need details of yer grow.ya know, all the pertinent info

Pics help to

They are now 15 days old, auto Gelato born in small rockwall cubes put into clay pebbles nets above the pots.

Water temp fluctates between 20-23 c if this is okay, i would like to not bothering putting icebottles in the pots each day.

I add 200ppm Hexi Hydro Growth - npk 3 + 2 + 4, will give stronger doses soon, they are only 2,5 inches high.
G.H Roots activator, dosage like package says.
i try to keep ph between 5.8-6.2 it usually goes higher later on the day, around 7.5, i have to check every day.

Temperature fluctates between 21-28c depending on if the water runs out in the humidifier and weather outside.

Humidify is around 50% this is the one i have https://www.professionalgrow.se/en/ultramist-mistpro-4-humidifier


I would like more control of my humidifier now while they are so small, might have to invest in a more expensive one, it works good when they become bigger tho. Anyone who has any ideas?

They take their own sweet time at that age. As long as it is healthy, stay the course.

The problem could be as simple as you're keeping the rockwool to wet.. Happens a lot to first time rockwool users.. I also think humidity is a way over rated aspect of growing weed.. The only thing its ever gotten me is mold.. Were there any roots coming out of the RW when you plopped it down in the hydroton? Show us a picture of this ugly girl of yours..

Ive spent a lot of time trying to ease and quicken this transition.
While there are things you can do to help speed things up, there's only so much you can do. After they sprout up a bit, they pretty much stop and put all of their effort into establishing a good root mass before growing much.

If you take the time to look through my thread, you'll see some of the stuff that I have done to help speed this process along.
Getting away from rooters and cubes was the best move imo.

Baby plants love T8's.

Fragile back at it. DIY RDWC with the things.

Rinsing the system out with fresh water tonight so figured I would share the process some this time. Goal is to transplant tonight. Build of the veg system is in the link in my signature. This is my 5x5 veg tent, will share progress of the flower setup as I start prepping it here in the next...

Yeah i guess i will have to be patient, which im not.
I have seen ur threads, These are my dream im aiming for, somehow i will have to maintain during the trip to get there tho. My next step will be connecting tubes to my pots and make it a recurcilating deep water culture system with a chiller, having some troubles finding the materials tho. Would be great with infinite money and loads of space to have extra tents to take clones. <3

Yeah, i had that problem the first time. Mold is no fun, that's bad luck, i try to keep it under the . Yeah, tiny roots showing itself around the clay pebbles. i used a 1 inch rockwool since i overwatered the big 3 inch rockwool cubes last time.

I run a 4 bulb 2 ft T8 light in my seedling/clone tent. They spend the first 3-4 weeks of their life about 1ft under it.
