My Little Ladies

Hope everyone is off to having a good weekend! First time grower here just figured I would post some pictures of my new seedling and ask what others thought if they felt like leaving a comment or giving any advice! It would be greatly appreciated! I soaked the seeds for about 18 hrs, then transfer to the paper towel method for about 48 hrs. At that point each seedling had about 3/4 - 1 in of taproot. From there I put them into Root Riot pods. After about 48 hrs in the Root Riot the taproot was sticking out the bottom of the pod. So at that point I decided to transplant them into a 6 in Jiffy Pot. which is were I am at today. I did add moisture to the Root Riot pods when I transferred the seedling into them... but with the leaves curling I was thinking I might have over watered at that point. Although the taproot that broke through looked good and healthy with decent growth over that time period. Since I was worried about over watering, when I transferred to the 6 in jiffy pot I did not water the added soil yet. Was thinking it might be a good idea to allow the soil to absorb some of the moisture from the Root Riot pod first. The soil I used in the Jiffy Pot is a 1/2 and 1/2 of FF ocean floor and happy frog. They are currently 4 feet under a 315 CMH adjusted to 50% with no humidity dome. The current Temp 76 degrees and Humidity 48%. I guess my questions are at this point is should I water the newly added surrounding soil and also should I still be placing them under a humidity dome? also as far as watering the only used has been bottled water at about 6.3 PH nothing added. Thank you ahead of time for taking the time to read my post and also if you decide to leave a comment or advice Thank You Very Much!!

Sorry! Forgot to add the pictures! here they are...

sorry about the last one... took it upside down

They need virtually no water at the water at this stage. Looks overwatered to me.
Keep humidity high but better to underwater.

Should look like this, pointing towards the light

Holy crap man! What a long and tortuous way for a baby to be born. Just soak in paper towels until you see a tail then stick then 1/2" down in the media of your choice. And ditch those peat pots. They totally suck. Plastic party cups with a few holes in the bottom are better by far if that's all you got.

Somehow they survived your abuse and that's cred for them and not you. Read up a bit about how this all works before you kill them outright.

Good luck. They're gonna need it. lol

Yea I found out about them burrowing into the side of those pots the same day I transplanted them. But figured I would wait a few days before transplanting them into their final destination of a 5 gal fabric pot. It seems like the original transplant into the dry medium really helped to soak up the extra moisture in the original root riot pod.

LOL!!!! There is alway a critic. Those jiffys do suck for up potting. you're going to have to be carful with roots when you take seedling out of those pots. I made same mistake my first grow thinking what a great pot for seedlings. I thought I could just throw them in bigger pot. You need to take them out to up pot; On the other hand they will allow air and help wick away moisture making them a great place for your seedling to live. I ended up with a pound an a half in a 4X4 grow with 4 plants. BTW those seedlings look great. They don't look over watered. They have only been anything for a day or two. just don't over water. It would be hard to over water in those jiffy pots. I suggest you up pot those sooner rather than later because roots will want to bond with those pots making it difficult to separate them from containers. Welcome to forum... I don't think you will need any luck. With help like @OldMedUser you might think growing is hard and only smart people that have read books about growing cannabis can do it... Let me tell you!!! Easy as pie. Don't over think it. It's a weed!! Growing a photoperiod is so easy. No matter what you do wrong you have time. You don't have to flip until she is ready.

I'd give them at least 7-10 days in those pots and up pot to 1 1/2 or so. Then up pot again before flip to 5 gallon.

Ahhh I figured he was just trolling me abit... its all good. But thank you for the encouragement. I will definitely take your advice about moving up on pot sizes and timeline! Thanks for the advice greatly appreciated!
