A little more growth and all 3 have the leaves standing up now.
#1 seemed to be like it would shoot off like a rocket, but appears to have stalled maybe. Stem is a little darker, probably nothing to sweat.

#2 is maintaining, no change

#3 really looking nice now. Looked like the runt at first, but now all are pretty even.

#4 .... nothing yet.

Sorry, number 3 is a little blurry. Long day at work and just trying to relax now

Well, scratched around the surface in pot 4 again. Found her, confirmed dud. Cleaned up the tent and rotated the girls around. #1 is now front center, #2 back left, #3 back right. Also, after giving their morning light spray, I was was able to gently get off the last remnant of her seed. Heltmet head officially gone!

Great. If my seeds catch wind of this, the whining will never end. "2Water soaks his seeds in coconut water! We're stuck with this fucking hard water that can substitute as cal/mag! Wah!"

I will turn this tent around if I get any crap.

šŸ¤£ I love this, lol! Our water is naturally hard here too. I use a glacier fresh rv filter (I'm not sure how much else it actually filters other than odors and chlorine.

Get yourself some sticky yellow aphid traps and place a few around the plants. They'll catch most anything flying (like fungus gnats) around your plants and let you know if you have a bigger problem coming.

Also, do you have anything on hand in the case of pest infestation? I would order at least some Captain Jacks Deadbug, just to have it. If you want to know what it feels like to be helpless... Spot some bugs on your plants with no means to immediately deal with them. :)

I am using trifecta for pest management, applied to pot when I first planted, and last night. It says every 5 days to reapply. I definitely don't want bugs!

Honestly, that trifecta spray is pricey too, I bought the 32oz spray bottle and then the small concentrate bottle. I've seen the damage pest can do and tried to plan ahead. Especially since I am using diluted coconut water during seedling stage, and then going to do a weekly water with raw honey as well. (There is alot of cinnamon in the pots as well to keep ants awayšŸ˜‰)

Hey guys, how much stretch is too much stretch? Might seem like a dumb question, but they seem to be growing taller pretty quickly. My wife is surprised every day, lol! Anyways, it is hard to compare by pictures in other posts, how much it too much?
 
#77
I know, I am a little obsessive with taking pictures, lol! I adjusted the light height, hitting 280ish on all 3. Used a lighter for height reference. Not bad for going from soaking 7 days ago, and popping soil on Wednesday?

#1 - leaves are the biggest, but she was the first to sprout and the tallest atm.

#2 - nicest leaves so far
20221210 073422


#3- middle of the pack

Stretch happens mostly in pre flower to flower. Don't worry about stretch at this stage. Growth is your main goal here. Of both root AND branch systems. Once your plants have reached 5 -6 node growth you can decide whether you want to train your plants for higher yield or just let her go and get what you get.
