Finally decided to go on my own grow journey. Not too sure where to go as of now. Seems I've had a hard time all around. I was growing with someone in hydroponics. I thought I was ready and do the living soil. Broke soil on Feb 15th but seems they keep having troubles. Hopefully can receive some great advice here. Also to share the process with.

Those look great. Don't listen to those folks who said to start over, the smaller ones will catch up and you still have time for them to grow before you flip. It's all personel preference doing so. Some flip at 4-5-6-wks i like going nearly to 8wks as i just do a couple at a time in my tent and man it fills up a 3x3 quick. Strain is knowing how big they grow during these veg cycles and knowledge is gained in your first 3-4 grows. Your doing just fine. Keep us posted.✌️

Awesome! Ty. I'd like at least foot and half, 2 foot before flower. As they grow up to 3x size they are before. The one with pink tag is a rainbow glue, other 3 are green crack. At first they did amazing then over watered around 2nd 3rd node. Battling that, lights too close, and transplant shock. Also been using a foliage spray daily which found out is too much for the plants to absorb. Having a hard time with the happy frog soil, felt pot set up. Was thinking about trying to transplant bigger 2 this weekend.
 
U might want to start some LST on them soon. Is that something you've thought about. Your gonna need a trellis net eventually, too. Shits gonna get crazy, if ya feed and water correctly 🤣

I'm an outdoor grower, myself. But there's folks here that are awesome with indoor growing. Check out the grow diaries for indoor grows, and your choice of medium that your using, or grow styles ( living soil, hydro, ect. ). Tons of info.

BTW... Careful eating or drinking anything while reading thru the Trainwreck. 🤣🤣🤣

Yes. Recently put some garden staples in," to help" before I go straight to the plant ties. Kind of hard to see, but they're on the bigger 2. I will for sure look in the indoor grow forums, thank you. I have a net, and plan to use.

I don't see any issues. A little dark on the shade of green but the plant looks like it's loving it for this vital growth stage. No clawing or waxy sheen, slight fast growth chlorosis showing in the tops (a good thing) suggest you didn't push them too hard. Early on, that was what I was always wanting to know. How do they look, am I feeding them okay. If you're following a feeding system, stick with it because it's working nice.

Thanks for the advice, I really appreciate it! I tried not to push as I want to see and understand, the what and whys. Had a slight learning curves at start. I'm just using a compost tea, 1 a week. A "super soil" and ph'd RO water. Using the lift method but not too confident just yet. With fox farm being a part of this soil, the dry back stage is more of a moist back, but just now getting to understand it better. Again ty!

Very true, with peat and coco and peat blends, they behave way better with "moist-backs."

Yes! Pretty sure im going to switch over to the gaja green next time. As long as I can find it. If not, I'll have to revisit and find a great substitute for it.
 
Got to admit, all I've tested at this point is the pH of my before watering. Lol
Maybe I'll invest in a few meters, even one for my lights.
Getting annoyed with wondering all the time. Lol think I would of grabbed one by now.
