Thanks.I'll compare to 100w hlg when my light comes on. I'm running 22k @ 18 now

That's just about where I'm at right now

I think the roots are a bit slower because of the way you were watering before. So long as you keep getting at least a little runoff, the roots should catch up soon. This is partly based on my own experience doing pretty close to the same thing lol.

That's good to know

I'll repot before 1 water next. I've read that it's best to transplant when the soil is dry. My lights are 18 in. away now

I think that’s a great idea. Just curious as to why you want to keep moving the lights closer and closer. A little bit of stretch is not a bad thing.

I was lowering them to the recommended height for the lights to be off the plants. I've been taking it slow so I wouldn't burn the plants.

Understanding. Smart. I like stretch so I don’t listen to the recommendation haha. Stretch = yield, height permitted.

I transplanted today. Everything went fine. I added mykos where the root ball is sitting and around it some. I also watered with fertilizer again. The soil was almost completely dry prior to transplant

Looking good. Sounds like they are starting to really drink!

Yes they are. I'm hoping they really take off now

To my eye they will.

New photos. As far as I can tell they are both doing well.

 

[Milson]

They look very happy. Great color.

I'm thinking about topping the bigger plant for the second time tomorrow. Can I top the other branches coming out from the sides or does that only work on the main stalk

Once you're talking about topping twice, you're into mainline territory. This is my favorite place for info on topping and other training.

I can't get a great picture but the leaf has 10 points. I've read that it's a sign of a healthy and fast growing plant that's what getting a lot of light

Yeah man, that plant is loving life.

I got some more fertilizer today. Next feeding is Monday. I've been given them half the recommended dosage on their feeding chart. You guys think it's smart to start giving more
