Indoor virgin, wish me luck

Im still going back and forth between florescent and the new led. One will be hanging tonight. Im thinking about turning right before sunset and off around midnight

There are several ideas about when to transplant. One is that there should be several sets of leaves. I like the root ball to be big enough to make sure the soil won't fall apart during the transplant.

either light does not have to be close, basically start out with lights high!., 3-4 ft for a day or two

Cool, thanks

Cool, thanks

When I transplant, should I bury the stem deeper than it grew in the peat pot?

Every beautiful bud picture starts here

It looks like a little palm tree

Does anyone use lst clips?

 

[electroguy]

I wonder what my plants are doing......

 

[electroguy]

It looks like some roots are popping up in my peat pods. Shit, did I plant to shallow? I put some peat on top. Hopefully they will re orient themselves.

Here comes her friends. I removed the master kush from its dome this morning. One of my seeds from last year's first grow super lemon haze popped yesterday.

And today a non femenized blue dream from premium seed market. 2 days in the peat pod dome. Top left

It still has it's little helmet on

 

[electroguy]

It looks like one of my seeds lost its baby leaves on it's way up. Is it toast?

this technology is super inefficient, only better than incandescent. stick with the led for seedling

Yes but that's sort of the point for seedlings, they are delicate, some more than others depending on genetics, as you know I'm sure. I do only fluorescent for a week at least, but my current fluorescent is stronger than a T5, but not as intense as the led I don't think. My led doesn't dim, it's just a small one for starting, I'm sure the ones that dim way down are perfectly fine for seedlings as long as they aren't too close.

Sometimes they are just duds with weird mutations. I've had them refuse to develop a root, only have one cotyledon, getm then die for no apparent reason... it's a always a gamble with seeds.

Yes you can plant them right up to their lower leaves. I start half way with soil in a solo cup then add soil as it stretches out.

those 85watt CFLs were dope and this is like 2016 .

sure grew my seedlings and lil veggers just fine - im sure if we look for "innefficency" we can find it in almost any grow

end results > bias and preconception - if you can get it done doing so - who cares :)
