Give them another day or 3.

I will check back then. Thanks for help RMCG

You definately want a few more days and longer if you are putting them in the under current under HID lights rather than t5's.

Yea when I place them in my uc system how high should the light be above to start off? And what is the closest it could be?

Hey Stu - looking great! I suggest letting them root even further through the cube. Once the bottom of that cube is pretty white, toss them in...trust me on this one, the more roots the better before transplant...

Alright Just stoked to see roots. As we speak I'm filling up the UC with fresh RO. Could always let that spin around for a day or two long till these roots are going nuts. thanks for the tip.

Bubba arrived today only thing that I wish my buddy did different was that he didn't have it in a 4" net pot. Oh well a 4th is better than no 4th at all. Roots are pretty nice has had them in the buckets for 2 weeks at a PPM of 700. Check the pics

Temps are getting to hot during the day. Garage is uninsulated and just bakes. As if more things couldn't go wrong and I had more room to spare. I was forced to cram a portable AC unit in there. My new problem is when the AC runs the tent is in so air tight that it is sucking the tent in.

Sooo with the issue in hand I might be building my 8'x12'x8 build out sooner than expect. Tents are fun but if you have the option to do a build out. DO IT.

What exactly do you mean by "transition looking leaves" Like the light stripes down the middle of the leaves?
