All but the lemon auto had popped in 36 hours but gave the lemon another few days. Lemon still hasn't popped so another was put in a wet paper towel just in case, I will still give the first seed a chance. Early transplant today. Learned quickly that I do not like using jiffy pellets. The jack auto had popped its taproot though the side and it is drying so since the others popped a tap out the bottom already I got them in their pots. They seem a little leggy so hopefully I fix that but I so plan to lst. The second Lemon auto seed did germinate on the 26th and 2 days later had emerged from the soil. It will be a week behind but just glad one did pop.

Almost 3 weeks from germination and early veg seems to be doing well. Now that I'm watering the whole substrate I had noticed spikes in my humidity up to 75% for a couple days so had to adjust my exhaust control temp but the space heater with controller coneters the cool air from my basement. Just started lst to hope for even bud sites later on. These girls are under 2-2000w Uoiuxc quantum board led lights, true watts are 240 a piece.

Continuing to tie down the main tops as they turn back up. It's been about 3 weeks from germination and the expert gorilla glue is just starting to show pre flowers.

Beginning of week 3 veg still using lst to keep canopy even and the girls seems to be responding well. All but the lemon auto (a week behind) are preflowering, the expert gorilla seems to be fast and is starting to stretch, Jack auto is showing the thickest veg hoping for a decent yield if I can keep them alive throughout the entire grow lol. I did snip 1 or 2 of the largest fan leaves off each plant that seemed to be hindering some new growth underneath. Took awhile for substrate to dry after last weeks flush with just calimag. Runoff came in at 5.8, some plants may be showing a deficiency but blue dream showed some nitrogen toxicity possibly from ph? Will full feed tonight.

Midway through this week and have feed transition nutes twice to the 3 plants. Expert gorilla seems to be showing deficiency so might have to pull back on the nitrogen and go to more bloom nutes. Took the exhaust fan off the controller and now have it running constantly on low to combat the humidity spikes. Lemon auto has just started a very few preflowers but is coming along.

Have been getting red stems on leaves and some brown spots on lower leaves. Have been increasing bloom nutrients while lowering the flora grow. Expert GG is getting some denser flowering and bluedream'matic is still stretching a bit. Jack and Lemon are taking some decent horizontal real estate but are flowering nicely. Lemon auto although a second seed about a week behind has seemed to almost catch up.

@BackcountryCannabis88, well i know it has a 2 N (nitrogen) so it could help with veg. I always stayed away from it cause the pests it can attract.

@SleeplessWalker, ya it is supposed to be another full growth supplement i believe and im using a feed schedule for gh i found on forums. Started with what my diary states per gallon nutes but then diluted to 1/4 to build up from there to early veg. I'm a complete newbie so its a full learning experience
