persakatzen 24 hours after the seeds started to germinate, I waited 44 hours to plant them in about 9-liter pots with a little watering in the area where I buried the seeds.
Lamp height is 60 cm.
The light was set to start around 2:30 PM until 7:30 AM to take advantage of the off-peak energy hours.
Third day: after planting the "seedlings," I gave them a second little watering to encourage the seeds to break through the soil (it worked).
I installed a humidifier to raise the ambient humidity (60-65%) in the grow room.
The challenge was to keep the heat during the night phase, as I didn't want to turn on the bathroom heater (it was 15°C).
So I set up a heating mat normally used for reptiles; it helped raise the temperature by 2 degrees to 19°C. I installed it with a timer in the middle of the pots to distribute the heat well.
The air extractor (with activated carbon filter) was set to turn on for 15 minutes every hour (later I realized I didn't need to install the filter yet, but I was too lazy to take everything apart).
On the fourth day, I watered generously and then I watered with Rhizoponics Root Platinum Nutrients.

persakatzen First week vegetative:
The plants start to grow, without fertilizers because the soil already had enough for 2 weeks (Canna soil)
persakatzen Transplant week to 5-liter pots.
I used a granular fertilizer for biological (ADN Nutrients Total grow).
I mixed 5 grams into the soil.

persakatzen I adjusted the pH and brought it down to around 6.3. I'm watering them every 3 days.
On May 16, I did a spray with nettle tea that I made with leaves I collected outside, and two days later I did a second spray with potassium soap mixed with Neem oil as a preventive measure.
I noticed that some leaves are a bit weird, like twisted, I don't know why. Does anyone know?
Your plants look wonderful! If you have a fan blowing directly at them it will cause leaf twisting. You can point fans at wall and let it reflect. Or it is due to fluctuations in PH levels. Happy Growing and keep up the good work!
yeah, here you had this N toxicity already, plus as mentioned, could be wind damage added to some state of leaves.
You should slow down all feed and start watering them right in right amounts, with runoffs, without leaving dry pockets inside of pot and water when pots are dry and easy to lift, in your case some top lair can dry out, but plants stunt and wont drink, lifting is very important.
those meters sometimes brake from smallest drop, invest 5-8 £ into buying aqua drops and recheck your meter after calibration ....
i had like 30 of those yellows in my life , till i finally went to BlueLab ...
Both need regular calibrations, just one last long and works.
