First Grow

TangerineDre4m It's been about 10 days since germination and the girls now look like they are honing in on week 1 veg. One of the girls has some stunted leaf growth and is lagging behind a bit. She's a keeper all the same! Looking forward to seeing where she ends up. So far, only water has been added to the pots. Currently still running the lights 24/7 until my heater arrives (probably next week). Planning to switch to 18/6 after that. Growth is really starting to take off now, which is lovely to see 🙏 I made this update a bit earlier because what I'm worried about is the light green markings on the leaves. I have seen no sign of insects, so not sure what it is. So far it doesn't seem to impact growth. Not sure if the stunted growth on one plant is at all related to the spots. My internet searches don't really give me a good answer. Does anyone know what this could be?

TangerineDre4m The plants are about 16 days old now. They are all growing really well, super happy with how they are looking. Even the runt is starting to grow out of it a little. I probably won't be training her at all, looking forward to seeing where she ends up 🙌. I have started LST on the biggest of the bunch. I think I will wait with the other two until tomorrow or the day after. They are just a tad too squat to confidently bend right now. In general I find that all the plants are pretty squat with tight nodes. Could be an indication of some big girls. Watering has been around 300ml every 48 to 60 hours, depending on how quick the dryback is. Update: Got stakes instead of wire for LST. They seemed a lot easier and safer to work with than the wire I had. Got excited and did the LST.

TangerineDre4m We are at the end of week 3 veg at day 21. One of the girls started showing pistils 2 days ago. Pre-flower is close. 🙌 The girls are responding well to LST it seems, they are getting quite bushy. Also, the stretch has noticably started which is exiciting to see! Since my soil mix was missing a source of Mg, I added a snuff of epsom salt into the last watering. Will probably keep doing this every 3rd watering or so.
