The Adventure Begins

This is technically my second grow ever but my first was years ago also with mephisto autos. This will hopefully start my journey of continuing to grow and learn and not stopping after. 4/19 - Seeds started germination 4/21 - 5 Seeds in soil towards end of the day still waiting on 1 Chemdoggin 4/22 - Morning: Last seed still not popped hoping it will in the next day or two if not may just run the 5 that popped instead of adding a 6th 4/23 - All plants have now poked through the soil and I have added a couple pictures of them. The 6th seed which is chemdogging still has not popped yet. Looking like we will just keep it with 5 plants but I will let the seed sit for a few more days to see if it pops. Will update more as the week continues.

5/2 This is day 9 since they have all popped through the soil. Just added pictures of the plants today as the lights came on. All plants seem to be doing OK. 2 of the 5 seems to be a little behind the other 3 as you can see in the picture of all. The bottom 2 plants seem to be smaller. I have since rotated the smaller 2 in the front to the back row to see if that makes any difference. I got my ph meter in and my tap that i have been giving has been 8.4 ph. I am now phing down the water to 6.5 Some of the plants appear to have lighter color veins and a spot on one of the leaves on 1 plant I'm not sure if this is a over water or what is causing. Could just be fine, time will tell.

5.13 Week 3 ends today, my downstairs is already starting to smell pretty nice. I can smell as soon as I hit the bottom few steps. - I do see some of the plants showing some pistils - Took a height measurement a few days ago and at that time everything was approx 6in - I have done a little LST on some plants - Not sure on how much water I'm giving. I saturate the soil and let it drain then put it back in and do not water until its dry so if I had to guess probably approx. 5 days between watering. 5/16 - Ladies seem to be getting a bit more thirsty, watered today 4 days after my last watering as the soil was quite dry and containers on the light side.

Plants are still growing decently and I can see the start of buds growing. I've been watering only tap adjusted to 6.5.

5.23 I gave 2 plants some bloom nutes and the other 3 stayed on tap only to test. the 2 plants that had the nutes tips claws hard and today 5/27 I just fed everything tap again. I'm starting to notice some issues and I don't know if this is from nitrogen deficiency on some plants or what but I'm starting to see some yellowing. From looking online I see potentially spots are fungi but i wouldn't consider these spots more so in between each vein in starting to yellow. This yellowing does not seem to be confined to the 2 plants i gave nutes too but it is showing on others as well. 1 plant has spots on multiple leaves that are severely yellowing.
