The 2 seeds that sprouted are looking healthy in their seedling phase.
Still in blue solo cups (transferred from red due to overwatering concerns).
Prepared two "Vivosun" 5-gallon grow bags with "Miracle Gro Garden Soil" to get the soil dry (was wet from rain).
Hi, good luck with your grow. I too am growing California snow and a week behind you so will be watching. Did I read your post right you are growing in Miracle grow. Will that affect the nutrients as I thought Miricle Grow had added nutrients.
Looking good but I don’t think they’re ready just yet (Aug 10 pics so a week ago now). Harvest a bit as a tester if you have to, but buds put on a lot of weight in the last few weeks. Keep an eye out for leaves shrivelling as a sign of bud rot inside but keep going. Get a magnifying app for your phone and check for the trichromes changing from clear to milky and even to amber. I’ve learned it’s always a bit longer than you think and outdoor always takes a bit longer. And keep them out of the rain and if the buds get wet give them a quick shake to dry them off a bit. No problem. 😎
@siz3thr33, I did they same thing last year with my Polar Express. Grow and learn I guess but I always find that the first plant of the year is hard to resist. 🤠

@siz3thr33,Hi, best of luck growing without nutrients!!!!!!!!! I wouldn't you will run into all kinds of problems. you need at least some cal/mag which is cheap. Regards soil you can use common old garden soil but that can be a bit clay like and bog the roots down due to high water retention. I use canna terra at £10 which pots up 5 grows in 10litre pots👍 Seedlings don't need nutrients to start with as the contain what they need for about ten days or so growth. It is then you would be starting with a low dose of what ever you choose to use.
@kitkat332986 hey! I wasn't planning on using nutrients at all to be honest. The soil that is currently in the solo cups is miracle gro potting mix - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GTDI9S2. I'm waiting for more leaves to transplant into my 5 gallon fabric bags but still need to figure out what soil I wanna use for that
Vinegar works fine but you want the pH about 5,5-6.5 for soil. Also try a bit of unsulphured blackstrap molasses dissolved in water every few days. Sugars and trace minerals work great. Good luck the rest of the way. 😎
