11.28.20 - Bags were removed on all plants once they sprouted - currently (11.28.20 AM) only the second seed of Blue Dream that is germinating is under a bag... FYI - I DO live in a dessert... 11.26.20 - Trainwreck seems to be doing really really well and took the time to switch Jack and Great White Shark so that the two plants doing well - Jack and Trainwreck are under the same light at about 50% and the two "weaker" plants (Great White Shark and the germinating Blue Dream) are under a dimmed down light 30-40% 11.25.20 - Started with 4 seeds 1 for each strain - Blue Dream did not sprout so Seed #2 was planted on 11.25.20 - Using mostly spray bottled with pHed very diluted nutrients (since they are planted in Coco Coir/perlite) and water - Switched to just distilled water for Shark/Blue Dream

Hard to tell what’s going on with the blurple pics, but I would remove those bags and leave them off, your soil looks way to wet but hard to tell under the blurple light. Did you poke drainage holes in those cups? With the bags over them your holes are the only escape for mosture, and if you flooded those cups then bag them there is way to much moisture with nowhere for it to go and your seedling certainly cant drink it all up. More info would and pics under normal light and I could maybe help ya more. Cheers💨

Moving the Jack Herer and Trainwreck from germinating/sprouting to Veg wk 1 - They appear to be doing well - giving 60-80mL of water 2x a day - cups are draining well

50+ work week and holiday shopping/shipping etc means not to many good pics - just focused on the water and nutes Moved jack, trainwreck, and shark (at the end of the week) into 1 gal pots - using the great white shark powder on the transplants - started very gentle LST but ended up high stress when I ended up breaking off a leaf stem on Jack Herer :( Had a calibration problem with the pH meter and i think i was running too high this week by .77 ish - this seems to have turn lower leaves a little green in Jack and Shark

FINALLY got a Blue Dream to pop - lucky #3 and it's shaping up to be a strong looking seedling whew... Started to LST using floral tie formed into "u" shaped stakes to pin the lower leaves down. FIMed Jack (3 stems produced) and Trainwreck (4 stems produced) I seem to have fixed the pH problem from last week and the green is starting to come back into the lower leaves that had yellowed :)

12.24.20 - Transplanted from teenager pots to their "adult" pots - root balls looked solid for Jack Herer and Trainwreck. Blue Dream is looking good as a sprout - will probably transplant into teenager pot next week. Learned that Great White Shark is also called Peacemaker and the hippie in me has started calling it that instead of GW Shark, anyways it's doing good - will transplant into adult pot next week once we have more Coco prepped and buffered :)

1.1.21 - Keeping up with the schedule - nutes/water then molasses/water - repeating as needed seems to be every other day since moving them to their big pots - mild some mild defoliation just to make sure the growth sites were getting enough light - maintaining the LST to set up for the ScrOG - plants are staying low and bushy

You might wanna tie that GWS down a bit more while you still. I wish I had. Check out how bushy that thing can get: growdiaries.com/diaries/82243-bruce-banner-lemon-cake-chemdawg-big-yield-auto-grow-journal-by-randerson17/week/462952 Just passin' along some info. Wish I'd spread out my canopy a bit more for better LED light penetration. Good luck w/ the grow. Lookin' forward to seeing how it goes (:

@MagicPlants17, thanks for the advice - we plan to LST and eventually use the ScroG method :)
