GCS - Pineapple Auto (first solo grow)

First ever solo grow, used to work at a grow almost 10 years ago doing menial labor tasks without appreciating the science of growing bud. Wanted to give it a try with all this COVID time, and it being legal where I live I figured, "why not?" Started with 2 plants in the very same conditions, planted directly in soil medium. Soil is Fox Farms (Frog Variant) with added amendments in the bottom 1/3rd of the 5 gallon containers. Worth noting the containers aren't technically a full 5 gallon volume, as they are shorter than a 5 gallon bucket. I assume this means they are actually 3 gallon and were falsely advertised, either way, the planters seem to be big enough. These little girls popped right out of the soil with no complications in about 5-6 days and are ready to grow.
