Smooth sailing with no issues with the germination, watering lightly making sure not to drown the seedlings.
LED is rather strong on dimmer (25%) hence placing the light roughly 2 feet (60cm) away from the top of the plants.
Make sure there is enough water in the trays so the roots have moist medium to reach for.

Slow and steady growth, both have stopped stretching as seedlings and are starting to create nodes, slight crinkle on the one leaf that i put down to too much air ciruclation (fan too strong) for this stage of growth.
watering at 6.2-6.5 when the first few inches of top soil is dry
light kept at 25% roughly 60cm away from the canopy

Starting to size up nicely no further issues, raised the lights by about 5-10cm and turn up the intesity.
Started showing signs of flowering so pre-emptively gave them a feeding of worm casting, microryzae and 1/10 of the reccomended dosage of Fish blood and bone for any nitrogen needs going into flowering.
I plan on feeding again in another 2-3 weeks using more bloom focused nutrients, based on how much the plants stretch during flower.
watering at 6.2-6.5 when the first few inches of top soil is dry
light kept at 40% roughly 60cm away from the canopy

no further issues raised light intensity to 50%
I plan on feeding again in another 1-2 weeks using more bloom focused nutrients, based on how much the plants stretch during flower.

no issues so far raised light intensity to 75% and raised the light so they have some time to adjust to intensity and flower into the light.
plan on feeding again next week this time using bat guano and worm castings as the last feed they'll need till harvest watering with an additional organic pk booster mixed with water that measures at 6.2-6.5 pH
light kept at 75% roughly 70-75cm away from the canopy

-If using this as a guide i would reccomend not giving any nutrients in the first 5 weeks of growth but lesson learned as i fear i may have over done it with flowering nutrients too early into the flowering phase
(organic nutrients usually need pre-emptive feeding as it takes time to break down the organic compounds for the roots to manage it all)
-No more feeding until harvest other than a seaweed extract water additive and

G14 has handled the flowering phase alot better than the tangie but might be down to the indica/sativa genetics.

-watering at 6.2-6.8 pH when the first inch or two of medium is dry
-light kept at 70% roughly 55-65cm away from the canopy
Using a tea (compost) of epsom salt, bat guano and molasses added to the water alongside seaweed extract every 10-14 days until close to harvest

Trichomes are 80% milky with some turning amber (under 5%)

watering without any additives to the water until harvest as the plants should start fading.
minor leaf issues which havent hindered anything so far.
