I am a newbie here, its my first plant. many need to learn from you masters. My girl got sprout quickly(within 3 days), initially Ima just watering her with some mineral water, and for now I changed it for a ph balanced water 6.0, cause she grows so slowly. It will be helpful?

This girl looks healthy, she sits in a big reservoir of food( the soil) and only needs water. Your girl has to do now " rooting Job" so it looks like for you as if she does not grow, But she builds roots atm. You can help her in watering with aloejuice/ solved in water,,, or using any " bigroots" but she will grow without that stuff too.....Young seedlings loove high rh so you can give her an " open dome" that means a plasticbottle halved, and poking some holes in it. So the plant has higher RH. Think about inventing in a humidifier, because Weed grows much better under optimal conditions I let you a link t a VPD Chart , there you see wich RH you should reach in dependance of temperature and stage of grow http://www.just4growers.com/media/23631/vpd_2degree.gif

@microgrow Hi mate that young lady you have growing looks great!! you may need to raise that humidity a tad as under 50% during veg can cause issues of leaves cracking and drying out etc. A spray bottle of water with the misting setting can help raise humidity as can a damp towel inside the grow area. I would also start to feed a little Calmag (calcium magnesium supplement) from next week on and yeh she looks good nice plump leaves and I wish you a great harvest 👍💪

Hmmm, I seem to be following Mrs_Larimar all over and have similar answers😉 Growth issue does not necessarily indicate mineral water issue, unless maybe that water is way way out of the 6.0-7.0 cannabis range, but even then............ I would use distilled or purified drinking water. You could ph it to around 6.0-6.3, but I have never really needed that done. You may be at risk of over watering, using that plastic pot. I would switch to fabric pot as it culls the roots nicely, drains water through the sides as well as the bottom. You'll never over-water, if you use the two knuckle approach in testing your soil dryness. Should be cool, but not damp. If your light, temperatures, circulation are good, maybe this girl is just slow naturally. I would not feed at all for at least 30days, if you are using QUALITY soil. IMO, I would not worry about humidity so much, as I grow in a cabinet in dry Colorado air, and my levels are usually around 30-35%. The water saturation of your fabric pots would also help to humidify the air, until bigger plants start to transpire. But follow MRS_L for that dome stuff if it sounds good. Good Luck.
