I think also a reason that these are smaller is partially due to a lack of early root development. Would suggest using a nutrient solution aimed at promoting root growth, and as others have said before, graduate the seedlings from smaller containers to larger once they've grown some. By filling the top of your containers with coco coir, the first couple of weeks of growth of the seedlings could be stunted as they can't immediately grow roots to the bottom of such a large container to access the rich soil there. Autoflowers are going to be less forgiving, because they're not going to fix themselves after going into flower. Good luck with the rest of your grow 😊

, so for watering, it was past on to me by
@stick
. With seedlings and early vegging you want to water about 1/10th the bucket size. And later, in larger containers, with more thirsty plants you may go up to 15-20% of the container size. This only works if plants are in proper containers. Seedlings only need a very small amount if water and should be in small medium like rockwool or other types of grow plugs, then moved to bigger container (like solo cup) when they outgrow that one. It's like you don't put a baby in a regular car seat, they need a baby seat (grow plug in seedling tray), then when bigger need a toddler seat (solo cup), then when they outgrow that they get a regular car seat (which in this example is their final pot like 3-5 gallon).

, alright, im doing about the same...i'm gonna start upping the amount I think. I've noticed that each time I water them, they really start to perk up.

My lsd 25 is looking very similar to yours, age and sizewise. I'm hoping they'll have a spurt as well. How's your watering schedule look like?

lowered my light from 18inch to 12inch today. was just looking at the specs on my light and saw the par to height ratio and decided to do some research. turns out from 18inch with my light they werent getting nearly enough usable light. at 12inch theyre getting around 500 par now, so hopefully that will help them grow better. these ladies are tiny for their age. good learning experience!

Hey thanks for answering my question guys. I guess i wont be watering them for at least 3 days. Ill check the soil color again after 3 days.

@BeefWellingtons
, i actually have 1 in a solo cup right now which sprouted yesterday. Decided to try this method as per your instruction last week, just to see the difference with both ways of growing. Regarding the 2 cups of water, tomorrow ill check the soils moisture and will only water as needed. 1 thing though, i see in a lot of peoples diary that they water between 0.13 to 0.26gal per plant per day...even in the early weeks. So this is not accurate? Ive been basing my watering on that and some youtube vids i watched.
