I water every 3 days just to make sure the soil is dried out to prevent overwatering. They are in FFOF @AfgVet

Maybe they’re just working on root growth. They’ll do that, then they’ll sprout up

How much water are you giving them each time?

I am new too but when my plants were that size they were getting 120mls every 3 days. They were soil.

Holy crap I guess I’m really underfeeding the girls ? That can probably explain the slow growth and the yellowing to the leaves? @Fergus

Yeah, I would say you need to give them more ph-ed water each time. They’re big enough. Personally I don’t get wrapped up in measuring to the ml. And over watering comes into play with watering too often, not too much (at the stage you are at) I would be giving them about a half of solo cup of water to start. Water around the circumference of the leaf growth. Then let the soil dry before watering again

Ok thanks for clearing that up I thought if I would to much at once that would cause it to be over watered. I try my best to let the soil sit 3-4 days after water before I water again , to make sure the soil is complete dry . I’ll start pumping up the Amish t of water I give them when I do @AfgVet

Feel the weight of the pot when it’s dry. Get a good feel for it. Then water. You can then judge the dryness of the soil by him much the pot wighs

I’m not that experienced with LST, but this guy is. Hey @Bulldognuts can you share some advice on LST?

I went ahead and LST them . I think they are young to be trained but it’s ok . I don’t think I’ll be fimming or topping my autos only LST.

I usually wait until they get a little taller. But really there’s no wrong way to LST generally speaking. Trial and error is the best teacher.

You’re learning your way and that’s the best. I learned also when I did it to my small blackberry auto. Live and learn!!

If you haven’t used any yet, try mixing in a little bit of molasses with your next watering. It might help wake up the microbes in your soil. About a teaspoon of unsulfured backstrap molasses per quart of water.
