I put the beans on the pot Saturday and whala tonight the first signs of life. Forgive my excitement but I’m sure you had the same uphoria on your first grow.
Congratulations on your first baby sprout! It is exciting and I still get excited when I see the first sign of life.
Most people change the lighting to 18/6 after they all sprout, but some like to leave it 24/7 for a week or two.
Thanks I’ll keep an eye on them. Btw I read your posts about men and gadgets and got a big kick out of it. You may have started out a little sexist because you were stereotyping all men as gadget addicts. Your quite the conversationalists. Also the post about grammar, I do need to read some posts more the once to decipher the code, good thing I studied cryptography. Look forward to your future help with my inexperience. Btw I read about everyone that replies to my post
I just harvested my second grow and I still get giddy and excited by each new stage 
What started out as hubby’s project has become my hobby/obsession 
Welcome to the greatest forum with the friendliest most helpful folks 
I have to agree with GreeThunder. The bigger the plants get. The more you will get sucked into this hobby. 
@Zepman55 i would them get a little bigger before you switch to 18-6 schedule
I will normally leave them on a 24-7 for the first week or two tops and Then switch
And i switch to 12-12 at first signs of flowering with autos week three or four usually from seed
Auto veg fir a short time fyi
I will normally start them in cups and transplant after-a week or two again depending on growth
Thanks for the info @Countryboyjvd1971 when I do transplant I was thing of scrogging at least two but not topping and I just read you journal on the Gold leaf scrogging you did and read you topped the plant as well my question is how long after transplanting do I wait to top? Next will the yeild be better if I just Scog the same or lower if I don’t top? I am a first time grower and have WW autos.
Ok autos need to be topped at the right time I normally don’t suggest topping of autos to a new grower
A scrog screen works best with one plant in my opinion
Ive never scrog a auto so two or more may be ok since they grow fast
Ok so far ILGM seeds are batting 800 or 4 out of 5.
Kind of hard to tell but there are four sprouts. I think we are going to bat 1000
Woohoo hello Little girls
Hahaha @Zepman55 you may be jumping the gun just a little bit but i love the enthusiasm lol
