First time grower; outdoor grow… one plant each of GSC, Blueberry, Mataro Blue, Humboldt Dream and Pineapple Upside Down Cake.
GSC - genetics unknown
Blueberry - 00 Seeds
Mataro Blue - Kannabia Seeds
Humboldt Dream - Humboldt Seed Company
Pineapple Upside Down Cake - Humboldt Seed Company
Seeds started, you can see I already made a beginners mistake by over watering.
Also, Agrobrite T5 high output light I ordered was a week and a half late due to Covid-19 so there is a little stretch to the seedlings.
This is what the over watered plant looked like…
You can see I moved the plant to a bigger pot with dry soil to help dry out the wet soil. Not sure that was a good idea but it helped.
Got the light set up and this made a huge difference. The plants responded almost immediately and showed improvement.
Here are the plants as of 4/24

Those Humboldt Seeds should grow good since they have good genetics. Good luck…

Nice. I hope you have a lot of room. Some of those should hit 8’.

Question - should I plan to re-pot before I move to 30 gallon pots? Currently in 2.7 liter or just under 3/4 of a gallon container. May 23 or May 30 at the latest to move into big pots. Thanks Craig

I’m actually curious about this myself. I currently have the in solo cups.
Plant update… next week I think I will top at the 6th node.
Time to mix up the soil for the 30 gallon pots.
