The stems are too dark, is this. A signal of overwatering? My light is 4000k full spectrum 150w from Samsung 301h quantunboard.

Do you have any drainage holes in any of those pots? That big black bin type pot doesn’t look like the roots are going to get much oxygen, so could be one reason why they’re stalling, can’t say much for the others as they look like relatively normal pots, how often are you watering? At this stage I don’t even water them I just create a puddle round the plant with a mist spray gun, maybe a couple times a week

The one in the pink pot looks okay to me. A little small but she should be fine, this was my gorilla cookies at day 14

Hey bro, than u for your time here. Tbh I like these pots cause my tent is too smal, and this the same pot I used last cycle and was “wow”. There are a lot of holes in the base. I watering everyday, when lights on.I was using a spray bottle but I started using since yesterday normal bottles. The pink one is the oldest one, she looks the same by days. im really confused. In your opinion, is there any possibility to they get bigger? Shoul I stop watering 2…3 days? The Humidity is too low atm. Arround 50%

Thank u again! Your plant is looking great!

Yeah you don’t need to water them every day at this stage brother, the roots need to stretch out and search for water a little more so if you’re using a small bottle I’d say water once a week, let them have a dry spell now and let them stretch out, give them another week before you get rid of em, I’m sure they’ll be fine, I been having some bad luck with seeds and seedlings lately, 3 failed germinations in a week the other week! So I know how stressful it can be but you got this bro

Na bro they’ll be fine, the ones you’ve watered leave 5-7 days. If the leaves start to droop or look sad then give her a water, they honestly do not need much st this stage, like 15-20 ml I give them maybe 30ml at most

Juat one more question, should I use a dome during this week? The RH is 50% inside the tent, im not sure if I should dimmer down the lights…

What’s the temps and RH in your grow space Growmie. Optimum seedling growth requires temps around 78-82 with and RH of 65-75%. Seedlings will absorb the moisture through their leaves while trying to put down roots. Are you covering these with a clear solo cup to act as a humidity dome. the medium looks really dry around a few of them. I would mist the inside of a solo cup and place it over the seedlings and water a nice ring around the outside of the dome and use about 6 ounces every 3 days seeing as they started in their forever home. I sprout and grow my seedlings in a solo cup for the first 12-14 days or so then transplant to 3 gallon fabric pots :love_you_gesture:

Hey buddy!! How u doing?

As a aoutoflower, I intend they do not needs transplating tho…but Im very confused cause I made the same past year and was awesome but now… :frowning:
Ok, its a home made dome.

That’s good, do you have a way to measure the DLI/PPDF? Look into the smart phone app called PHOTONE. They’re not stretching so I would say your lighting is ok but you’ll need to adjust the height and intensity down the road :love_you_gesture:
