Well I tried the finger test and it was a little bit moist enough to see a darker color in the soil so I’m gonna check it out today I recently got a uv/ or light to add to my light it was a mars hydro light so I stuck with them for the uv/ir light i’ve got it Scheduled the IR light 10 minutes on 10 minutes off 10 minutes on again before the grow light comes on and then at night I repeat the same cycle right before the light goes off and I turn the UV light on twice during the day for an hour each Is this a good schedule?

I’ve got a question the pots that I used this time I think are a lot of thinner than the ones from my 1st grow the Vivosun square fabric pots because as soon as I put water on them I seee it come out of the side somehow I don’t want to transplant them and stress them out I’m not sure what to do any suggestions

If the soil is hydrophobic between watering you would benefit from a wetting agent.
Keeps the water from puddling on the soil

What causes it to do that because I used the same soil last time I just not sure why this is happening now it’s ff ocean forest

Peat based soils do that overtime, the wetting agents it comes with wear off quickly.
Yucca extract is great, can find it right on Amazon.

Do u think it would be safe to switch pots and soil I do appreciate all the help u have given me @Autos-only through this grow and my first grow
It would be very difficult to change soils now. You’re welcome! It’s what this community is for.

Definitely looking better! 82-83 isn’t bad. I aim for 82.
Make sure you’re saturating the soil good and letting it dry in between.

i think it looks good.
i personally would trim off some of those lower leaves that are kinda buried in the bottom that aren’t getting any light. and that yellowing leaf at the bottom as well.
thats my suggestion, but i believe it looks phenomenal, the buds are growin, i bet thats exciting to see @justin4720
also have u considered maybe starting up a journal of ur own on here so we can help u at a more personal level with ur plants? i think u might have more people chime in and get more help as well if u had ur own personal post.
i kinda feel like @Brian384 kind of got pushed out of his own post here lol
