They look great!

Thanks. Autos are fun. I going to try some different stains next spring. Gonna try to do early summer harvest and a late one.

6 days since sprouting. They are looking good. I spied a gnat in the tent yesterday so when I get off work in the morning I’ll be applying Diatomaceous earth to the soil.

I can’t wait for her buds to fatten up some more. Lol. But it’s startingto get crystaly all over. You’ll get there. That biggest one has gone through hell and shes doing great.

Today is the scariest day of all for me. I transplanted my girls into their forever pots. They are only a week old and the root balls were already out to the edges of the solo cups!

As you can see in the pics, one of the plants has some curl-under to the leaves. I am not entirely sure why. The sister plant is the exact same strain and has been growing under the same conditions but her leaves are nice and flat and much wider.

They were started in FF Happy Frog and are now surrounded by FFOF. Praying they don’t get burnt up by the hot soil.

My girls have a definite size difference. Plant #2 is a dwarf. She also has some burnt tips on her first set of leaves. They were planted and sprouted at the same time.

nothen to be worried about with the size variations. diff phenoms and strains will grow quite differently even if they come from the same seedpack…

Plant A looks so good! I’ll be doing some LST this week on her. Plant B looks like she’s dying. Idk what the issue is unless it’s just bad genetics. I’ll probably see how she does this week and then start over if it’s no better.

i would run some water through the small one to flush it a bit and see what happens… hard to tell from the blurple light pic but it kinda looks like it might be getting cooked a bit in that soil…

I think you are right. My healthy plant has a few brown tips today too. I’m trying to not be too upset and figure out how to fix it. Will flushing tone down the soil?
