Hey @Hellraiser wat do you think this looks like to you I’m growing these in coco haven’t given any nutes since first feeding about a week and a half ago just phed water since and all 6 seedlings are looking this way
And also do you think I should transplant just yet? Some have mire roots than others this is the plant with the least amount of roots
Not a coco grower but I think you need to feed more often in coco and start early with the calmag as well.

Ok cool so next watering will give suggested amount from chart but do you think I should transplant these babies to 3 gallon or maybe even 1 gallon felt pots?
Nice photos.

What would i know.
Look at me 1 grow under my belt and giving opinions.

Hey @Hellraiser I have been reading your grow journal for a while and it’s been helping me prep for my first grow. Yesterday I planted to LSD seeds in solo cups. These were the lights I used [Shengsite 75w grow light](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07XCJ3YBW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) just for germination. My dad doesn’t really know anything about growing so I would usually be over there tending to the seeds. I planted them about 10pm EST last night. (They were pre germinated 24-72 hrs prior with water and paper towel method.) He sent me a photo this morning of both seedlings and it seems that the taproot for 1 of them is exposed to the light. My dad doesn’t get back from work until 12 a.m tomorrow. Will it die and be too late by then? This light is a placeholder for my spiderfarmer but I don’t know if the light is strong enough to kill it.

Hard to tell from the pics but if the tap root grew up into the open air and light, then best to cover it with some soil so it doesn’t dry out, just move some of the soil around it, over the exposed root, or gently push the root under the soil.

Ok thanks. I don’t live with him so I can’t get into the apartment until he comes home from work at 10p.m. So by then it should be around a day since I planted it. Will it still survive by then?

No telling, it may or may not. If it’s tip is exposed then not good, if it’s another part of the root, could be ok til then.

@Blue89 Do those cups have drainage holes in the bottom? You need good drainage, especially in coco. Assuming you have good drainage, I would water that coco at least every other day with about a 1/2 strength nute solution. Add cal/mag to the water at full recommended strength. PH adjust your solution to 5.8 or 5.9. Drainage is crucial as you want significant runoff out of the bottom as you water.

Yea there’s tons of holes in both cups and I was thinking about watering them tomorrow and giving them more nutes cuz I gave them some on first feeding
If i was you i’d use 1 gal plastic. Use fabric for your final 5-7 gal pot

Can anyone tell me how long a typical grow takes them from sprout to harvest? My current schedule has me taking 120 days and that’s if I don’t wait for my younger plants to hit 7 weeks from sprout and I feel like that’s longer than I’ve read.
Beautiful! @Blue89
