Started growing a new plant, jealousy feminized, she sprouted on 3-1. The leaves seem to be quite a bit bigger than I remember my previous plants having. Just wondering if this is an issue or if it’s a good thing. I have better lights than I did for the start of my last grow so I think it could make sense.
I’ll post a picture, lmk what you all think of a nearly 2 week old plant. Temps stay around 80-84 with humidity ranging from about 35-50%

Your plant looks fine. Comparing individual plants, even if of the same strain, is a bit like comparing cousins and expecting them to look the same.

Indicas usually have fat fingers and Sativas are longer and skinny. Not always but typical. I have had some nice phat fans on some little girls as well.

Large leaves are a sign of good health.
Keep it up.

It makes it hard to know because it’s more of a general rule instead of seeing near similar results. Unless you got a bunch of gross under your belt, I’d think there’s always stuff that comes up and makes you unsure.

It’s what I was thinking but their like 3x bigger than my first plants. Wasn’t sure if it was a symptom like stretching and I needed to change something. Went from a 65 watt light last time to a 150. Guess it seems to be really helping.

Thank you. Can’t wait to see what she looks like in a month!

The goal for each grow. To get better with all facets. For me the feeling of “I did that” when i smoke a bowl and even more so when kudos received from others i have shared with never goes away.

I think I messed up during the flowering stage last grow. The buds were quite fluffy and a lot drier than expected. I read how you should harvest when the start to dry up, not after the first day or two after watering, but the leaves turned brown and I tried watering to nurse them back but it just got worse.
May have messed up the lighting too where they got more than 12 hours or weren’t in total darkness at first. Plus I started getting a bug problem and I used DE. I used it before with no issues. Not really sure what I messed up on so badly.
The bud is okay, it gets me high it just burns really fast and some seems quite harsh. Ever since I’ve been eager to start a new grow and hopefully do much better since i kind went at it blind the first time.
Happy to know the plant is doing good already. Appreciate all the support. This is a great community.

@Putridsmell , BROTHER I’m in the same boat, And by no means am I a professional at growing cannabis, I have sertanly
Had a few problems myself, along the way, these folks here on the forum are in my opinion the best ! and as for myself at 60
45 years growing everything under the sun, I have read alot and thought I was doing fine, and I was, but then I found ILGM,
These guys showed me their growing techniques , I sure regret not knowing that a cannabis plant could be manipulated in so many different way , IT’S WAY BEYOND
COOL !!! ᕙ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)ᕗ

Forum introduced me to re-vegetating.
My summer was saved.
She was harvested and abandoned outdoors, for two months.
Her first day in the tent.
My newest harvested re-veg candidate.
Took flowering clones too.
Flowering clone (x2)
Same plant, 6-months later, a new clone, taken again.
Have fun growing, I do.

@DEEPDIVERDAVE : WOW , just simply AWESOME brother!!!
now THAT’S what I would give anything to grow a plant like you are doing, I have tried, after reading exstenceivly ! but somehow my best efforts went
Horribly down hill , I’m NOT giving up , I’m pationatly, slowly going forward although, I will never give up trying!!! Mine was planted Feb 25 of this year, are they looking on track to you?
Burnt Toast #4 , what would u suggest, still in seedling stage as u are aware of ,I never use any nutrients until early vegging cycle begins weeks from now , just Fox Farms soil ,
Flora Trio nutrients, it’s served me very well in all of my past experiences , BUT THIS YEAR !!!
I want to go wild with GIANT Buds , first time experiencing the
Mainlining, Manifold , LST , techniques ,
@DEEPDIVERDAVE , sorry, I guess I’m still asleep, I forgot to send pic of today, after I woke the girls up, light cycle 18/6 .
What kind of light are you using? That’s a massive tent though. Wish I had something that big. My grow space is probably around half of that.
Unless you got another area for when those get bigger, I think you are growing too many.
I think I had about the same amount in about the same area and it was a nightmare. They start to fight each other for the light. I tried adding in more supplemental lighting but it’s just not enough.
There’s a professor who has some videos about cannabis which I found really interesting. His name is dr Bruce bugbee if you want to look him up on YouTube. He was talking about how much light a cannabis plant can get and as long as you adjust the nutrient and water schedule they can handle nearly any intensity.
I’m not an expert but it looks similar to my first grow. Unless you have a 1000+ watt light in there. I had a 150, 100, 65 and 3 40 or 45 watt lights and it’s wasn’t enough.

Very good points mentioned above. One that i will add… try to keep you RH (relative humidity) no lower than 50% while in veg. If my humidity drop below 50 in my veg room, my girls tend to get cranky…
