Day 2. Forgot to mention she is an auto juicy blue. Im assuming that she is a cross between blueberry and juicy fruit. Second attempt with this strain, the first attempt failed due to lighting issues. New light and better results. ---

Day 3 a.m. (im going to start doing morning and night daily pictures) I built up from a 2x2x2 to a 2x2x4 with the top being easily detached to raise. ![20190507_094444](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/3/1/310bafa36a9eaf66e2777baf0e2d1180aef1effe.jpeg) ![20190507_111802](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/8/a/8ad306a88e2039e42ada7c588d8fa43d2420872f.jpeg) ![20190507_111758](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/4/3/43d0e26c7248addb2dfe4b16f959f613bd06c668.jpeg) ---

Day 3 P.m. No major changes. Still looking good Imo. She got a watering today. ![20190507_210356](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/2/e/2eb53857515720ad5a3c5c3e4688fc232d5449da.jpeg) ![20190507_210342](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/c/a/cad3062bb101aabac312b9062ae23cf19e48e8f4.jpeg) ---

@Bandwidth @sparker @bruinsfan33 I feel like she should be bigger by now? She did go straight from seed to soil so could that by why shes growing slow? ---

Looking good imo, the first 10-14 days always seems slow to me. Then once you get the first set of “true leaves” they just rocket as long as you are treating them right. ---

Day 5. Slowly but surely getting bigger. Ph level a bit low though. Not giving her any nutes either. My guess is around 5.3 (my ph meter is not digital) ![20190509_173808](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/d/1/d1456dbda828007ee7e9a7e2a3588fede184c0c8.jpeg) ![20190509_173747](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/d/b/db09fd83bd9089caabb9719d20ef2d22cb9dd13a.jpeg) ![20190509_173830](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/3/7/3797369b2ace8cf1753537ae9313da586da0311f.jpeg) ---

Not that I’m an expert(blew my first try, now in my 2nd) by any stretch, but I remember the first 2 weeks or so being slow, then growth just going nuts. Keep them alive and the environment good, and methinx you’ll be fine. ---

I personally like seed domes, myself. But I don’t think that would change how fast they grow. They’d just keep you from making a pot for a dead seed. ---

@MotorMage She is under a dome at all times except for when i take pictures and to water her. In about a week ill be taking that off. Just depends on how big shes gotten at that point. ---

Day 6. Nothing new yet. Shes definently responding well to the new soil. ![20190510_170144](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/5/f/5fb61cbe5300b2b4803066dcdf7ec276e2b4455d.jpeg) ![20190510_170116](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/c/6/c6203d8eea82e410ebc75bc5f16fe71acdd6bd27.jpeg) ![20190510_165959](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/9/d/9d53209a62d96b85715a3e8d6b8086c3c24bc526.jpeg) ---

Early day 7: still at a low ph… shes not big enough for nutes though. @MotorMage any thoughts on how to raise the ph for a seedling? ![20190511_071835(0)](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/f/f/ff38851c93b28bed7ae05754679a274173e3b784.jpeg) ---

Oooh… I’m the wrong one to ask, especially once they’re in soil. Mostly here for moral support! 🙂 I would say that they still look about about the right size for a week. If the PH is low, it’s not “too low”. [Next page](https://ilgmforum.com/t/my-2nd-time-at-it/30803.md?page=2)
