Hi! This is my first grow. So far it has all been pretty awesome and exciting with 100% success rate on sprouting my seedlings. But here I am on day 21 and I have some questions.

1. Is it time to repot into their final homes…3 gallon fabric pots…
2. Why is some of my new growth coming in lighter green, like almost lime green?
3. I will move them from my tent under a led light to the room under 1000w hps, is it too early? Will they burn?  
Plants are…2 cherry pie, 2 blue dream, 2 Cali Dream, 2 skywalker OG and 1 mendo breath. None are autoflower, as I hope to take clones, and all were purchased from Ilgm except the Mendo…  
I truly appreciate any and all advice as I am pretty new to growing

Wait for your pictures to fully upload before hitting reply. Light green isnt much to worry about at the beginning unless it starts turning yellow. Even then your bottom leaves will eventually die off. I dont like anything touching the medium personally. It gives me anxiety after dealing with PM. Also welcome to the forum!

Plan for failure hope for success. Worst case scenario you have too many plants and is that really an issue? Lol

If you have any great white or clonex you can put some on the roots all around before transplanting and they will love it

Yuuuup. Plan B, C, D and so on.

You can go for if you want, the leaves are past the rim of the pots they’re in.

New growth will always be a little lighter as it has t had time to process chlorophyll. If it is green then turns yellow, that’s an issue.

Sorry I use LEDs. On the HLG train. But I would imagine so. Do you have a meter to adjust your height, etc? There are different apps. A lot of growers here use Photone app.

Your girls look really sturdy and happy!! Good luck and happy growing!!!

Thank you guys!!! Mind made up going for the repotting today. Every day of this experience is so exciting! I do have a cheap vivosun light meter. The new leaf color kinda worried me as I was concerned of maybe under feeding or overwatering….
