Are you doming them?

Agreed with @ChittyChittyBangin. Get a clear cup, spritz a couple times with distilled or RO water and put it over them.

I was gonna ask this myself but I don’t see any signs of humidity being a problem. Probably should have asked…

Maybe one plant doesn’t care about the environment while the other is struggling?

Ive grown both indoors doming and not doming. I have a heck of alot better growth while doming.

Check your temperature, it should be 78 F - 80 F.

I just saw that these are autos. Id like to watch a side by side grow on these.

@ChittyChittyBangin Mee too! With the limited info I have I’d guess they are within environmental parameters, but the smaller one is gonna be more light sensitive.

Relative humidity on average 65% and I have been talking them outside during daylight hours

65% is acceptable. I wouldn’t worry about it. Iv had some funny acting seeds from ILGM but none have disappointed!

I have a good ventilation system so I don’t see that as a problem plus I’ve been taking them outside during daylight hours

My only question is why are you bringing them outside? You are opening Yourself to pest and potential problems. Not to mention a stable environment.

Do you plan to grow outdoors?

Optimally your seedling should be getting 24 hours of light. Taking it outside during the day doesnt hurt, but really doesnt help either. Humidity needs to be around 80%. If youre going to have them outside id at least place a misted dome over them. Seedlings get their water the first few weeks through their leaves. Temps for seedlings need to be between 78°F and 80°F. If you have a germination mat for indoors, that would help as well. These pics were taken a month apart.

Temps need to be around 78-85 for seedling. Cold temps will stall the growth :love_you_gesture:

Doming sounds like a good idea, I’ll give that a shot. Started doming today. I’ll let you know how it goes. Thanks


This one is 9 weeks in 8” pot LSD AUTO, when should it start to bloom?

@Easydoesit72 noone can really tell you that answer. Autos have a mind of their own. They flower on their time not ours :rofl::rofl::rofl:
