Those pics look better than yesterday. Must have been lighting.

This is what I was seeing that I no longer do on today's pics

ahh yeah that might have been the lighting, now that i think about it in the first pic i had the grow light on 1% white light and the second pic i took lights out.

i'll look at it again today just to make sure nothing is pale green/yellow like that.

to be honest i was a little concerned with the red in the veins.. isn't this a sign of too much K? and my concern after now adding all the potassium..

Yes keep an eye on K levels for sure, too much will burn veg babies fast.

That seedling looks healthy to me in that pic. I would not sweat the purple in the petiole. That's as likely or more likely to be genetics than K overdose IMO. Lets see how she grows out the next couple of days.

UV can also bring out red petioles on plants that would otherwise not display them. UVA especially from what I have seen. I got pics somewhere where a petiole under UVA was red everywhere except where the petiole was shaded by a leaf above it. Did not impact growth that I could tell.

midway through week two and the growth seems to be steady, same with the pH... steady eddy!!!

lights still the same power... about 200 μmol/s heavy blue/half white/little red

cruzing right into week three since seed and plants are growing. bumped up the white spectrum and now officially in veg stage!!



i know Moe told me not to worry about the shorter plant being lower in the netcup. and i tried, i really did but it was bugging me so i gave her a tug a few days ago.




both plants have little weird spots on their leaves and some of the veins are even mutated a little, nothing that has me worried at this point but just something i noticed. for now i'll call em birthmarks.

pH is 5.8
ppm's are about 260-270 (it seems to bounce back and forth every two days???) maybe just riding at 269 and tips the scale some days. IDK
water temp-71° air temp-78° leaf temp-74° rh-65% vpd 0.7

thinking about bumping the light power up and maybe doing a change out to bring up the EC a couple points. they're still pups yet so maybe i'll just stay the coarse for now. IDK

roots are looking great on both plants, better than they did my first round, these are tougher and pure white compared to my first attempt. speaking of the first attempt the buds are pretty much dry and ready for trimming... i'll smoke some with some friends this weekend and see what they say!! smells awesome though, glad i did the proxide wash!!!

another positive note is the weather stripping i put on is working very well, not a single drip comes out of the lids. been bone dry!



keep on keepin on.. life's a garden, dig it!
