they look good for 2-3 weeks old. a little stretching, so you should get the light closer to the plants though, like 6 inches away.

also, what lighting schedule are you running? 18/6?

you are watering correctly. not too much water, just enough for them to drink. kudos.

This.


Also, chill out. It's a long process and patience is a must.

Bmeat... stop telling ppl to run 18/6 if they are already running 24/7.. Your still growing your first plant and its one of the worst plants Ive seen in my life... you dont have real marijuana growing experience so how the hell would you know if 18/6 is better than 24/7???

Not saying that Bmeat knows anything. <<<Disclaimer

However, 18/6 allows the plant to use the excess energy it has stored. A plant grows more efficiently from stored energy. That is why you will notice a big difference after a dark period.

Ive seen side by side comparison of 18/6 vs 24/7 and the 24/7 was a little shorter and had more grow tips/bud sites... so thats why I always use 24/7 and sometimes 20/4...

well here are mine at day 14 from germination. Everyone was all "wtf" at their size though haha. You'd think it'd be huge by now but it's relatively small. You look like you're doing good though. If you're going to stick with cfl's make sure you put plenty of lights on the sides of the plants to hit the undergrowth because cfls cant shine light through shit. Sorry for typos btw. (big ol white square is blocking up my shit.)

You look fine manny.
Just don't over water them.
Fat leaves, good sign of indica.
Just keep doing what you're doing and you'll look back a month from now and wonder how they got so big.

Pretty new as well but I've already switched from 18/6 to 24/0 and I think I'll stay with constant lights always. I was always fighting something when the lights were off temperature mainly. Now the conditions are constant and they grow just the same or better. GL.

Also I wouldn't let the humidity get to low, I had trouble with my seeds when the humidity dropped into the low 20's. I'd keep it around 50% if possible. Put some bowls of water around the plants.
