Let me tell you a story. It's real short! I felt like Abrham one day because I thought 1 of my girls was a hermie and I was like 2 seconds from chopin her down but despite what even the wisest of men said (chief) I did not! Now I have 4 fully female! BEAUTIFUL girls! I love em! Them and the other 2 girls in my house! I love all 6 of them bitches!

Lookin good. Are you using any fertilizer? Some of your leaves look light green in spots...it might be the photo, I can't tell. Do you have a soil PH tester? Can you move the lights closer? Maybe like 1-3 inches from the leaves. Also - your soil is looking much better. I noticed at the beginning of the post your plants were saturated with water. Remember plants drink by osmosis, so the roots have to CHASE the water. If you actually let the soil dry out a bit, the roots will grow faster searching deep for that water. Let them dry out, then SOAK them about 3-5 day cycle.

I look forward to more pics...

Thanks for the input and yes I am using 2-8-4 fertilizer and the lights are all about 2-3 inches from the plants any closer and they will burn up. I have already killed one due to that so now I'm down to 10 plants

Lookin good man! Just remember to be slow with the nutes. Don't wanna burn em up.

They are getting nutes every other watering is that good or should I do it every watering. Keep in mind they are getting 12 ounces of nutrient water and their new feeding schedule is every 5 days

That should be good but if the tips start to turn yellow then you should back off some. They need to be a rich (not dark) green.

Thanks for the advice I have seen some leaves turning yellow so I will back off and give them just water this next feeding.

Maybe you shouldn't feed any more until you transplant. Just give em some plain water and a little bit of nitrogen until they gather their strength back.

Your dirt sure does look better :)

I planned on it but I don't have just nitrogen so when I give it to them it's gonna come in a combo of 2-8-4 but they are only gonna get that like 2 more times between now and when I switch them to 12/12
