hell yes!!!

:weed:
OK. so i transplanted yesterday about noon. and at first my 4 week old babies looked sad. but aafter bout 30 hours. they look like they are happy again. i was a little scared cuz this is my first grow. but know i notice that all 4 are already getting more foliage. its getter thicker. there only 4 weeks old. but hey. im excited. wish me luck. peace.
 
i just feel like they should be alot bigger then what they are for the age. they are 3 weeks old. they are about two inces tall with two big singles then two triples. um thinking that its root bound from i started them in solo cups. for about three weeks. so i think it stunted growth they looke alot more healthier now. maybe since more rooom will grow faster. pics comin now. thx for replies

just something i learned from tek mike, i was doing this and slowing my growth aswell.

i was using slightly less than room temp water(say 55) and my grow area is warm(say 75). using colder water than the soil can cause stress and slow growth
 
im using flourecs. lights. cool white? for veg? im using basic soil mix with bout 40 % perlite. what lights should i use. im running them at 24-0

NO nutes you need more light homie. Hopefully you wont have to worry about transplanting for a while now. I bet they are glad that's over! Good luck happy growing.
 
yeah, i started in plastic solo cups. te red ones. so i think it stunted them. i t/p them yesterdday so hopefuly all will be well. i am going to lowes tomo. to see about more lights. thx all.

Yea dude for sure they're looking great but they definatley have a long way to go. Make sure you add soil up to about 2 cm under their first set of leaves. If you bury that stem it will sprout roots. Try to buy Daylight spectrum or sunlight spectrum you want 41000K or higher. Cool white just barely hits 41000K.

lighting isnt your issue, if it were the plant would be way stretchy. what does "basic soil" mean? im wondering if nutrients, or maybe some other factor, could be stressing your plant into not growing

can you please describe your set up in detail? the name and kind of soil, the N-P-K of the soil if you know(if it does contain nutrients), the PH of your water and any other information you can provide
 
the brand is earth=gro. got it at lowes, it doesnt say the actual n-p-k on the bag. p.h. of my water is around 6.6-6.9. ant the run-off. idk if maybe where i had in solo cups if it stunted???
This product is regionally formulated from organic materials (primarily derived from one or more of the following: hypnum peat, forest products or compost), sand, perlite and a wetting agent. thats what the bag says.
