I would do it now so there's less roots to mess with. That's Why I start mine in what I finish in.

I'd hold off a little longer before transplanting ... let it grow another 3 inches . And give it a good shot of B1 before its gonna help allot with the stress factor .

Yeah, they are pretty short though the leaves, to my eyes seem large in comparison. is it usual for them to be this short, I would have thought they'd be a little taller by now. MInd you, it's always around 30C and the humidity doesn't get very high at all, maybe this is why they are still kinda short. On a different note, I'm off to pick up a couple of clones today. :)

From seed its always a little longer then growing clones ... Post some pics when u get the clones :) I wonder what the clones are gonna be in :P maybe jiffy's ...
U can transplant clones directly into there final pots IF u can see a nice root construction around the jiffy ( or what ever its in ) If its in a 2'x2' pot with soil I'd let it sit in there for another 5 days before transplanting . best of luck ! Don't forget the b1 :)

Just got back in with the clones, basically just cuttings at this point, not exactly what I was expecting. They are in rock wool and were dipped in gel but they are so very small, lol. A few years ago, when we were living in Quebec, I bought 3 clones from someone and they were about 12 to 18 inches tall, in pots and all ... these are simple cutting with barely any sort of roots and looking quite frail to be honest. One is a Purple Kush and the other a White OG.

I'll wait a couple of days to see if they survive and then I'll show pics of them. :)

We lived in Montreal but when I got those clones, we had a house up in the Laurentians for about 4 years, we had lost of land but only grew those 3 plants in back of the house, was really yummy stuff. These clones are pitifully small, only about 3 inches and right now, it's anyone's guess if they will even survive the night, will see by tomorrow. :)

Ok, so here is a pic I took just now of the two clones I bought from a medical M grower yesterday. I think that they are just about dead ... lesson learned; I'll cut my own clones, lol.

Yeah, Montreal rocks for sure. Now we are just outside of Toronto and love being in the region. I'm still seeing if I can save the mini clones but if not, I will be making my own. I was just excited to have his because of the strains ( White OG and a Purple Kush ).

Thank you SteezyDee, still waiting to see if the cuttings ahemmm, I mean clones, will bounce back, got them under a dome and placed a water container in with them for more humidity. If they do root, great, because I really would love to eventually see that White OG cutting become a full grown plant with yummy buds. :)

Pics from this morning, the plants measure from 2 to 3+ inches after 14 days. They have nice leaves though I would have thought they would have already been a little taller for some reason ( that may be my impatience, lol ).

Will be adding a second humidifier today in order to get the RH higher ( it sits at 30% )

Looking good!! My girls are 1 day behind yours :) It will be fun to run this grow side by side. If you look at my journal, you will see 2 humidifiers right next to my girls and it keeps the RH about 44% I have one more humidifier I can add... but it is has about 2 to 3 weeks dedicated to the drying of my one bag seed. I got to grab a more mature bud top this past Thursday and I quick dried for testing.. Going to love the finished product as the 'taste test' was very good and potent (ok, I am a light weight with getting commercial and all for the longest time) It is nice to be able to produce something that cost an arm and leg for in small quantities.

Having some difficulties with the interior of the grow space, I didn,t put up any inside walls and just taped and stapled the thin mylar sheets to the frame. Now, in part from the rotating fan and the carbon filter connected to the exhaust fan, the mylar gets regularly ripped from the staples and tape, resulting in an inward ballooning of the mylar, it tends to tear and so the humidity escapes and the heat is too high ... a live and learn experience. What I'm going to do for now is try and patch things up and hope the 6 plants I have begun will strive and get to harvest.

If not, and at the very latest, I am going to use the whole bedroom ( 11ft. L x 8ft. W x 8ft. H ) plus the closet as a clone / veg space. This means getting one or even two more HPS light systems and a T5 fluorescent for the clones. At least this way I can have a much better control over temps and humidity.

Did you staple directly through the mylar into the beams? Try putting a small piece of cardboard above the mylar, where you staple... That way the mylar wont rip from the staple! It'll work.
