Hey everyone,
I'm brand new to here and to growing, but I've been roaming here a lot lately doing my research to get started.
20 days ago I got 9 White Widow seeds soaking. As of now they're in solo cups full of holes, in a 50/50 mix of FF Happy Frog and Ecoscraps. I just gave them their first dose of food a couple days ago (homemade with coffee grounds, molasses, and powdered phosphoric acid, mixed to about a 2-1-1). They're getting watered about ever 1-1.5 days (I let the soil get almost full dry first) and it's been with water from our well, and a small amount of H2O2. The lights are four 26w (100w equivalent) 5,000k CFLs. They have a small amount of CO2 added as well (at about 700ppm), a nice gentle breeze, and the area stays at about 75° day, 65° night. They are on 18/6 also.
(Back story: I had a heat issue which almost killed all of the plants, and did kill 2, leaving me with 7. All but the 2 that died recovered fully in about 3 days though.)
So, my main question... don't these seem pretty small for day 20? I mean, I know WW grows smaller, and they are getting a lot of new growth, but jeez... I was hoping to flower at about 45 days, but at this rate, that's not looking too hopeful. I know they're not under a lot of light (which will change soon.) but even at that, they still seem small looking at other people's similar grows. I mean, these don't even fully cover the top of the cup, only 1/4 to 1/2 of it (although at least they're not geting stretchy). Lastly, the picture is of the biggest one. 4 are about this big, and 3 are about half the size. suggestions, thoughts?
Much appreciated!
