One week pictures coming soon.
Here are pictures of the plants at day 7 (today). I have also attached a picture of the light proofing method I used.

I have been keeping them on a 24 hour light schedule and have yet to run into any problems.

You may also see from the pictures that I still need to throw something white up on those walls... Any suggestions?

Thanks! I actually plan on transplanting in a few days.

I knew that I would be transplanting before the roots reached the cup wall and I chose the cups being they are so incredibly easy to use when transplanting.

I still have not decided on my new pot(s) though :(

ill try update you as much as i can or scibe my thread bro it shall be interesting
I topped the tallest plant last night. When I awoke the plant still seemed very healthy and has shown no signs of weakness.

All other plants are growing very quickly and looking very healthy.

I am in the process of gradually decreasing the time of light from 24hr light to 18/6. Once I have reached 18/6, I will keep them there for one week and then proceed by changing the schedule again to 12/12 to begin the flowering process.

Ok well I just bought a half and plan on going to take a few days away from home at a buddies house, a state over.

Being this, I had to throw a timer on the box today which I was previously procrastinating with. So the plants will start their first day of 18/6 tonight at 10:00PM.

Does anyone have any ideas for a watering system while I am gone for 3 days?

I was thinking... My Dutchie tubes keep my seeds perfectly... What if I set them up to drip in each pot? A slow drip should hold them for 3 days certainly.

i would say don't water them for a day let them breath, and then give them a good soaking. Should hold them off for 3 days. Or get an aqua globe. they work when the soil gets dry it lets air in and water out. you can make one out of a water bottle also.

Hey everyone, sorry for the sluggish response. I have bad and good news here.

When I came back from my small vacation I found my plants had been neglected by the person who was supposed to look after them.

Some light burns on the first pair of every plants leaves. No worries though, as I topped one of them which has came back strong with four new stems. This was the second tallest plant at the time.

The largest plant is doing the best out of all the plants and is close to 6 inches tall excluding pot.

I also purchased the wall outlet to light socket adapters which were previously mentioned in this thread. Very good stuff!

When would everyone suggest flowering? I have all 6 plants in the box but things are getting tight and 3 of the plants need to be transplanted. So I either need to start another box or start flowering to see which are males and which are females to make more room.

These are bagseed so who knows what I will get.

After that is answered, I also am curious about nutes.

Attached, is a picture of the largest plant with all others close behind.

hows the 12/12 did they start to flower yet?
Yeah and I am honestly thinking one looks like a male but it could use the rest of the day in order to get a better look. The topped plant is a few days behind but looks great.

The third plant is a little behind the topped plant. I will update soon. Pictures to be included.

notorious everything looks amazing~! do you have a picture of your topped plant?

In the pictures, everything looks like shit. I was short on money so I used what I had.

I will get some pictures either tonight or tomorrow as I have a much better setup now. I added some mylar tape to the walls. I ran out half way through so I have to get some more. I also have a nice little web cam set up to monitor growth easily. In addition I added a fan so I have 3 in total.
