1 week since my last photo update. I'm not stoked with this grow but am optimistic even though its behind my usual seed, sprout, seedling, veg cycle stature at 23 days.

Some variables in play:
1. new tent - 2x2x4 - intended to buffer normal grow due to long light cycle requirement.
1a. New ventilation needs - trying 4" PC fans on controller to drive in/out air flow
1b. New RH management
2. new medium - never used this brand coco, nor have I run this high % perlite. Dries quickly and think root zone is not happy.
3. new to autos - always used normal or feminized seed. Not blaming Mephisto only me.
4. transplant schedule - do not damage the tap root during transplant, go from 16oz to 7g at 2 weeks. I usually go longer, but saw fellas in big pots early and thats what the grow guide said to do.
5. summer heat - stunted growth, although temps ranged from 75-82 with RH of 45-65.
