They both look good but can you get me a pic under a bluer light? There's too much yellow interference for me to be able to say, thanks Dboy.

Definitely different pic will help. You don't want to xplant them until they establish some roots in that first pot.

Nice. FYI/IMO....don't stress too much about "humidity". Higher humidities, IMO, is where all the BS goes on. Here in CO we're pretty dry overall....big swings from high humidty in the AM to sometimes single digit shit in the heat of the afternoon. Like pH...I don't "chase' it/try to rectify it...I just go with it.
Are you growing outside as well? (sorry if I missed that info...had to take some time off from here) Good luck man!

Here's new pics don't know if any better but Chernobyl does not seem happy in this environment. Rh is at 50 to 55 and light way down and going to leave em that way. Temps 77 most days but night closet gets to 67. So I put humidifier on to keep warm and so when light goes on.

Just reading your thread and wonder if you have any controllers for your intake and exhaust fans? The one photo it appears that you have a temperature controller. Am I right?
Anyway, the reason I ask is that I was never able to "dial in" my environment, until I purchased the AC INFINITY controller for my intake and exhaust. The controller uses a sensor capable of sensing temperature as well as humidity, which seems to make it alot easier to keep parameters in check with setpoints that trigger the fans to turn on and off. The controller also allows for a minimum speed on the fans to constantly have at least some airflow even while temperature and humidity are within ideal conditions. Just a thought. Also, there are other companies making similar equipment, I just went with AC Infinity.

Thanks yea I got this controller was tight on money so bought the 40 one. No intake only exhaust and it's a commercial one that's hooked up to controller kicks on when gets to 78 then stops at 75. Your right I put sensor in different spots and reading was different like a ft difference. I was going to get a small fan for moving air once they get bigger. Yea I seen your grows your dialed for sure.

Well, I understand not being able to afford certain items, money is tight. I just couldn't get consistent conditions until I got the controller and fans. My first grow failed because of this (plus overwatering). I hope you find success along the way.

That's all I got dialed is the watering,lol. It's these hlg qb panels I gotta get dialed, also now I learned what they were and how hot they get. Just dialed back again and set them back on top of a five gallon bucket, had em closer because they were stretching but even dimmed and 35 inches away they were happy for a week then noticed a spot like others I just fried. So moved back to were they were stretching.

Having a consistent controlled environment gave me the chance to grow happy plants. I started growing in a SIP, and that helped with my watering issues (another topic on its own).
I am still very much a newbie. This website is a godsend in my opinion. So many knowledgeable and helpful people.

Exactly,everything I have is from all different members here. Seriously blessed I have everything I need just gotta get past the finicky stage of seedlings with these lights. Now I know what they can do just dim way down.

Don't beat yerself up. I grew for 30 years under HID and these LED's are a damn pain in the ass/have their own set of problems they bring with.
I had to buy a meter to be sure I wasn't fryin' em/giving more light than is useable.
Yup...things go real slow when you watch. I've gotten to the point after so many years/grows and no real need for the weed where it's one of those "Hmmm...I should probably check and see if they are OK" gigs here. Then I water em good and forget em again for a few days.
Sounds like yer getting a feel for things though. Experience is the best teacher. It's something no one can get from a "Podcast". In the olden days..you know...eons ago...before the Net...it was really fun. LOL. "Fly or die"...and "Fuck me. Won't do that again" were common sayings in my space...

Yea no kidding,lol I'm done with YouTube with all this, I'll stick with you guys. I went into rabbit hole on soils and fertilizer and everything in-between. Until a buddies wife just said it's a plant don't make it complicated. Guy I work with grows outside for 30 years and was just feeding miracle grow and all plants were awesome. Just turned tasteless after all his work because he dries it in a cold barn with two fans blowing on them because of bud rot setting in from harvest date here rain and cold in October. Need strains that are made for the weather or finish early I know your deal with all that fun. That's what I'm trying to ask him to throw a couple where he grows since he's got two years of harvest just sitting and no one to off it to. So this year only doing a few so maybe he'll let me do mine.

I won some freakshow beans. They grow all weird and don't even look like weed. I can send you some if you want to give them a go outside at your place. They stay low and have leaves like a fern.

I definitely appreciate your perspective. That's why i say these things here and not to them. But respect comes in as many forms as disrespect. I'd love to just be buddy dad, but weak men make weak men. This world is way too shitty to be gentle on fear of losing one. I know that is easy to say from my perspective, but this place will chew you up and spit you out if nobody warms you about it. I'd rather them say "you know, that asshole was right." Instead of "why didn't that asshole warn us about any of this?"

There's good info out there...but yeah...you have to be wary.
The tasteless weed scenario could be genetics...the drying process...or the MG. Don't let him fert yer plants if he lets ya grow there.
He is smarter than me though if he's backing off cus I have yet to be able to figure out how to just run a few...You likely have the season length there to grow more variety than I can here....but you have the mildew/mold factor that we rarely see here. In 30+ years of in/out growing I've only seen bud rot once indoors and once outdoors....and..knock on wood...I've never seen PM. Just too dry...and I don;t play the VPD game or purposely raise humidity/etc. We have a greenhouse we treat the same way. I have a dehuey that keeps things below 45% and takes the worry of all of that away. Just not worth it here...

Haha,if that happens we're I can throw a couple he won't be touching em for sure. He doesn't even smoke that's why he's said don't know why I even bother this year growing any I talked him into it. He got money and says I got to do something with all this or it will go bad I showed him how to make bubble and says you need bubble bags and a rv washer that's like 100 bucks. So cheap this guy. He stopped with mg and uses seaweed and fish fertilizer and fox farms nutes. Every year I try any strains and no taste just smell. One had great piney flavor from jack herer and lemon from Durban poison but everything else nothing. After a cure for a month also nothing. When he gives me some crumbs I dry em right but there the mids from the plants he takes all the tops for himself, greedy. I water them when he takes a vacation and keep an eye on em just selfish, that's what Started this closet grow.There's good info out there...but yeah...you have to be wary.
