Default How am I looking so far- noobies first try
Planted a few plants indoors and plan on putting them outdoors once the weather is nice enough. I have durbank poison and new purple passion seeds. Using a 18/6 light schedule and have them under two shop lights with warm, cool and veg bulbs. I also have a heat mat under them that I started all of my seedlings with and two cfl lights as well.
They are about 2 1/2 -3 weeks old

Plants should be going outside in about two weeks. I'd estimate that they are about 4 1/2 weeks old. I had added a blue/red led board for more light. A couple will be planted right into the ground and the rest will be going into 10 gal containers. The plants that will be going into containers will be moved next week because the cups they are in just aren't big enough at this point.

My biggest issues has been watering. They seem to suck up water like crazy but I don't want to over water them. Every third watering they are getting water mixed with some guano grow. They also had a little issue with bending but it was mainly due to the lights not being raised quick enough as they were growing. The past week they have really picked up the pace. The plants that have at least 4 sets of leafs have been filmed and growth is already starting again (I really thought I was going end up killing them in the process).



Here are some updated photos. Sorry for the quality, my better camera died on me

Looking good! Moving outdoors can be a shock and has killed more than a few plants. You might want to try and ease them into it over a week.

I plan on using the hardening routine that I use for veggies that I start indoors. A few hours in the shade, few more, then a little sunlight. I'll probably harden them for about a week or so.

Yes, all of the cups were drilled out on the bottom. For the most part they are all watered via the holes in the bottom. All the cups are in trays and I add water to the trays and let the plants soak it up. If a cup seems a little dry then I will give it a little water at the top.

Prob too early but can anyone tell any signs of sex from these pics? Also does the purple passion strain start to show the coloring when the plant is in the flowering stage?

I would Transplate some of those to bigger containers man, they look a little big for those cups... when u water 2 make sure about 10% of the water you put in comes out the bottom from the drain holes,

Also when ur putting them out side about 5-6 days before fully putting them outside, let them site outside for 2-3hrs every day so they get us to it.

also other good rule of thumb when it comes to watering is zto put ur finger about 2inchs into the dirt and if it feels damp they are ok if they are dry water them.

what kind of light u using right now??,, and any idea what the strain is
