mold is NASTY!
Man, that ventilation has to be good... air circulation, or mold comes up quickly. Second, you brought them outside.. i would never do that, you risk getting bugs.. and bugs can be worse than mold.
From your last post, you said you watered every 3 or 4 days, if that's the case, you are under watering. If you were over watering, the leaves would start turning yellow and start dieing faster... under watering, they usually just droop excessively.
subscribed to yours as well.
After I noticed the mold I checked the bag of soil and it smelled sour. I immediately threw it out. I didnt take the plants out side. I took the other soil I had to let it dry out in the sun. It is on my balcony.

The circulation is pretty good. I have an oscillating fan, an exhaust fan, and the door cracked open with a fan bringing fresh air in.

When my phone is fixed I will post some new pics. Probably next week some time.
Thanks for the input man. I really appreciate it. Your plants are looking great!

Yes, yes, yes,...odor control is something you should think of well before starting your crop. I grow indoors, and grow only low-odor strains. This includes "northern-lights", and a few others.
Cheers,

Finally an update with pics!

After trying to get my phone fixed for a month, its back in the shop again. The phone company gave me a loaner phone until they can get my phone fixed correctly.

I currently have seven plants but the other three arent worth taking pictures of yet.

So here we go(again sorry for the pic quality).

Asobi: I topped Asobi two weeks ago and you can now see the two tops coming out. I was trying to fimm but it didnt turn out the way i expected. Yes, I am a noob so I tried my best.



Seksu: She has been through a lot. I had a problem with my first soil and she wasnt liking it. I finally got that taken care of a few weeks back when I found a shop that specializes in soil, hydroponics, and cats??? They sell cats too? Weird shit.

My new mixture is 40%soil,40% perlite, and 20% peat moss.

I also tried to fimm her but it didnt go very well, the new growth looks kind of strange, I think three tops are coming out?

Plant#3

This plant has been doing great, I have had no problems with it. Its actually catching up to Seksu

Plant #4

This plant is right behind 3 and im hoping to transplant soon.

I am planning on switching to 12/12 on 4/20:-P

I have to have my plants finished by the end of June because my lease is up in mid July. Any input on time restraints for this??

Also, Asobi has thin leaves like a sativa but the others have fatter leaves hopefully like an indica. These are all from the same bag in China. Dont know anything about the strain and didnt smoke it. I havent smoked in about a year so when these babies are finished I will be having a good time.

Looking nice now mate, how long was u thinkin of vegging for?
I am going to veg until 4/20 and then i will switch to 12/12. That will give me ten weeks for flowering and then two weeks later after that ive got to move into my new apartment.

that one sprout looks supper dry and droopy and the soil looks a little chunky. Its roots might be drying up
You are right actually, I had to leave for three days and didnt have anyone to take care of them. I am hoping that It will make it through. I watered it as soon as I got back.
That pic was taken the next day so I am hoping that in a few days it will be alright.
