This is my first grow so I thought I would get some opinions / advice. I might make this a journal if there is enough interest.
OK, so here is where we are:
There are 11 plants total of bagseed genetics, all still in seedling stage.
First I stuck 2 germinated seeds each in little flower pots, and have given them attention since day one. As they became seedlings, For a little bit they were getting 10-11 hours of direct sunlight. I let them go a night in 45 degree weather and checked them the next morning and they actually seemed to have a bit of considerable growth overnight. The next night (last night) however, was to get to 37 degrees fahrenheit so I decided to take them indoors.
At about 9:15 this morning, it rose to 41 degrees and cloudy, and decided to move them back outdoors. The high today is supposed to be 59.
The other 9 plants were from 10 seeds I stuck in a tray and forgot about. After checking back last night after a few weeks, I saw 9 little seedlings. I transplanted 2 into a 3-gallon pot and I'm going to kill the worst looking one after a while and keep them there throughout their life. Another one I transplanted into a little cup. When it gets the size of the cup I am going to have to transplant it again. The 6 in the tray right now are fighting for space so I plan on transplanting them as quick as possible.
This grow was a little unwell planned at this point since I have no soil or pots. The soil I used right now is an unknown organic soil I had laying around from a tomato grow last year. I may scrap a few of these plants since I plan on planting until June anyways. I've been wanting to keep a few autoflowers in pots because they flower quicker, and there is going to be a month I most likely won't be able to tend to my plants at all (as I will be on the whole other side of the country) I have to keep this grow outdoors as much as I can as I'd prefer my housemates not to know about them, but if the weather is too cold today I can move them in. There really isn't even any sun, just cloud, so I'm not sure if I am harming them more than doing good.
