I'll concur with the being too moist. Slows root growth.

thank for all your views, actually i just spray the water over it and my light has pretty good distance with it 40-50 cm.. it is still intense from that distance but my cobs are 3000k im bit worried about it to close the difference I also have couple blues but whatever ..
im thinking same drainage or evaporation does not happening soo it stays in wet soil i planted two more seed in a different medium with small cups lets see what will happen

Yeah, I'm going to go with whitebb2727 on this based on your post; some plants just take a while to get rolling. Hopefully it will take off when you least expect it to. Good luck!

Not much to report, besides they're growing.... didnt check my ph for 2 days in the aero setup cuz i got used to the set it and forget-it-ness of my last run so they curled a bit and let the soil pass them. Got my mind back in the game and they're catchin back up!

I'm still waiting for mine to arrive!
Wonder if customs got'em in Chicago.... All you sharing internet photo freaks have GOT to stop taking pictures of what you got and the contents of the package!
If you think the alphabet boys aren't looking to see who's sending and getting what....Your foolish!
Oh, look, it's a package that contains "clothing" from a "suspected" or listed no-no shipper! X-ray time! Oh look! Suspected contraband! Open and confiscate! Place person on "list", retape with customs tape and send it along!
Idiots!

Did someone post an unpacking video? Pretty sure i just saw pics of shirts and seeds, no packaging(didnt go back and read but pretty sure someone asked for pics of shirts). Im 10000000000000000% sure customs is far past knowing seeds come in shirts or whatever other "gift" you may order. Im sure a company can be red flagged but being that 99% of us recieved them already, highly doubt thats the case. Just my .02

Naw no unpacking video for this thread and they already know what to look for anyway it's a risk we all take shipping seeds into the states. The alphabet boys and customs already know what their looking for but unpacking videos are still dumb IMO

Dude seriously?
You think they haven't opened a bunch and know how they are shipped?
Laughable.
Chill. Some pics of some shirts isn't going to shut the seed banks down.
Now, I'll agree that I won't show some of the more elaborate ways to hide beans but shirts have been used since the beginning.
This is how many threads now we have posted the shirts?

i'm sure there are at least 100 active seed banks out there, and thats a conservative estimate.
if each one of them has 20 orders a day thats 2000 packages of seeds going out to places all over the world. some of them legal, some not. if you say that just half of them are going to places that aren't legal, thats still 1000 packages of seeds a day. i do not think the authorities are ignoring this, i think they don't have the man power to effectively stop it. thats why we're getting letters saying "stop being a bad boy" instead of a knock on the door from customs agents.
do not confuse this with advice to ignore proper precautions.
just selling seeds has become a multi million dollar a year industry, i don't think there are enough customs agents out there to deal with the situation, and as the whole cannabis industry continues to grow, they'll have no choice but to accept it eventually, or they'll have to hire half the country to be prison guards for the other half.

Its just not seeds. I've got the green letter for other contraband ordered through the mail. Never a knock.
They don't have the manpower for it.

i've read about that light cycle before but never used it, it just seems....strange.
it works according to those that use it....not sure i'd use it till the plant was well established though

Ya, us Midwesterners know how tuff it can be getting through Chicago, but mine actually made it. I dont think a pic of a shirt will tip em off any more than they already know at this point. They might just be held up for a bit. My last order before this comparative was stalled out in Chi customs for about 12 days before it moved, then another 4-5 days for it to arrive after clearing. No green tape, but took a bit to get to my door. Thats not including the time it took to get from the sender to Chi.

I would just stick to 18-6 or 20-4. These odd light schedules don't seem right to me. Maybe they will work,but my goal is to do my best to create nature in my tent. The sun doesn't shine for an hour in the middle of the night. At least not where I have ever seen. So I would recommend a normal,proven light schedule and I bet your plants will prosper.

honestly, with an auto, i think i would (and will) go 24/0 one day, 20/4 the next. i wouldn't do that to a regular plant, i've seen all the research that says they don't need any night during veg, but every time i try that my plants don't seem to like it, it may just be psychological, but they seem to slow down to me, like they don't have as much vigor without at least a 4 hour nap each day

I'm running 18/6 and I'm getting nice fast growth so I'm sticking to it
