Thanks! I'm leaving for a family visit for 5 days in 2 days, do you think I could just water them it the day before I leave and she should be fine?

Just water them b4 you leave. A seedling is not going to use much water and you should be fine until you get back.
Thank you very much.
Wahoo! Once she sprouted she really took off!
Second set of leaves already growing in strong. I'd like to know if this is a sativa/indica strain because I got the seed from a friend that was unsure.
I also have a video introducing my whole grow box and inside it! Pictures are taken from the video.

Yes that's 20Celsius (Around 70 Fahrenheight)
Also this is day 6, I'd like to know is this good growth for 6 days of sprout?

I was considering a 2x2 floor 4ft tall and hanging a 250w hps vertical in it. I'll probably do some 2x2 either 2 or 3 ft tall for breeding in with smaller lights like you have there.
I don't have experience with soil, but keep those cfl lights as close as you possibly can. Stack those nodes tight that way.

Thanks for the advice, I literally tried fixing the lights to lower them, but the one in front (42watter) just is monstorous compared to the 26watters, so it overweights and the lights on the opposite side of it touch the walls, so I used the metal hanger and thats as far down as it will go without bending.

Looks like a healthy little sprout to me!

Looks fine. I'm pretty noob myself, just passing on advice on the cfl's and making the most compact plant you can. Also, do you have a circulation fan in there? A light breeze encourages it to build a solid stem. I can tell a big difference on my plants and have to move my fan around to get them all. You want enough to just barely make the plant move. If fan is too strong my try pointing it at a wall at an angle, will create a current of air around.
I have two fans, if you download and watch the video you can see, but I have a big fan that's pulling in air from outside the cab, into it and it set on its lowest setting is pretty strong, more than enough to make the plant move. But the plant barely has gotten over the rim of the container its planted in. I also have a smaller fan in the top of the cab thats sucking air out of the cab. Can I mod my fan to dim the speed down?
I've heard of fan speed controllers but I can't find any threads about them now. Anyways I guess i'lljust have to shut the fan off when it gets taller.
Trip to the hardware store, bought some activated carbon, root stimulation (with starter fertilizer 5-15-5 in it), digital temp. and Relative humidity gauges on it. Also bought a 20watt 65000K, now have (2) 26W 6500k, (1) 20Watt 6500k and (1) 42watt 2700k.Total wats now are 114 watts, more than enough for one plant!
I also made a carbon filter, with a can, high sock, and dremel tool for holes.The biobag thing is the white mesh and the carbon. 4$.
I also took ANOTHER trip to the hardware store, bought a one time soil ph tester for a dollar. also bought plain carbon to full up my carbon filter even more. I also bought 84in x 54in emergency blanket for 3 dollars, did a bad job of putting it up in the box but its still working! thing is huge. got home and took some rips off some blue hazePicture time.

Fill that cab up with as many as u can, throughout ur grow! That way u will have plants in different cycles! I have been doing it now for about 60days and its so much easier! I run my Cab at night, lower temps and just extra Stealthy! Looks like a good start keep it up!
I maybe will try that after I have one successful harvest, looks like this ones going perfect. In fact I just tested the soil's PH. Nearly perfect, I'd say 6.9 ;D
