How do the babies look? First time DWC

Hey guys, I have two three day old (since seed emerging) White Widows in DWC with 1/10th nutrients under the sun (14 hr, 32degree c days) I put one in the bubbles yesterday from soil and the other one went in today. They seemed to suffer no ill effects from the transplant but the one I put in yesterday looks like something has been nibbling it and seems a little limp today. Can I spray a little pyrethrum spray or not and what is the chance that the little seedlings will start deteriorating in the heat. How many hours should I have them out in the sun? Thanks.:-P

Why not leave them outside? Hauling that tote in and one every day is going to get tiresome. especially when they get big.

I wouldn't be worried about the temp of the plants. I'd be more worried about the water temperature. Cannabis can and always will grow outside in varying conditions. Having that tub sitting outside all day the water IMO would get pretty warm which would be a breeding ground for bacteria. Can you plant them in your yard without worry?

People have outside grows in Florida. I think we all know it's hot as balls down there.

I thought it would get hot and it did, so I wrapped the box in dull side foil and the water stays cool, even today after 14 hours of 33 degrees Celsius. The tub is going in the garden soon and just left there.:-o

Yea, don't worry about how hot it is outside. It's their natural environment and they will thrive just fine. Water temperature should be the concern. Keep an eye on that. You should get one of those stick on fish tank thermometers so you know the temp of the water.
