one week old since now they reached the surface =]

one is just gettin fat and growing fast while one is a runt and got its water leaves slighty burned because it came up and opened with wet leaves and the light basically killed those two little spots. also the runts roots visibly reached the water 3 days ago. the other two are growin average at the same pace

I NEEED MORE BUBBLES!!!

check it out..:blsmoke:

next week when i get my airstones and dual port air pump ill be changin the water to 5.9 ph and 150 ppm or so

oh and some more info..

water temps are probably around high 60s or low 70s
room temp is 70-75F dark and around 78-88F light
distilled water with flora nova grow and slightly acidic water
planted the seeds in the rockwool and let em bubble with light on 24/7 and they were out in 4 days
now its been a week and no problems and the plants look very healthy =]
 
UPDATE!

they are about three weeks old and two days now and i got em on about 120 ppm or so of floranova grow ph of 5.7

new growth is good fast and green and the browning on the lower leaves seemed to stop or slow down alot.. slight yellowing aswell.

the back left is kinda dededee if you see one on the 3 blade leaves only has two and the 5 blade set has 4 haha.

the back right is growing out four sets of stem and leafs comin out on each node

front 2 are very pretty and symetrical.

theyre all startin to smell delicious :clap:

thanks all for help on the problems!:leaf::leaf:

today is the beginning of the 4th week a little problem last wate change. i fucked the ph all up but i drained that fluctuating water and added some stable 5.9 PH'D water with about 300-350 ppm i keep puttin the light up higher so they can stretch to it instead of bushin out. the roots are already like a good 1.5 foot long. i dont think i can veg for much longer i need to flower soon i dont have much root space and flowering will take another two months or somethin haha i can only imagin how rooted they will be umm humidity is getttin higher now gets up to 60 at night when the light is off, around thirty in the day i got my circulation fans going but its about time to get a fan to sturdy up the stalk i think. we plan on flowering next week the 20th. :leaf:

great work bud. wonder why nobody else has commented on this great grow. are u gonna top them before flowering?
 
top them? ah it is not great haha i already fucked up the ph like three times so they could be bigger even i think. haha yeah it was for a while! i was just like fuck it after a minute i was wantin alot of feedback but oh well. it is cool for me to see again anyways ya know.

thanks guys made my day knowing someone else is lookin at my babies haha
 
search topping in the form. its cutting the main stem after the fourth or fifth node so the main stem separates and now rather than having one main cola at the top, you will grow 2 or even 4. this increases yield.
 
oh i wasnt sure cause i thought mine were way past that stage. not enough room man but thatd be cool though. stay tuned for flowering time!
 
They are getting so fat and bushy now. they are 9"- 7 1/2"
the roots are getting tangled already, i think next time i will get a bigger res!
honestly with another two months to go they are gonna be a little cramped..

take a look at some of my pics. i will be posting better ones and mind that i raised the light a little to take the pics im not stretchin em too much =]

here they are!



oh and p.s. what are the stems that come out between the leaf stem and main stalk?

they're completely new branches with their own growth tips that will form into colas if you can get them enough light.

haha on the runt a couple are getting taller than the damn plant is!! haha thats fuckin cool man. so `which would be ok to cut into a clone or two do you know? i wanna give a friend one that grows in soil. can i stick it in rooting compound and then into potting soil?
 
they're perfect for clones. new clones typically go into water or a cloner that spits water at the roots. a clone cannot go into soil until it has formed some roots.
 
I take it youre using a high pressure sodium lamp? I have to get me one of those, these t12's just arent cutting it.
your plants are looking good
