    I guess it depends on the strain and what you mean by two weeks. How close is the light. Miracle grow can be rough on seedlings because of its high nutrient content.

  3. Well They're Actually Three Weeks From Seed. strain Is Unknown, But Its Very Potent, Were Given By Another Mmj Patient. Same Strain As The Last Two Grows. Not Swag That's For Sure.
     
  4. How are your temps? Try to get the light a bit closer if you can and you might see them grow faster.

    They do look pretty decent. Here's a photo I took today of a couple seedlings that sprouted a little over a week ago.

    EDIT: These are under a 1000W MH which is about 22" from these babies.
     
  6. Peat pots never did me any favors, even my outdoor veggies had problems in them. Congrats on your lighting upgrade, that's a big leap from cfl.

    Cheers and good luck!! :bongin:
     
  7. You can grow some fatter buds now, there is no free lunch when growing. You get out what you put in.
     
    put 2 600w in there when you flower.
     
  8. not enough room for 2 lights :/, but i am really looking forward to how the new light produces...
    i have a crazy idea... the babies are 3 weeks from seed, would veggin them in the tent for 5 more weeks then throwing them outside to veg out completely for another 8 weeks be beneficial? bigger yield maybe? or should they just go the standard 8 veg 8 flower then harvest?
     
    regardless of exporting outside or keep in tent; thinking transplanting to bigger pots around week 7. right now theyre in .71 gallon pots then move to final 2.7 gallon nursery pots.
     
  9. LOL the days of 8 week veg are over if you have that light in the tent. It wont take you 8 weeks to have the tent stuffed.

    5/18 11 days from last pic... anyone have any idea why the three on the right arent growing and branching like the others? all condition are identical! except for 2 plants, all the others are from the same strain same batch of seeds.was thinking bout hitting them with a higher dose of grow nutes. Been using dyna gro - grow 1/2 a tea spoon per gallon once a week.
