    Looks fine for now, is that a peat pot as well? Personally, I can't stand peat. Never liked it... too acidic and hydrophobic after the surfactant rinses away, peat pots I've used once and never again.

    What do you plan on feeding her?

    Well, it's not what I'd use but if I had to I'd use no more than 1/4 strength. Chemical nutrients can grow plants but there's more work involved than just mixing and pouring. You'll have to flush, monitor and adjust ph, and adjust your nutrient doses as the plant's needs change throughout it's life. Fuck that shit, some good organic plant food is all I need to grow some fat buds. :smoke:

    Your plant is growing just fine.

    I would highly advise not using any fertilizer until you see a true set of three bladed leaves, that is my rule of thumb.

    my 2 cents :hello:

    Edit: I also have only used MG and have gotten nice results from it.

    I use 100% outdoor nature's soil. (Don't do that unless you have good soil)
    Also again, this is what I use personally:
    Vegging: MG 30-10-10
    Flowering: MG 15-30-15

    Watch out I know that my MG doesn't contain any magnesium or sulfur!

    Pure magnesium sulfate 1/8 tsp per gallon of full dose of fertz solves that problem for me.
    Good luck Growing!

    Here's one of my outdoor 2012 buds currently growing:

    Hehe, the macro mode + zoom is your best friend.
    You should have macro mode since our phones are so similar.

    Important to turn your picture gps tag setting off before taking pics.

    Unknowingly, you can take a picture and "encrypt" it with the exact gps coordinates on Earth only to be read by smart computer people or the feds possibly...You can understand the sort of disaster that could cause.

    Grow safe :smoke:

    Yeah I got the zoom...didn't even realize...only had the phone for a month

    And yeah I made sure the "store location " under camera settings is set to off
