  3. Patient my friend. Roots are doing work right now because the pot is too big. Should see top growth any day now.

  5. A few things here.
    You're growing a seedling in a 3.5 gallon pot, which means you will need to be patient as that tiny sliver of green grows out roots enough to fill that pot before it's going to start growing out new leaves. Plants build the basement before the rest of the building, same as us. That's why people recommend you start a seedling in a small container for a couple of weeks, and then transfer it over.
    It's kind of hard to judge how it's doing, but it's not dead, and that's generally a very good sign. I would keep like 1000-1500 lumens on it (moderate light) and water it very sparingly. Your plant is tiny, it's going to use a thimbleful of water. Use a spray bottle most days, only pouring water for the taproots once a week.
    Just remain calm and carry on. You've kept it alive this long, so you're doing fine. The plant will do the rest.

  6. Sound advice here.
    I planted 4 seeds directly into a 5 gallon smart pot 2 weeks ago and i am on my 4th/5th node.
    As stated above be very careful with watering as she is in a large container
    As long as ur watering correctly for the pot size, you should start seeing some positive growth soon.
    Using root stimulator may help !
    Good luck

  7. 14 days huh? Looks like you didnt even water the soil<_< I should of noticed earlier.
    My top soil has never looked that dry, even when pot is light. Something tells me a little water will kickstart things.

  11. Dont water near it,,water around outer perimeter so itll search for it and roots will end up spreading out then when it does its thing itll have nice healthy long root tips....and be patient and before u know itll bush!!

  12. Another thing dont over water but keep it damp/wet!! It gets fully dry then u water itll create air pockets and wont allow roots to get to food source(s)

  13. Consider getting a spray bottle. It's a convenient way to keep the soil around the surface of seedlings moist, and it's annoying enough to use that you probably won't accidentally overwater.
    And get a Three Way Meter. Everyone should own one. They're cheap and guessing is not knowing.
     
  14. That plant is about 1/5 of its life age as an auto. Toss it and start over and keep trying or just by photoperiod seeds and be done with it. I dont waste my time with autos unless their freebies for this exact same reason.
