I have been growing an unknown strain from a seed that I received from a friend. I originally thought I was doing great, watering every day and seeing new growth and adding a tiny bit of nutes with Miracle-Gro. Until I started researching more, and got worried. Maybe I'm overthinking. Here's the situation
Obviously I am not an expert grower, this is my second time (first time the seedling stretched and I didn't care enough to try to fix it so I culled it), but I'm trying to do better this time. I forgot to mention I do this in my bedroom, but do not turn on the light (I took the lighbulb out just in case)
Seedling is 17 days old from germination, with a 75w "blurple" light ~15-17in above the top leaves set on a 18/6 light schedule.
Humidity is hard to control for me, but I try to keep it around 60%, it sometimes gets to around 40% which I try to fix immediately. Temperature is easier to control, but during the night it can get to the 60s (F) which is when I turn on a heater. Daytime can get up to 80F which is when I turn on the AC fan (I also have a regular fan running constantly, parallel to the plant, but not facing it) I've watered it everyday until today, which is the day after I transplanted it to a bigger pot (soil on top is still a little damp).
I can't test the pH of the water I'm giving it until tomorrow (Saturday the 12th), but so far I've been using Clover Valley spring water. Maybe I should mention this, but I've never experienced any runoff.
Two of the attached pictures show the plant after I took a picture of it in total darkness (side and top-down) with my flash on and the other is my setup as of right now.
Any brown specs are dirt that I couldn't get off after transplanting.
