    Guest follow this and don't manhandle and you should be fine. also give a light(!) water (relative to plant/pot size) first to help soil hang together upon moving....

    Did you know that transplanting your cannabis at just the right time will actually make your plants to grow faster? Luckily transplanting is easy with a little planning, and only take a few minutes!

      also white vinegar can also be used to pH down if you're in need of a "readily available anywhere/right now!!" option....

        I went and got the plant except I came home with 2. I put one in the tent and am hoping it warms up soon so I can put the other one outside. Here is a picture of each one. I was told they are both females. Figured I didn't have enough room for both in the tent.

          Very nice plant do u notice how long the stem is? The guy before his lights where way to far away! I personaly would put my light 12inchs above this plant and see how it does if leaves curl down or the bend or do anything weird move ur light higher nut at this stage u want ur light close so u dnt strech ur plant anymore.

        I can't get it to upload the other images

          As seedling u should have enough room till about 4-6 weeks from now they will be to big.

            With some leds like my 600w in seedlings I even put my light as close as 6inchs for a couple weeks but try 12inchs to start and if u notice them stretching instead of the stem getting thicker then lower ur light

              Can't really tell how old they are.

                I litterly have a 50 true watt led 5inchs above this plant and it's growing great after I broke the stem 2 weeks ago

                  They were droopy. I never did lower my light. 18" right? I did put the light on. Figured I would run it until 11. Then back on at 5 tomorrow morning for 18 hrs.

                    That sounds great but I'd lower it to 12 being that there to streched already it seems what's the length of ur stem to the leaves? The distance from soil to ur 1st set of true leaves should be no more than 3inchs if it is its streching to much and wouldn't be able to suport the leaves soon to be growing. Lowering the light so the plant dosnt focus on getting taller to get the light it needs.

                      The drooping can be caused by almost anything ( not enough/ to much liquid, transplanting, moveing houses, enviromental issues like co2 light wind ect) the plant seems to be fine tho prob just stress from moveing. She will go back to normal prob by the morning.

                        Did u transplant her the soil looks brand new. Looks good on the perlight soil mixture did u add any extra? I also have that same ph meter (this is not good for testing water and also don't leave it in the soil the points get corroded and puts the scale outa wack and is very hard to re calibrate from the inside I broke 2scales doing this.)

                          There's tape 1.5inchs from the points because that's how far u wanna test for moisture to know when to add liquid to ur plants. Ph take from the whole probe. ( I CANT STRESS IT ENOUGH DNT LEAVE THIS SCALE IN THE SOIL, DO UR TEST AND TAKE IT OUT!!!!) I learnt this the hard way.

                            When I feed/ water my plants the scale go's from 8-10 and I wait till it go's to 3 to water again.

                              That container in my pot is added co2 the cheap way hot 30ml HOT water 1/4cup sugar and 1 tblsp of any kind of yeast. This creats cheap co2 for 7-9 days. If u deside to do this boil the water add sugar mix till desolved then add yeast and stir and then after about an hour the yeast breaks down the sugar into co2. I put this into a one of my wife's tuber ware contaires with a hole in the top and I also do the same this in my grow room with a biger container with 1000ml water and I dnt use a lid

                                I have a container that's 8 ounces or approximately 240ml. Do I need to increase the mixture ratios for a larger amount of water?

                                I made a post about this on the next page lol long story short the water amount doesn't really matter as long as it's liquid the yeast breaks down the sugar to co2 gas the amount of sugar will just last u longer and for ur tent 1table spoon of yeast is perfect
