HELP! Can these lady’s survive?

[Airies11]

Brand new to the GWE Community and hoping to learn from fellow members experiences. These mystery seed seedlings are roughly 3-4wks old, spring started 3 days ago here in Victoria/Australia - my concerns are , I have no artificial lights to place them under - “Are they looking healthy enough to survive another couple weeks for the sun to catch up? (Pics provided)

They are already stretching a bit for light. I feel like they may be a little young for much direct sunlight right now but if you can get them as much indirect sunlight as you can they should do well. How many hours of daylight are there currently down under? If you can get them at least 14 hours a day you should be fine. If necessary even a desk lamp for a couple hours will work after sundown. Once you have around 3 nodes and a small canopy they should be good for direct sun if it's not too brutally hot. Probably a good idea to put them in their final container a few days before subjecting them to a lot of sun. Enjoy your grow.

If you have somewhere outside to place them that will allow them to get 2-4hrs of direct sunlight (early in the day when it’s not so powerful) then indirect sunlight the remainder of the day they’ll be fine outside. Every couple days move them so they’ll get a little more sun. Within 2wks they’ll be able to take it all day. They’re stretching now bc they want more light, when you transplant them make sure you bury those long skinny stems upto the bottom leaves and they’ll be fine.

Yep all the above i would do. Get some perilite to mix into that soil prior to transplanting. Don't use alot of raw poo will burn. These are not sexed so that's going to take a couple months to find out male or female ? Just treat them lightly till they get roots support the stalk with a stick. Good Luck

Thank you so kindly for ur advice and speedy response, you have put my mind at much ease. I have already purchased the perlite, larger pots and bits and pieces, and are planning to repot them on the weekend. I guess we don’t expect too much from these babies, as they were found just recently in a little bag I had put away years ago, and I have no recollection of the source. However, that being said, if one is willing to take the risk of growing a couple of outdoor plants for personal use, then one should at least try to do their best and get the best results they can. The idea is mainly to learn and practice before spending any real money on the entire process. Thanks again ‘happy days to you!’
