This is my first grow of 5 exodus cheese autoflowering autofeminized seeds. They are in rapid rooters in a 6 pack grow container. I have a humidity dome and a heat mat with thermostat. I have been keeping them at 75 degrees F. I have a 4 bulb light about 14 inches above the plants with 2 different types of CFL grow bulbs. (the type of bulbs is right from the GWE web site recommendation)
Right now the "grow area" is just a space in my garage where the plants are surrounded by a cardboard shield which allows them to be enclosed...sort of.
I soaked seeds in water for 36 hours until the tap root showed and them put them in damp paper towel for 24 hours until the tap root was showing about a quarter inch or somewhat longer. Then I put the seeds in the rapid rooters. They came up in couple days but them were very long stems, as you can see.
Now the seedlings are about 6 inches tall and have very thin stems and tiny little "real" leaves on the cotyledon. Since I have not raised plants before I don't know what they should look like but I don't think they should be so tall and leggy. I noticed all this about 2 days after they sprouted, they just kept growing like a bean stalk. I have not give them any nutrients yet.
I have been watering with reverse osmosis water. I plan to grow them outdoors in fabric grow containers once the seedlings get established. If they ever do!
Thus my question, now what should I do? I don't know whether let them keep growing or transplant or what. I need your help as you can probably see. I would appreciate any guidance you can give me.
