Here we go (grow)

Yeah, oldjarhead. #2 is growing the best I've seen, but #1 refuses to grow or change at all. I don't suppose there is anything I can do but wait and hope for the best.
 
All except #2, my other 3 are very slow. The medium that I'm using is the same that my last plants thrived in, but I'm still thinking that I need something better. I kinda want to replant into something better. Do ya'll think it's a good idea? Just frustrated. I know they should be doing better. Not sure why #2 has done so well. I'll take some advice if anybody has some for me!

purpleman it can be genetics a lot of time, a month from now your plants can look all the some for size. Iv got some pictures I'll send you to show what I mean.
What i see that can improve is
More holes for drainage in your cups
Raise them up so air can get underneath and poke holes in the bottoms.
 
Ok, something new that I didn't experience on my first grow. Quite possibly the source of my problems. I noticed what appears to be adult aphids around my seedlings. GWE suggested washing the plants but my girls are too small I think. Also lots of suggestions of products to try. Recommendations please guys!
 
If it is aphids start with a insecticide soap you can make with dish soap.
Soapy water should be reapplied every 2-3 days for 2 weeks.
Stir together 1 quart water, 1 tsp liquid dish soap
If that doesn't get them move to neem oil.
 
Great. I haven't seen them under the leaves but I've seen a few flying around the plants and I blew on the soil and a couple jumped up. Look like little black gnats.
 
Best way to combat gnat is
1) hang a yellow sticky traps by you light for flying adults
2) put a 1/2in layer of perlite on top of your soil.
all pots!
3) let your pots dry out (they like moist soil)
4) water all pots with 1 part H2O2 to 4 parts H20.
To kill the larvae.
 
I will spray them with neem oil, azamax,I also use lady bugs , I got tiered of dragging plants out to spray after the umptine time so I started adding lady bugs problem solved they dont get them all but enough you dont have to worry about them when I stop seeing lady bugs and seeing aphids I add more
 
Man, I am watching them. I think after all the problems I had last time I am "amped up" and trying TOO hard to stay ahead of any problems. This is exactly why some people smoke weed! CHILL THE F@#K OUT! I think they look a little better since I moved the lights away several inches. Didn't notice the bugs this morning, keeping an eye out.
 
Well, I think you guys will be proud of me for figuring some stuff out. The two Blue Widows are in the first picture. The second is of the Berry Bomb hybrid. BWs germinated just over 3 weeks ago. My first mistake was having the CFLs too close, too soon. Then, I started seeing yellowing on lower leaves. I remembered one of you saying that you will know when to give nutrients because they will ask for it. In my previous grow, I started with soil that was too hot. This time I realized that they needed nutes, so I gave them about 1/4 dose a couple days ago, and about 1/2 strength today. Everyone is turning a nice rich green and beginning to thrive! BB #1 is about 2 weeks old and #2 is a few days behind her. Leaves look totally different in shape, but both seem healthy. Let's roll gals!

when I transplant seedling I will feed them voodoo juice and 1/4 strength grow ,except when I'm doing regular seeds then they get VJ and N about 3/4 strength
 
How is your blue widow(s) doing? I couldn't be more please with how the one I'm growing is doing. Topped between the 5th & 5th node. No training and it has remained about 18"-20" tall. Fat, dense buds, sturdy stems and beautiful color, the pistils started turning orange about the 3rd week and have continued.
I ordered another 6 seeds and had to wait for them to come in stock, praying the are the same. Still have one left from my first order and may have to store it until I'm in a position to clone it. For me, knock on wood, this plant has been pretty straight forward to grow.
A pic of the tops, like large eggs, with good stacking down below to midway. Tops are now losing their pointiness and fattening nicely. We're about 45 days in since flip.
Keep us posted on your progress. Mine was a slow grower through veg, but has led the way through flowering. I"m guessing about 8wks total flowering time is going to be pretty darn close, end of the month maybe
all the best

Thanks for checking in with me. Man that looks great! I think the only issues I've had have been self induced. After starting nutes, everybody looks green and healthy. I'm just past 3 weeks since germ, so I've got a long way to go. Noticed a couple teeny little holes in a leaf this morning. Gotta be from the occasional gnat that I see from time to time. Planning on moving to 1 gal pots any day (probably a little soon, but don't want them to get root bound). Can't wait to see them take shape like yours!
