New Grower 1st attempt feminized autos in grow tent

[autozone]

Nirvana feminized seeds, 2 bublicious, 2 blue mystic, and 2 short riders. Germinated paper towel method covered dish and placed on top of DTV receiver, 36 hrs later all ready and sowed directly in roots organic soil. After 4 days I noticed one seedling's growth not keeping up with the other five, the root had curled and started growing straight up, since it had already lost precious grow time I decided to germinate another seed and replace.
Using HTG small grow tent 22x36x64, 400w hps 55,000 lumens with reflector, ballast is outside of tent. Light cycle is 24/0 and light is 12" above plants. Using 6" exhaust fan (exhausts in attic) with passive ventilation. No problems controlling temps, range is between 75 and 82 degrees, humidity between 30 and 32%. I have year round access to lake water that is run through 2 backflushing carbon filter tanks, 1 sediment filter and 2 uv lights, this water is used as drinking water for camps, ph is a constant 7.2. As of today 5 plants are 15 days old and 1 plant is 6 days old. I have not added any nutes. I have attached a photo of my plants any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

looks good autozone, I've just started a blue mystic myself... still younger than yours though. It sounds like you've got things pretty set, and that water sounds deluxe. out of curiosity, when are you planning on your first feed? any lst?

I am so glad to be here Musturd, Thankyou! I will definetly check out your 1st grow. I am so facinated with autos and with finally having the opportunity to grow indoors now that we have two unoccupied bedrooms (kids finally married and off on their own). Thanks again for the warm welcome and I will keep you updated.

What am I gonna do once I have kids? I guess set up a REALLY good friend and contrigbute and help with grow and products so I can enjoy the plants and the after math as well.

OH! AND your plants look very happy to be a part of your family!

Thanks cunningstunts! I don't plan to lst, I am also hesitant about feeding nutes, I'm hoping the roots organic soil will take me through the whole grow. I read a thread on this site by Muddy stating nutes may not be needed if a good quality organic soil is used. I am just gonna keep a close eye and if I start to see any type of deficiency with my plants I'll ask one of the experts on this site what I should do. So far I have relied on information provide by Muddy and so far so good!

Thanks gearbear2, sounds like you have a plan! It's a little nerve racking having this new extended family, hoping they like it here as much as I enjoy caring for them.
