Hello there , everything seems fine here mate.. dont worry yourself, i would not think about giving them any water for a while, they will work there magic just be patient. mine at day 4 were pretty much the same.. during my previous go with these i have rather bad heat issues and they were strong ...they will be fine.

aahh good. my heat is 25 - 28 celcius, so heat is fine, i thought the lights may have been a bit too close. its about 4 inches away now, shall i move them up? i have 1 125 watt 2700k and 1 125 watt 6500k. was using 24/0 but today is the first day of 20/4. pots are still heavier than i think they should be, but im not sure how dry to let it go. its been 4 days since i watered lol how will i know if theyre gettin too dry? thank you.

oh and the pots are 11 litres, but i made the mistake of not watering the medium first, so the soil level has gone down about 2 inches lol. learning things already though i spose lol.

Temps are fine , lights , well CFL can be extremely close there is no problem with that. i use HPS so im used to having them further away .. i would have thought for you anything between 4"-8" would be perfectly normal. if your pot is fully saturated then i would not suggest watering for like 10 days or so... just from my experience, when i saturate a pot i never gave any water for a large amount of time... dryness... ok .. well .. if you put your finger in the soil .. if the first couple of inches are kinda bone dry then its fine to give a little something... but this early stage for you it should be fine if you did give a generous watering during germination.


i just read that you didnt water medium first.. lol silly me .. erm .. yea well like you said... you learn things as you go along ! i have faith in you sir ~!! il follow you and any questions you have i am here to help #!

That Seedlings looks fine! :check:

You should keep the soil moist at all times for the seedling stage, and I say moist because you shouldnt be dumping tons of water on them...

I Think your light distance is fine, if it was too close you would see white burns on the leaves.

thanks. will the plant show some signs of lack of water before its too late? pots much lighter now, but it still feels heavier than it should. ive never done it before so im not sure how heavy it should feel, lol. the top is pretty dry but i can feel a slight bit of moisture when i stick my finger in about an inch or so down. i wouldnt say its bone dry, but i wouldnt say its really wet either lol. thanks for the replys. i cant wait till i figure out the watering part its the main thing about growing im unsure of lol.

its very hard for it to be to late, You will see well in advance.

I also worried about water.

So i weighed my pots dry then watered and when gets back to that weight re water
