They look huge to me for day 11 man.. that must b some super soil mix :cool:
Lol...you know I just checked to make sure and it appears that I was off by a day..lol oops..not done on purpose I promise. My pics are all date stamped on my personal journal...the time stamp is from the first ak pic 3 days in soil. Aug 16th...its the 24 th now! I promise to keep this super accurate as others like myself use these journals to educate them selves. Thanks for calling me out though!! Lol but I honestly don't think 1 day is really gonna hurt anyone....I blame my wake and bake b4 I updated this morning! Sorry all!

Soo today is day 13 in soil and soo far all is well....made the rookie mistake of starting my girls off in small pots!....after reading on here that it is best to go big right away I asked for help on my intro thread and got it.....I transplanted them very very carefully last night just b4 lights out and this morning as you can see they were awake and happy to see me! Lol super stoked! Thanks to those who helped! Another lesson learned..
 
Everything seems to be running smoothly at this point, JT! 18/6 should be cool, man. Are you monitoring the pH of your soil, and your nute solution? If so, what are the numbers? Tee plants seem to be loving the secret soil!

Thanks GB....my soil is around 6.8 currently and I have not started nutes yet...because I planted in small pots first I was gonna wait till after I tramsplanted...now that I have done that I may give it a few days in the new medium b4 I start.
 
When I was getting those numbers, it eventually led to some problems for me. Nute deficiencies started to become an issue until I was able to get it back down around 6.5ish. Just a heads up, in case you eventually start to see some problems
 
personally I like my soil at 6.8 and my ph perfect nutes fall in between 6.1 - 6.3 so they always get there calcium and mag if using led you need to. your soil is perfect right now that's why there on track. size wise.... in my opinion I wouldn't change nothing yet. them babys are lookin SSSSSWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh ya once u start feeding soil ph will slowly drop
 
My last photosensi grow turned out great other then some heat issues..no nute probs or noticeable ph issues either! But as you know this is my 1st auto grow soo not sure how it will translate. But for now imma go with what I know and cross my fingers..thanks for the encouragement and info! Everyone has been awesome..and who knows..maybe I may let a few ingredients to the S.S.M. out of the bag! Lol...maybe! ;)
 
If you're into mixing your own soils, you might wanna get with Eyes Of Fire, and A4. They take their soils pretty seriously, and get amazing results. Y'all may be able to bounce some ideas around and trade a few secrets!
