New Grower First (hopefully not of many!) problems

Hey dude! Yeah 28 sounds much better, I fear your plants would have not lasted very long at all at +45! Good score on those other two as well, thats definately a huge plus for autoflowers that this sort of thing can happen, if they were photos you would need to have a whole other set up.

How do they look? Do you have any photographs of them?
:Sharing One:
 
Dreadflow, am just on my way out so will take some pics when I'm back to show you.
definitely a score on the new 2, couldn't believe my luck!
It's very convenient that I can have both in the same set up. Definitely going to stick with autos so I can't always have a couple begging while a couple flower
 
A quick update just for the sake of documenting this.
yesterday I watered the plants and fed them with 1/4 the amount on the chart for original grow.
my seedlings are a scattered bunch, one developing quite fast with lots of nice dark leaves forming. The others are coming along, just not as quick.
as for the auto purples given to me, they were originally growing on a windowsill. Despite having only 3 sets of true leaves they are quite tall and gangly and already flowering! Can't see them producing much.
will hopefully get a pic up tomorrow after the dreaded daily grind!
 
Finally a photo update!
Since last post nothing has changed other than discovering my timer doesn't work so they've been on 24/0. Annoying.
so from the photo you'll see I have 1 growing quite well, 2 not so bad and 1 runt. All other than the good one have yellowing leaves. Anyone know what that could be? My ph is good, don't think I over fed them. It's a little hot in there at around 32-33, could that be the cause?

I think I know ur problem... it says them are tomato plants... ha ha ha... just givin ya shit..you say ph is good and u fed 1/4 strength on the 26th. give em another 24-36 hrs and see if they look any better. whats the humidity? if there real hot and low humid they will mostly drink up the water and not the nutes. get it to bout 45-55% at least. also take a real good look for bugs, gnats,mites,thrips,.
 
They are funny looking tomato plants, maybe there was something else in the packet ha ha
not sure of the humidity I don't have a metre, will be upgrading this weekend.
havent seen any bugs, they're normally in a little set up I have in an out building so hopefully that should keep the bugs out
 
A quick update for Saturday morning.
since the last pic my little darlings have started upward growth. They're also starting to spread leafs at quite a rate.
i presume this is the start of vegetation?
regarding the humidity issue, have put a bowl of water in there to try and raise it a bit. Will try and get to my hydro shop today to get metre.
 
Today I repotted my seedlings. Not sure what volume pots they are, just standard black pots with the squared tops. Potted them into plagron light mix.
also got a digital hygrometer/thermometer and am reading 26.5 celcius and only 35% humidity.
 
Time for a photo update as things have progressed somewhat from the last picture.
the plants are all enjoying their new pots. They've grown so much in the past few days!
the closest plant in the picture has preflowering already, so at least 1 female so far. The yellowing problem seems to be sorted, temp is from 24-28 and humidity 35-55%.

the dad looking plant in the background is one of the purples given to me. Have no idea what their problem is. Have left them in the small pots in which they were given to me. Didn't want to waste resources on plants which I can't see giving me much in return.
