I have transplanted the one plant that was in the party cup. I have soaked both plants and will see how it goes. I will post some pics when I return.

up can to their final pot and soak it good the day you leave...it should hold 5-6 days til your return...

I'll second that. Just give a good watering before you leave. Kinda the only thing you can do unless you have a helper, which could be risky. Someone else may have a better idea. Good luck. :thumbs:

Few questions though:
What mix are you using?
What lights?
Ventilation?
Temps and Humidity?

Thanks

OK, so I was away for a week and was worried about how my plants would do without me being around. It turns out that they fared very well. I gave a good soak Sunday before I left and did the same today. Attached are some pics of them. This is day 13 since they sprouted.
I am using Happy Frog and Coco Coir in a 70/30 mix. 3 gallon pot for one and a 8" pot from Wally World for the other.
2 - 120mm exhaust fans with passive intake. I will be picking up a 4" inline fan and carbon filter in a few weeks.

I have a mix of 23W 6500 and 2700 CFL's in a converted media cabinet. Painted white with some areas having Black/White Poly liner.
Temps hover between 77-82 with humidity at around 30

Here are the pics.

Day 26

Ok, now that my three weeks of business travel are over, I'm going to be posting more.
Unfortunately, the transplanted plant did not make it. I came home last weekend and it had passed away :cry:
My other plant seems to be doing well. It does have one brown leaf, but otherwise looks good. Maybe the more experienced growers can chime in and let me know what they think.

Here are some pics from day 26 of my grow.

Hey jmanny. You've got some real pretty growth there my friend. Sorry the other didn't make it, that's highly unfortunate.

Is it literally just that one leaf with the issue?
If so, I would say nute water splash. Like when you fed maybe you splashed a little on that leaf?
If not we can go from there.

A possible cal/mag issue comes into mind too.

 

[jmanny]

Yup just the one leaf, I noticed when I was home last weekend. It most likely could've been nute splash. That was the soaking I did with nutes for the first time.
