Relatively new grower
Hello Everyone,
This may be long. On 2/16/20 I planted 3 Fastbuds Blue Dream'matic plants and they grew so slowly that, on 3/1/20 I planted 3 additional plants. The new three were 2 Northern Lights autos by Seedsman and a Fastbuds Green Crack.
So for a bit of cannabis family history. Grew up weed-less but not necessarily anti. Tried once when I was 17 and not again until 37. Wife found it for medical uses and has a card. I use recreationally. Either way it was getting too expensive.
Because of hearing the phrase "it's practically impossible to overwater in coco" I decided that would be my first medium. I messed up big time on the Blue Dream'matic by not using cal/mg at all in the beginning. They started showing it but that cleared up.
I went from "sprouts in final 3 gallon pots" to "sprouts in small biodegradable bags then to final 3 gallon" with one of them of them going to a 1 gallon first as I waited for more 3 gallon bags to arrive. Feeding with Megacrop and Bud Explosion for the older ones.
Currently I am running lights on 24 hours due to humidity. If I go lights out, it skyrockets (70%+). If I run a full size dehumidifier, my house can't seem to handle it (house electrical issue, not weed growing issue). I bought a mini dehumidifier and it's in there but I'm not sure how effective it is. With at least 2 plants in full on bud stacking mode, I don't want humidity to get too high.

Congrats on your progress so far and you guys will soon be enjoying the fruits of your first harvest! Many new growers, (myself included), get impatient when they don't see enough growth early on. It takes a while to get use to the ideal that the roots are growing more than the leaves during the seedling phase. Your girls look a little on the light green side in your pics which may indicate they need more feed, but that could be your camera/lighting ect. More importantly is your electric situation! If the dehum was causing a breaker to flip because there was too big of a load on the circuit, (like lights and fans), then I would recommend buying a heavy duty extension cord and running it from another plug not on the same circuit. But if it's something else ... be very very careful!!! The worst thing for a grower besides the cops is a fire, 
which will soon bring the cops. If you know an electrician you can trust, have them take a look see. Also, have them replace the breaker with a larger one and you won't need that extension cord! Just my 2 cents and good luck on the rest of your grow!
