Oh yeah! ooops,... this is day 12 for all but 3,... As you can see, those 3 are in a different soil. I ran out of 
's light warrior, and as excellent as it is, at $22/1cf, forget more unless I see otherwise,... The shop I get my soil at has no idea why it's so spendy either; they sell ocean forest for $12 a bag, so.... 
I was recommended Vital Earth potting soil instead; it's heavier, slightly 'hotter' than LW, but has myco's and other great stuff in as well. I felt it was maybe too heavy, so I lightened it up with about 20% of the soil blend I use with my carnivorous plants (sphagnum peat, sand, perlite). So, we'll see how these 3 late starters do in comparison. I plan to make the finish soil a blend of ocean forest and VE,... Meanwhile, I keep cheering on the nice warm sun! :smoke:

Okay,... here we are at 2 1/2 weeks; nearly all have at least 1 well developed set of 3-pointers, a few have 2, and the B.Lee's have a unusual mix of being among the largest in size, but are just starting their first 3-pointers! The late germ'ing plants are all runts, but Star ryder and MI5 look like they might still turn out some size ; P.Kush and HBD are lookin' iffy,.. fortunately their duplicates are fine! Growth rates are picking up, and with nicer weather on the way, I hope to see this increase (been a bit cool and way windy the last 4 days, dammit).... Meanwhile, tic-toc, tic-toc,....I'm hoping that they'll have 5-6 nodes formed before they start to sex, regardless of 'age', but from what I see so far that will be a very close race in the next 2-3 weeks...

Looking good bro! Just make sure you let them dry out real good before watering again. Especially when you are watering the ones with the OF and VE... as they have nutes in the soil already and you don't wanna burn them early on. with those soil mixes I'd wait til week 3 or 4 to start feeding... :thumbs:

Thanks y'all! Yeah, Reb', I'm having to watch them closely outside, on windy days especially,... 's Light warrior (not ocean forest yet, mate, you guys said it's too hot straight out the bag; for final potting I'll use it w/VE) is suuuuper light, and dries pretty quickly; the VE has more 'clay' in it,... heavier, so it holds water better. ..... I didn't like the lighter green color on some of the leaves, so I've been dosing it with that killer Green-all Iron + Mn/CU/Zn chelates, and over the last couple days, they're improving,.... maybe pH 7 isn't so okay after all,... I'm still trying to tweak it down with RO water+ WD vinegar+superthrive, and they just got their first very dilute taste of my fert' mix using the 20-10-20 urea free orchid food (right now N), and the Grow-Power AP food 4-8-2+ 2% humic acids! (this product I've used on house plant/landscaping with excellent results) + a wee taste of molasses too, just to boost up those soil microbes a bit, and get everybody queued up well for the mad dash to sexing!! really nice weather is starting, so I'm stoked to the T for watching this upcoming growth burst! :booya: Yaaah- boi!!
