Baby clones look good this morning!
 
Added humidifier. Set to 60%

I wish I could do a Wifi controller for temp and humidity but don't want to spend the money. Would literally be cheaper to buy a Wyze fixed camera pointed at the display of a temp/humidity controller.
 
Byke, how did you know my plant was fucked? After a night in the main light and a dark period it's totally drooping. Was it just over watering?

Seems like I may have wasted a month. It seemed totally healthy when I transplanted it.
 
The skinny stem. I've done it too. It's a bummer because the plant seems to otherwise be doing fairly well and you think you can save it, but then they go kaput.
 
Gotta take it easy on the watering. When they're super tiny from a seed you just water the little area around the stem for a bit, then slowly expand that area as they get bigger. It's really surprising how dry you can let them get. I honestly think you could let them get so dry before each watering that they're starting to wilt, and probably not hurt your yield at the end. I had some in 20g pots that were wilting everyday and they still yielded great. Had some others that were maybe 8" tall and I forgot to put the exhaust fan on a timer at night and it was 130 degrees in there the next morning with all of them totally roached out, but none died and aside from being set back a little, they still yielded great. Anyway, I'm much more scared of overwatering than under, because they're really tough in that direction.

Your BARF mailbox is full... Should I SMS you for a question?
 
You can text me anytime, especially if there's a dick pic! I just cleared some out.
 
Baby clones survived my being away. :banana.

I have some seeds to germinate.
 
Ok here we go again. It's been 29 days since the sprout of Gelat OG take #2. This time I germinated two and one didn't make it and this some seems fine. I have never watered more than using a sprayer to moisten the top layer of soil so if I've over watered it, it's from a serious lack of comprehension on my part. :)

29 days under a single LED bulb. Will switch on the main lights after transplant.

I've got a compost tea with URB, Seaweed extract and molasses with a bag of compost and worm castings going overnight. If this fails I'm going back to 6 plants with coco coir/perlite
 
The plant seems to be thriving in the new environment. Temps are a bit of an issue. I connected a really long laundry conduit to a 4" inline fan to suck cool air in from outside but the tent is venting the hot air just into the garage. Tonight a friend is coming over to install the tent riser to make it taller so I'm hoping this will help with temps since the light will be further from the plant and I'll also re-arrange the venting for optimal input-output.
 
Wow four hands are way better than 2. So mounted the filter as high and back as possible with a top vent to hose. Low intake of cool air. Now a foot taller.
