Well I'm not going to give up on a grow haha! I need weed!

BTW just a quick update! 6 out of the 10 new planted seeds sprouted today and are already growing their first set of leaves!
gonna update with pics when they will be less camera shy!

you're welcome man, some day soon it'll be you're turn, lol

OK guys so only 1 sprout out of 3 left from the first start(which is day 13 now)... the baby is growing fine, started some LST for practice on it today tho I dunno if the results will be useful at this stage of growth (this is a question)

The other seeds I planted sprouted at a rate of 7/10. the 7 fastest were kept and the last three were sent to sprout outside in my garden.
watered them today with some water and they are looking good

alright enough of the bullcrap haha here are some pictures:

pic1 - dedicated to the 3 sprouts that are going growin outside :rastabanna:
pic2 - my green garden is filling with sprouts :rastasmoke::jointsmile:
pic3 - babies on the right
pic4 - babies on the left
pic5 - their big sister LSTed for the first time today

guys I need some comments about my LST. am doing it right? is it any use doing it at this stage?

I'm not too aware about LST... This seems allright, I'm just not too sure if they are too young or not for this, hope someone with experience on the subject pass by. The log is starting really nicelly, I'll follow up and try to help you next time.

Thanks for the reply man
hmm I red somewhere that you can start LST when the plant is like 1.5-2 weeks old(which it is) so I decided to try it myself. like use this big guy for practice before I start the real thing on the other guys which I must say are growin in a pretty good rate!

lol, yeah, they cover LST pretty definitively, way better than any advice i could give you

too young for LST, wait a couple weeks

You typically want to wait to LST till there are 4-5 nodes present...so def. too early to start......instead of LST at this young stage, get a small fan to constantly blow air over them; that will thicken up the stems.

mm I'm not sure yet if I want to have a fan in there moving air around
I wast think more of a passive pressure with an exhaust fans at the top and an intake fan/hole at the bottom.
That will give me much lower temps then putting in a fan to just move the hot air around.
Temps are the most important factor of micro grows I guess

My point in this LST is to practice so Ill be ready when the other guys are big enough.
Ill probably let the other sprouts grow till I can top them and then LST them couple days after topping for the first time.
