Here are a couple more pictures. The first one is of a popcorn bud growing underneath the canopy by about 4 inches.

The second and third pictures are of my new mother to be; A F1 cross of NL5 x Haze.

How do they look? Is there anything painfully obvious I am doing wrong?

EDIT: The mother is planted with this coco fiber mix that has "tons of goodies in it" according to my local hydro guy.

From what I can tell it has some peat moss and white foamy rocks. I put about 2 inches of hydroton on the bottom of the pot, then filled up the pot, then put about 1-2 inches of hydroton on the top of the soil.

For watering, I watered about 2 gallons through it when the soil was first put into the pot. Then about 2 days later I watered it until there was some runoff from all the holes.

That brings us to today; am I doing it right? Lol I am completely lost with soil growing.

Thanks for the tips!
