Update: 6 weeks in, the three strong plants are about 1 1/2 feet high... the little one is just under a foot, but I am delighted! I transplanted the plants into the ground, and kept the pvc sheeting up for the first 1 1/2 weeks, but that's off now, and plants are lovely and healthy... Can smell all of them now..


Despite the fact that the max direct sunlight they can get a day is 4 hours, (trees etc...) i feel that they are growing nicely.

Some of the leaves began to be eaten by what I think were caterpillars, and an outbreak of ants but overcame both situations i think!

My question is that, this being my first ever grow, Can I be doing anything to boost the growth of my plants or any other advice would be much appreciated!!!
