What does a healthy 2 week old plant look like?

[Garden Knowm]

This plant was started from seed.
A MANGO seed.
It was a bag seed placed in a rockwool cube and sprouted in 1 day.
At 3 days it was put into a larger rockwool cube 2x4x4.
At 5 days, it was put in soil


The soil is MIRACLE GROW. LOL.
The room stays at about 70 degrees.
I think it is a 1 gallon container.

It is 14 days old 4.5 inches tall.
The 5th node is just forming.


It has 3 cfl' directly on top of it. 2(150 watt) and 1(200watt) CFL.

There are 5 additional CFL's within 6 inches of the plant

Notice how close the cfl's are to the plant.

The container was watered twice thouroughly..
1 gallon of water each time.
No FERTS
PH level... 8.0 (not the correct PH- correct PH would be 6.8)

Letme know if you would like to see more.

love

Your plants look 100% healthy. Though I heard some bad stuff about miracle-gro I dont know how much of it is true but yeah..I like what I see so far .

I often wonder where those plants w/soil sitting at 4.0 or 8.0 are getting their nutrients from,,when they look so Healthy and vigorous.When everything you read tells you otherwise?? How much better would they really look if the soil was at 6.8??

If you used miracle-grow there are ferts in there,they will sometimes last up to 2 mos, you should wait three months after use of miracle grow to eat or smoke,Just a sugestion..... use something organic w/water.and the water is also ph balanced, when the time comes..

yes toni..
absolutley
the point of the grow is to show how easy it is to grow..
MG is definitley not the choice of soil and actually many people have had problems with it on this site..

This is an experiment for newbies to see
Especially people who start from seed
So many people post pics of their seedlings at two weeks and they are 1/5 the size of this monster and 3 inches taller..

So I came across this seed and thought I'd show a healthy BUGGER..

: )

PH 8 water to show that with MG SOIL.. you can just add water

The water comes out of the tap here at 242 ppm.
And must be filtered/RO to use in Aeroponic sytems. But it will be fine for a soil grow.

cheers!

NICE!
you started from clones?

The plant above is from seed and grown under CFL...

Wait till you see them at 3 weeks!!

love : )

ouch I have same problom in my grow room,but they havent started feeding on my plants yet,thank god.I really keep the floor clean every day i sweep or vacume or mop it,That helps w/bugs as well,as those pesky mice I set mouse traps every night and catch them every night,its a never ending battle.I just dont want anything nonorganic in my grow room. I heard once that x-lax works really well,but not if you have alot of them,That would not be a pretty site to walk into,10 mice who have shit them selfs to death in your grow room,yucky,anyone else have some good advice??? By the way that plant is off the hook for her age??Keep us updated?
