John Doe, your plants look pretty good, considering ... straight steer manure should be too 'hot' for your plants, but fortunately, it breaks down slower than some other manures (chicken, etc) ... if you're not watering too often, (should be only every 2-3 days at that size) ... but maybe steer manure just holds water longer, dont know ... let it dry between waterings, and transplant into potting soil ... dont disturb the roots, and dont try to remove any steer manure from them, etc ... the flowering is triggered by hours of darkness, unless its a self-flowering strain like Lowryder ... :smokin:
