Hey dime.

I see 3 plants in 1 planter? You're going to need to transplant those other 2 ASAP. Or do I see 2 different containers inside of that one, but then I ask why put them into a container filled with soil if you already have soil?

The container isnt big enough to support 3 plants roots without them tangling eachother and strangling the plant.

Looking good for fluoro. Im doing one too, about the same wattage too.

the third plant in that container is destined for the great outdoors. I know its a bad idea to use the "buddy system" but I had all the sprouts and not enough containers. Neither did the dollar store. Im hoping that when they show sex here in a few weeks that one of em is a male and I'll just kill it. What I did when I planted that overcrowed pot is Dixie cups with the bottoms cut off to try and seperate them from each other temporarily until they show sex. What can you do. Im hoping for only two females so I can ditch one of the pots and even out my space.

Some more progress....One leaflet is showing yellowing/greenness. Just one leaf blade. I wonder why?
