Monday Update
They haven’t been watered since transplanted to coco. Getting a little Thrive Alive Green in the form of foliar every other day.

my 5 that lived out of 7 that came up out of 12 once again sorry for the shitty pics
Popped mine along with some star dawg guava x Sunshine Daydream
The LG OG x SF are much more vigorous at this point (which is barely 2 weeks in but oh well)
Lights are off now so I figured I’d give y’all a little teaser pic before I take more today.
Lemon Garlic OG x Star:star2:Fighter are those seedlings on the left and the Star:star2:Dawg Guava x Sunshine Daydream on the right (but they’re both in the back of the pic)

I use the Jiffy 7 peat pellets which are 42mm size.
I have been using them for cloning cannabis and starting non-cannabis seeds for more than thirty years now.
Super easy, inexpensive and convenient!
I also usually buy them at Walmart.
BTW, I always remove the mesh/net from the pellet before transplanting.
10 days from seed. 5 days from sprout
11 of original12 sprouted. Very vigorous, I had to put them into the bigger pots since their tap roots were going crazy. Their a little leggy and might have been better off with brighter light from the start. I sprouted two more about 5 days later than these and they are both doing fine.
notes:
93% germinated successfully (13 of 14)
very vigorous, some more than others
media: coco coir
nutes: GH Micro/Bloom 6/9 ratio EC 0.6
light: 30 watts 5000k LED
Temp: 65-75F RH 40-50%
Monday Update # 2.
Babies are growing. One watering only since they sprouted 14 days ago. Coco still looks a little moist on the top, meaning on the bottom the little rock wool core and the coco have more than enough water to go around for the time being.
Here they are.
Some better than others but let’s attribute that to user error and/or genetics. Thanks gang.
My best
My worst
They would all make it to harvest, in the event of being females. I will transplant them in about one week to one gallon pots, then i will decide if to run them all thru flower or to select the two or three more vigorous to finish. If they all get to be flowered the one gallon pots wil have to do. If i choose two or three only then i would transplant into three gallon pots.
My intention is to take them to 12 inches and switch them to flower. I don’t want them to get root bound.
Got a new tent and put my new cloner and seedlings in. These are almost teens though, and they changed overnight from getting more light!
Bottom right is number 1 to 3 going left
Top row left to Right is 4 to 6
Midweek update and observations. The seeds planted in the Jiffy pellets really took off! i won’t know for sure until I can take a picture this Sunday and compare it to the pic from last week, but it looks like they will be 2-3x larger at the same point than the seeds that were germed in rockwool cubes. Jiffy pellets say they have “nutrients” added. I’m not sure what they are exactly, but they seem to have an effect. The seedlings are starting to look like they could use more N so I’ll up the EC of solution when they get fed next time. The stems are a little weak and I had to support a couple of them. I added a small fan to get them moving and try to strengthen them. I might try a silicon additive (haven’t decided yet) Increased light to ~60watts and another one of my Sonoff’s broke so I’m switching them on and off manually (pain in the ass, probably switching to 24h soon) They’re getting between 14-16h a day now.
They look a little hungry don’t they.
In good hands.

That’s partly the white balance on my phone camera, but yeah.
i always run my veg at 24 light, unless i am trying to slow things down a hair. i found it helps keep the seedlings from stretching too much.
Looking good @RickSanchez. I like your support method. I’ll use it in the future, if needed. One possible benefit… may prevent a Cu deficiency lol.
Transplanted all 6 into 4” today
Not much more room but it has coco in the mix so hopefully they’ll take advantage
All the babies transplanted and happy they got some food, about 25% strengh just yesterday after transplanting and today in the afternoon they will get 50% strengh. Coco is tricky to water. Maybe i will use the soaking method instead, i hear it works wonderful.
The ones with NO TAG are Lemon Garlic OG. The ones with a white tag are the other ones.
Whats the purpose of the 25% 50% feed. From the time my seeds are put into soil until they transition to flower they get full stregth veg nutes. Curious more than anything. I think they can take a little more food than we think.
Peace OG
I agree, no need to stunt them when they are most full of piss and vinegar, use this time to feed them well so they will build a strong healthy root system. My cuts run 500-600ppm and a week later they are @ 1100 ppm for all of veg, then the jump to 1800 ppm in flower, feed them girls till you see the tips just starting to turn and then hold that or back off 20% and you should be golden.
Similar in soil, but you can’t let things get away from you.

@Kraven best let the peeps know your running co2 in your grow and your plants can take higher amounts of food …
