So here's middle of day 20 lights on, with a germination lag of 1-5 days. The bottom row is low and slower because I don't always pack my soil and the seeds migrated to the bottom.

The second picture is something that was sent to a buddy that quit growing for themself and sent them back. Some didn't want to pop at all and a few others were fussy and came out mangled or lacking green cots.Went ahead and nursed them and this little one hand no visible green just off white tan to yellow and two weeks of spreading the cotyledons and spraying we have some green emerging :) what a pain.

So seeds just got a fulvic silica foliar @ 1 ml : 30 oz RO, whenever I looked at them. The first sets of leaves are wonky because the humidity was not on point and was over transpiring for the first week. Then I starved a few, some not watering thoroughly enough.

So we're off with a limp but going none the less. 8- 7 gal bags will fit the two tables.Then any other girls will be in 3 gal along the wall.

What are these blue and green trays called? Or how do I find them lol... I am trying to find trays that fit my tents so I can do a SOG, and these look like they would be perfect to be able to fit more plants. Seems individual drip trays take too much extra space ✌️

Yeah, they look pretty solid! 👌
That is how I am, see something that can be better use than the intended use. I guess 🤔 it was actually intended for that use, to catch liquid 😂
But I will have to look online! Thanks 👍

Forgive me if I missed it, but are these FEM. Or you doing a pheno hunt? Yeah some of my seedlings I just sprouted were doing the thing like your second pic here. I hadn't set up my tent and light and just had them on my desk under a LED desk light so they broke soil, but we're mad at me 😂
Most just had cotyledons, no green, turning white and it's been 2-3 weeks so last night I decided to pluck those ones and just keep the good ones. Funny thing is there was about 9-11 like that same size as in your 2nd picture, and when I uprooted them and went to walk them to them garbage I got a "stem rub" scent lol 🤣 🤣
These little tiny seedlings smelled like some top shelf bud and wouldn't even give me a leaf set..

No worries :)
Nope not fem, just some head stash. I just grow reg seed so shoot for twice what can fit in here and half will be boys or real close.

Oh wowzers, what a bummer they didnt work out :(

So this is how I manage my plants, one mainline.

First I plant at a slight angle twoards the wind, then just a loose bowline and a wrap on the handle. I move the bowline out past the next node every few days or after the tops turn up again, keeping a mostly even canopy.
