I was surprised at how sturdy they are, they look so fragile. I'm no roots expert but they don't look rotted they seem healthy. I don't get it I've grown too many plants to rember, and never had issues with seedlings once they broke thu the soil. I just have to keep telling myself they are only 16 days old. I watered them at 6 this morning and the soil was wet but not saturated.

Think it's time for a bigger container ? I'd like to go into 1 gal containers then into the 8's. But I don't have the strength to handle the 1 gal's with plants in em. so if I transplant it will have to be rite into the 8 gallon containers
Roots look good. Starting to get root bound though. Time to get in a bigger pot. Do you measure how much you water, or just water? Soil looks like it holds a lot of moisture. You could definitely benefit from some perlite, sand, coco, anything to give it a bit of space to breath
That's what I'd do then. I try to only go for 1 repot, less stress for plant, and less work for me.

Your rite on OG, it'll have to wait a day or 2 the weather is going to warm up into the 50's by Friday and it'll be less stress on them. the big containers are on floor level and the way my heating system is the floor is about 20 degrees colder than 6' off the floor where the thermostat is. Gotta go finish that joint

When they were in the small cups I would give em 2 tablespoon when they felt light. my brain issues make it hard to judge weight correctly. The soil is the Cost of Maine Stonington blend and it does hold a lot of moisture, my last grow I had my daughter order me some perlite but all she could get was the shite with Miracle gror nutes in it. It ruined my last grow. and their is no money in the budget for this grow, so like the coach always said "it is what it is"
I find leaves touching the soil can get necrosis.Welp, I knew this first 6 weeks would be a struggle. I have no resources to buy anything so I'm just going to have to keep my fingers crossed. they felt very lite this morning so I gave them a little drink. I'd like to start trimming off the lower leaves that are turning yellow, maybe tomorrow if they perk up after a drink.
Hope your doing well.
Stay safe

Girls seem ok, hope they like their new containers. Soil temps were 68 degrees at lights on. They still seem droopy, when I checked on em before lights out they seemed a bit perkier. I guess time will tell

The girls look good, one seems to be growing faster than the other. The one lagging is the one that started with the 3 finger leaves. But it's still early

Welp, the girls seem to have gotten a bit taller since this morning. I'm not sure if they need watering or not. I only lightly watered at transplant.

Girls still going good. have to figure out my water situation. My tap water is really good ,I got one of those yearly water reports and I'm in the process of decoding it... Lot's of numbers an ppm's. But anyhoo I know it has chlorimne in it, an I've done some research an the simple solution is ascorbic acid, vitamin C. the issue is the amount? A gallon at a time is about all I can handle. Welp off to the fourm to get answers. Today's pics
