It is SOOOO funny you said that because Liv is EXACTLY what I was considering (both because of the strain and because I adore Liv Tyler!)

Cheap LED strings and florescent tubes are sometimes easiest on seedlings. They don't need much light intensity. Just enough light to wake up and see the New Day. They look great!Girls are all looking better today. Every one is in a different stage of recovery and growth since finally figuring out the proper dim and distance on the LED. For all of you that didn't know, all of my previous seedlings have been under 6-60W full spectrum bulbs-this is my first foray into the seedling stage using LED lights.
Hey I think a 7/7 germ rate was pretty good, even though I don't think I've ever not germinated one...seedlings are not in trouble anymore and I've learned a lot this go round with my new equipment. I'm happy with that. I'll be a better seedling Mama next round now that I have the hang of this new set up...
Anyway...here we are this morning.
Goldie is trying to push her teeniest little second leaves out, I can actually see the bump without squinting today (lol)
Onyx first set has now fully recovered
J.H. Spidey and her curling first trues have been making their way back up since the transition
Limelight is the slowest to recover..I don't know if we will be saving her first set or just focusing on her healthy seconds coming in
Both Gelatos, Vanilla and Sprinkles made a complete 180 already.
Coloring is returning to "not burnt by Mama" and they are all on their way to a full recovery
And group shot has a +1 with Gigi, sticking around for the photo opp.
Happy rainy Friday from NJ. Happy growing!

Yes she was, God bless her. So beautiful, too what a personality
I've heard this now...wish someone would have spoken up before
It's ok though, I figured it out (I think)
Thank you, they are definitely in better hands now that I got this situation squared away and they made it through the early transplanting...
This is what I use to germinate and get the seedlings going.

Thanks Nev. I usually use 6-60W full spectrum bulbs...trying to figure the LED system out cause I know it works....at least I learned that 25% is max for my seedling needs...I don't even want to admit it, but they were up to 75....idk what I was thinking...I learned...it's all goodThis is what I use to germinate and get the seedlings going.

Yeah, you have the loving hand for raising excellent 420. Probably the Earth Mother in you. I took cuttings 3 days ago just before starting flowering and put them in my clear plastic seedling tent. I ran a reptile humidifier hose into the tent and played with the humidity a bit and keeping them at about 75 deg F under cheap string LED lights and 65%-75% RH. All seem healthy, perked-up and raising their little heads and facing the lights. I hope to see roots poking out the bottom in a day or two more. I had never had good luck cloning before. Usually they would have been in wilted death by now. Fingers crossed. Need to post some pics in my journal again soon...add that to my list of "to-do's". Fall aways seems like a time when things-to-do pile up...guess I been watching too much football on the tube. LOL!Yes she was, God bless her. So beautiful, too what a personality

Don't fret - family and 420 stress relief first - football and 420 garden work second - housework last. A fruitful priority order to live by.
I really don't have the ideal setup for the clone cuttings and seedlings currently. The plastic tent has to go. I had ordered another 2 X 4 X 5 grow tent to replace it. When that tent had arrived it was missing one corner part and had to be returned (of course I did not inventory the parts before trying to assemble it - head slap!). Got the replacement tent yesterday and it needs assembly.
I was proactive and had taken down my plastic tent before assembling the missing part tent. Since I timed it so, the clones needed to be taken when I started the flowering cycle. Therefore, I had to re-assemble the plastic tent for the clones cuttings so I just crapped it together and went with the result. Now I need to assemble the replacement tent, disassemble the plastic tent and transfer the clone cuttings to the new 2 X 4 X 5. I am waiting a couple more days for the cloned cuttings to take before transferring - delicate babies.
Three steps forward, two steps back.

Thank you, I do my best balancing...love it here though...
Well gosh Charlie, talk about having to work backwards..at least there is an end in sight??!! I assume this is this weekends plan?
And absolutely they are fragile little things...so much wonder in something so small...pretty amazing...hope that you get everything the way you want it and the clones work their magic the next few days!!

Thank you very much for your thoughtful and kind words. I am working hard to succeed. Being a novice, I have much to do each day. I need to find a "cleaner" rhythm of tasks. Increased repetition helps me optimize timing and tasks. Plus, here at the 420 site I learn more and more each day.

Charlie, I grew once 10 years ago, 1 round... I just started again in June....I am LEARNING TOO!!!
Honestly wish I knew more of the science behind it to offer more help. I am a grower. I used to think my talents ended academically and athletically. That was until I started gardening. Then a few months ago, TK offered to get me some seeds so I could start growing some bud. I jumped at the thought. I started under a table. Got a tent. Then another. Then another. Got a light Then 3 more than 3 more. Then sprung for the LED then another. Here I am now with these glorious tents, set ups from these wonderful sponsors and my children. Just from love, attention, a green thumb and all of this AMAZING information here at
. Not to mention the AMAZING people here!!! I left social media. Left my initial preconceptions and trepidations about growing again behind me and here we are now, talking together on the best site known to all things cannabis. Friends without even being friends. Friends without another agenda, other than to help each other become better growers.Finding the balance you seek, takes time and patience but all of the tools are right here in front of us, plus a whole lot of support!! I'm behind you Charlie, we are all behind each other rooting!
Krissi1982, Thanks for the invite, never saw it come through. I found may way here and will catch up. I see you have some other links to check out as well. What a great selection of strains to test drive. Good luck with this grow.

No worries @cr8grow you got here at a good time. I almost fried the seedlings figuring out how to use LEDs w dimmers on them instead of my standard grow bulbs...tagged you in the Amazon journal...that one is pretty colorful right now...happy to see you bud!

Well update time!
I feel terrible for putting Limelight through this!! She is fighting and I think will be fine but at this point, I'm praying for her...just damn...how did I not catch this earlier and realize what I was doing...
Goldie was small and slow to start and then I stunted her some more, curling her poor little teeny leaves...those seconds are slowly but surely coming through though...this my Bubs of this round-half of it is my fault so I have to do her even better than I did with Bubs
Onyx and her strong Sirius Black genes fought through that burnt stage hard and is doing very well
J.H. Spidey is also recovering well, her first were completely under her, I had burnt them up good...ugh makes me sad
The Gelato girls are just perfect...minus the extreme ends being a little burnt also...duuuh Krissi!!!
That's all for now guys and gals! Happy growing this Saturday!

Not a bad set back at all. They’re going to get kicking and flourish now that the path is set straight.
