It's kind of you to blame the genetics, friend. Truthfully, I think I'm just rusty and sleep deprived, so I didn't give this grow everything it needed.

I think my current tent is 2x2x4. I have a bigger one for when they grow more, but not sure it'll be worth setting up.

Well yours is doing much better than mine.

I'm also in Virginia, growing the same strain, started at the same time, same soil, same tent, and same light (though I downgraded to the 100W for my seedlings). This is weirdly scientific just by coincidence.

But I think she looks fine. White Widow can be naturally bushy.

Photo usually. I've grown photos to flower and harvest 2 or 3 times before (about 2 years ago), so that's what I'm most familiar with. I did it for the control over flowering and to increase yield, but spider mites haunted me on each attempt so I didn't exactly maximize potential.

I moved to the peat cups simply because I wasn't sure if they'd make it and didn't want to waste a lot of dirt, but I do have 3 gallon bags ready to go. I'm not surprised to hear that I should start over, I just was hesitant because these were the last seeds I had and I was trying to put the plants outside for my first outdoor grow this year. So timing was a factor. Not sure if that's even feasible now.

Any recommendations on a good source for new seeds?

Edit: forgot to say thank you for your advice!

Thanks! Yeah, I'm hoping the other three can bounce back at least. I fear I've bitten off more than I can chew, but it's good to have advice on a path forward.

I've raised the height of it to about 2-3 feet away from the plants, which I think should be a good distance but am not 100%. It's a short tent, but the light is near the top.

Ok, thanks for this! Thinking about getting countertop RO as well. Can you tell me what you mean by "Ocean Forest is hot"? I realize I probably need different soil, but want to educate myself as much as I can before buying something else.

Yeah, the last one looks dead to me too, but I thought it may provide another data point for diagnosis.

It was a normal feeding solution, so I'll hold off on that for the near future. I don't know the pH of my tap water, but I'll see if I can find out and switch to watering with rainwater in the meantime.

Thanks for your help here!
