9th April - It's been a week since they first went outside into the sun and i am so nervous! I started out with 5 seeds, one did not take after germination, it just did not appear through the soil, another had appeared through the soil but on the same day i took these photos, it still had it´s shell on super tight and by later in the day it had totally drooped down into the soil, so out of the 5 seeds, only 3 successful sprouters!! Better than none! One seems to have white tips, another is going a paler green colour, and the other looks good (still got a bit of its shell stuck on the leaf but i won't touch it). Searched for possible reasons i have white tips and the pale green colour, concluded i may have watered a bit too much and need to re-check the ph of my water and the run off. Turns out the water is reading at 6.5 almost 7, so definitely need to understand what to do straight away so i don't ruin them!!!

KeepinItRealstarted grow question 4 years ago
Am I right to understand that i do not need to put any nutrients in the water until my plants are about 3 weeks old? I have BioBizz on standby for when the time is right (BioGrow, BioBloom, and TopMax). Any advice from growers that are familiar with these products? Thanks x

I think it would depend on your soil. If it has it then you would wait. I use fox farm happy frog and I usually don't add any nutes until the end of veg if I veg 2+ months. And autos are usually sensitive to them so go light.

With Autoflowers that is about correct but it depends on what substrate you use to grow them. When growing in soil, you should be fine without nutrients until flower. That is unless the plant starts to tell you otherwise, eg. Lower leaves start to yellow, deficiencies appear, etc. When growing in soiless mediums like coco coir you will need to feed from the get go, lightly but much more frequently. Autoflowers in general don’t like nutrients as much compared to photo period strains. Of course that varies from genetic to genetic but is a common trend among autos.

@KeepinItReal, there are so many different things people like or do,,it can be a personal thing,,I personally do not buy special ferts etc ,,I mix molasses, peroxide and ferts in a bottle and use some of it every 2-4 waterings a cap full with the water that day,,only once i scrape a small amount of ASA(aspirin) and scrape a small amount of calcium off a calcium table and desolve that in the bottle after shes a few weeks old..but thats just me..I show it and a bottle of it in my diary..

@Sweet_Seeds, thanks a lot! I am a total newbie so any tips or advice very much welcome! I am just about to put some new photos on my diary, i had some white leaf tips on one of them, and another started going paler green, checked again the ph and realised i needed to lower it as the water was about 6.5 - 7...😢 checked the run off and it was the same so i added a bit of white vinegar to the water, until ph reading 5.5 - 6.....the plants look like they appreciate it, they look stronger than the other day si i am hoping the colour improves too and they get better!

@CheckThoseTrichs, do you think they will be ok now that i think i have sorted the ph? Worried that i have damaged them too early and they might not recover? Thanks x
