First grow ever.
Got three seeds in a damp paper town between two plates in a dark warm place.
Put one an inch in soil in my front yard.
Took top plate off added some water to paper towel and put in a ziplock bag opener.
Put in a dark closet.
Also dropped 5 Lemon O.G. seeds from a friend.
Put them in a cup of water in a dark spot.
Got them on a 18 hr timer to check on them.
Texas Chem came out leggy due to light being to far up and not powerful enough.
Should have waited for parts. Got the tent built and they are having a much better time under the light with humidifier.
Tallest is about to fall over.
Trying to keep upright . Lemon OG looking good two seedlings just coming out of dirt.
Outside seed is MIA.
One of Lenon OG didn’t pop.
Well I’ve had some drooping and yellow coloring that’s got me a bit worried but so far I’m having a blast and learning a lot.
Think I had the light to close.
Probably need some nutrients soon.
Got it in fox farms ocean mix soil.
Yellowing and drooping getting worse. I’m reading stress so I turned the light down and picked it up a few inches. Been giving them RO water every other morning. What do you guys think?
Hey there growmie. Imo it does appear to be a little too much water. And yes plants do like a little chlorine now and then . And also you mentioned that you use R.O water. That being said you might want to check for purpling or violet color on the leaves stems and new branchlets because R.O water has virtually zero dissolved minerals . Calcium and magnesium are filtered out . Also watch out for little rust colored spots on leaves. Hope that helps friend and as always happy growing.
Learning that the more I try to force this plant the slower it grows.
The best thing I did was plant the one outside to compare to my tent grow.
Definitely over watered the first three 2-3 weeks.
Turned my light down to 50% and will bring it up 5% every couple days.
Finally getting the PH right and light right and nutrients right.
Plants are looking good just taking longer due to the learning.
Don’t feel bad if you have to turn your light way down and slow everything down.
Good week!
Re potted most of them.
Got that going on where they droop about 4 hrs before lights off.
Other than that they are pretty happy and healthy.
Good week.
Getting close to flower.
Looking for advice on when.
Also any help sexing these will be awesome.
Got a trellis coming tomorrow.
Will start to LST and scrog it up.
Busy productive week on the farm.
Got the trellis up.
Got the branches nice and stretched out and went ahead and flipped her over to flower.
So today is day 3 of flower.
Hoping they are all females and not seeing any signs of males yet.
🤞 oh yeah went ahead and upgraded my light to a FC-4800 from Mars Hydro.
Psyched is an understatement.
So sorry for not updating lately fam.
Got busy with dumb ol life.
Anyway, it got a little rough after my last post.
They sexed.
4 out of 7 were dudes.
Totes mgoates was devastated and almost tossed the whole project.
Luckily I didn’t because there three girls that made are awesome especially the Texas Chem from Greenpoint seeds.
Just fantastic growth.
Anywho… ordered another tent and popped a couple autos that I will start a diary on soon.
Grow on!
Yo dude, I've grown a whole bunch of plants outdoor (between grass, dug out spots, pots, whatever) all through the year.
I just wanna tell you, if you can, clear some more space for that thing growing on the lawn there, and make like a little trench around it (maybe between 50-100cm radius away from the trunk), and then maybe place bricks or rocks or something in that to stop other roots from stealing space, nutrients, water (especially near the surface). Grass and vigorous weeds can really mess up/restrict growth by hogging space, nutrients and water.
Well, either that or transplant it, I guess? Unless it's just a novelty thing.
Cheers, best of luck.
@sir_isO, yes just a test to see which seed popping method works best.
Will be transplanting soon but thanks for the advice I love learning anything I can.
Good luck with your first grow! Enjoy every moment as the first run is special! 😉 For your seedling stretching out, I'd say that they want more light. You have a good and strong enough light and you are close enough. I guess you light is dim down? At what % your light is right now?
Looking good my friend. Mars hydro is awesome but keep an eye out for calmag deficiency. Quantum board LEDS are bad for calmag deficiency 🤜🤛. They droop when they are tired and ready for bed🤣🤣 if they are looking happy the next morning then your good bro. And they should get sleepy around the same time everyday in veg
@EddyCoKush,ya they will droop alot in veg when they go to sleep. Are they back up and healthy when the light.comes back on?? Look up calmag deficiency and you can see how the leaves are a weird blotchy yellowish color. Hard to explain it but if you look at some pictures you will see it. I use 1ml per liter every time I water. Even mixed in with the nutrients. But I use bottle water and it has everything filtered out so I need more calmag because reverse osmosis water has nothing left in it. You should of got a tsw2000. It's square and not rectangular. Yours is good for a 2x4 tent. The tsw2000 is good for 3x3 or 4x4. I got mine in a 4x4 and it's enough light for them
@Rock_n_Roll_Randy, they are perking back up and staying just beautiful until about 3 or 4 hours before lights when they droop so bad they scare me.
Should I go ahead and add like 5 ml per gallon of cal mag to the nutrient feeding? Thanks for the info on the light I had no idea.
Hoping to upgrade the light for flower but might just end up adding a 100 watt Mars.
@WinstonLeWulf, yeah sorry I’m realizing I uploaded these in backwards order mostly.
My bad.
Those were some pics I took before cutting the boys down and tossing them. But yes huge balls.
