I have no idea who is who so far but I suspect the biggest one to be the Indica seed Some mistakes I’ve made during germination contributed to some leaves not growing up. I am also questioning my choice of my pots material and size…

Week 3 of vegetation my plants are starting to curl at the tip, I think I underwateres them, and the pictures are a result of 15hours after treating them I don’t know what more can I do, should I start now to feed nutrients ?

I am questioning my choice of pot (size and material) Should I repot it? It s not doing so good as They are looking droopy because I underwatered them.. What can I do to relive them ? Maybe the lights too strong? Should I start right away to feed nutrients or still wait ? Tx

The pots are tiny, you should aim for 15-20L unless growing really tiny plants, so yes, definitely repot. If you have compost based growing medium then you do not need to feed them for a while (read what your compost bag says). If it is very nutrient rich, then you may have enough nutrients to go without extra ones for a month or even longer. The leaves look healthy so your lights are fine, they are not burning them. Most plants usually take a pause in week 3 before full veg phase starts and they begin to grow like mad so be patient. Good luck!

I switched to a 6/2 light schedule, repoted them in a 5L pot, I have used 1ml of Sensigrow when I should have used only 0.5 it’s my mistake I didn’t read the chart correctly so I’ll be paying more attention and , Also I will put a humidifier inside the tent to the help with the humidification I don’t think I have pH issues so far so I may get away with buying a new supply of pH controler and stuff (probably for the next growth, this one has been quite an investment to me) So far so good! they are healthy except from some leaves I may start soon with Stress training, I’ll think about it for the next week

I thought I had issues with magnesium deficiency or something like this, even though my ph was correct (6,5) It turned out my soil already contained nutrients (I couldn’t know I don’t speak German) so it’s more likely that my plants suffered from excessive nutrients feeds… so I re-repoted them in a 11 L pot, and will only water them for this week, or week and a half Also had an issue with my humidifier that I forgot to turn off, to they got a bit sweaty… I did let the tent door open for a while and will wait in 2 or 3 weeks before dropping the humidity and transitioning… Other than that they look amazing to me 🌱😎🤩

Nothing new they are growing really big! Still having some troubles with my ph, Ph of flushed pots is 5 and I can’t use nutrients as I risk burning them so planning to flush them in the next days until I get a runoff of 6.5 (soil + water), and leave them nutrients free for another week

My feminised plants are both 30/35 cm talk and my auto is at leat 65 cm tall, I have forgotten to close all the way through my tent, I started having Fungus Gnats, took care before they get to lay any eggs and I have fed my plants once with nutrients, since then I started having back lots of Gnats, at least 10 gnats are in there, I am sure somehow the Gnats have muted or something with nutrients because they were all gone before !!!!! Anyway, I need to find a better approach to get rid of them

I have big issues with Fungus Gnats right now, I see however no babies or eggs in the soil, I successfully got rid of them a week and a half ago by stoping watering, but I fed nutrients a week later and they got MUCH worse, there is at least 15 of them How can I get rid of flies?

Sticky traps to catch the adults and apply a coating of pumice to cover the soil, specifically the size commonly sold for the bonsai hobby. Pumice is a lightweight stone that due to its porosity is able to absorb excess moisture. When layered on top of the soil, it makes passage in and out of the top layer of soil much more difficult for the fungus gnats and can deter or prevent them from laying eggs. If using this method, wait for three weeks before removing the pumice to ensure that the fungus gnat life cycle has been completely interrupted. Some people will use neem oil, but I always use caution with it as it can make your buds taste awful. So only during veg is best and never put it on the soil. Another method to kill the eggs is to use a mix of hydrogen peroxide and water. But since your in soil it might do more harm then good by killing all the good bacteria as well.

Nothing in particular Got rid of most of the gnats by using vinegar trap with a bottle of water I think the other flowering plant is actually one of the seeds I got as gifts from rqs and it’s an auto (Nothern Lights or something like this); I thought I killed it during germination but I may have killed the sour diesel that wasn’t doing well… I have to seed the heads before conclusion
