//////////////////////////////////////// - Notes- ////////////////////////////////////////
Plants seem to be doing well.
[10 Nov. 2021] : Replaced #4 with a new seed, hopefully it catches up to the rest.
[13 Nov. 2021][Day 13]: Made some rearrangements in the tent. Moved the lights closer, hanging 61cm (24 inches) away from the plants now. Was hanging 85cm away before so hopefully the sudden increase doesn't stress them out too much.
[14 Nov. 2021][Day 14]: Moved the light up a bit, now hanging 70cm away (28 inches).
//////////////////////////////// - Watering / Feeding - ////////////////////////////////
Struggling to determine when to water but I guess that's only natural. I've heard time and time again that beginners tend to overwater so I'm being super cautious about it. Hopefully me being cautious doesn't end up with me underwatering, guess we'll see.
💧 [11 Nov. 2021][Day 11]: Watered them all with 1.5ml/l of GrowGuru Amino Mix (ph: 6.5)
///////////////////////////////////// - Problems - //////////////////////////////////////
- Humidity is starting to become a problem. Saw it go as low as 36%! Since I'm sucking in air from outside my RH is super dependent on outdoor conditions. Looking at getting a humidifier.
- Found some thrips developing on a plant I brought inside from outside [Totemics - Strawberry Sugar Cookies (Deluxe Sugar Cane x Strawpicanna)]. In hindsight it wasn't very smart to bring it in from outside without inspecting it thoroughly, but you live and you learn I guess.
☢️ [12 Nov. 2021][Day 12]: Sprayed all the plants inside with some Biogrow Neudosan (20ml/l) to get rid of the thrips.
Hey there…I hope you don’t mind me chiming in and offering some assistance.
I’m no expert growing indoors but have grown plenty outside.
So I’m learning myself.
The one thing that jumped out at me was the plants looked bone dry in every pic…or almost every pic.
Seedlings need very little water and they often get overwatered, but once those plants are somewhat established, say 2-3 weeks, you wanna soak your pot completely edge to edge and top to bottom.
Then if you have a good draining medium you should wait until they are totally dried out to water again.
Small plants in veg may take 4-5 days but once they start flowering and stretching they can drink a lot.
Feel the weight of your pot and once it’s light you can water/feed.
A decent rule is about 1/3 (or just a bit less) of your pot size….so a 3 gal pot would take 1 gal per watering……5 gal would take roughly 1.5 gal.
If your soil is amended, you shouldn’t have to feed it anything for at least 3 weeks.
Then tread lightly but without good watering habits the plants won’t do well.
Good job getting some good looking smoke from your maiden voyage.
Now let’s increase those plant sizes and yield by 10x at least.
Hello there! I had a lot of fun reading you diary. I'd like to ask,do you really test the ph with a ph tester? If you use those liquid ph test kits and then add the nutes the ph will reach an extremely low point, ph=4 for example, and then an Nitrogen deficiency will happen sooner or later.Check the following link if you wish or you can search it by your self. It might help.

Hope my advise come in handy and will help you grow😉
Check my diaries if you wish.
Peace MH
Forgot to mention that ONLY IF YOUR LADIES WHERE HEALTHY(!!!) you should cut those popcorn nugs on the lower part around week 4 or 5 maybe.It a waste of resources.
