First time grower here, looking for a little advice. Planted straight in small jiffy pot with medium, (potting mix and perlite) When germinating the shell got stuck on the leaves coming out of the soil. With a little encouragement with a tweezers I managed to get the shell off. The next day still no improvement with the leaves opening and I realised there was still some membrane from seed still on leaves. Some more encouragement and then she started to make a move. Have had her under a small “full spectrum” led lamp since she sprouted but doesn’t seem to be growing very much and I’m in week 3. I transplanted into its final (fabric) pot 15l in week 2 but it doesn’t seem to have grown like it should. I’ve looked through a few diarys and am trying to figure out what’s wrong. Can anyone help? Cheers in advance.

Those first two (rounded) "leaves" that have gone yellow are actually called cotyledons. Their only purpose is to protect the growing tip as it pushes through the soil. For them to turn yellow and die in the first few days is perfectly normal and of no consequence, they have nothing to do with the growth or health of the plant. 18/6 is much more cannabis friendly by the way, cannabis needs a good sleep every day to function properly. No need to feed the plant just yet, there should be enough goodness in the soil for the first couple of weeks growth, providing it was decent soil to start with. High amounts of perlite are qite unnecessary, it only reduces the amount of available nutrients in the soil mix. Most modern soil mixes have good drainage and porosity, making the addition of large amounts of perlite unnecessary, it really is only needed for poor draining soils and if used in with modern soil mixes, really only needs to be 1-3% at most. Anyway, your plant is fine and the cotyledons turning yellow. dying and falling off is all part of normal cannabis life cycle, so no need to worry. Hope this helps, Organoman.

That seed just popped give her a bit of time before feeding if you are in soil. If it's in soil and the soil has any fortification, it should not need feed for at least two-three weeks. If it is not soil and its soilless with not fortification you will need to be using very week feedings. like 1/4 the low amount to feed your plants. No idea of your feeding schedule or what you intend to use. If it dry organic amendments, get a PH meter. If its liquid nutrients, get a PH meter and a TDS pen. you will need both tools to calibrate the feed solution to the desired EC and PH. Best Of Luck!

You've got a lot right going! Great job. A few pointers if I may. Have you studied VPD? ( Vapour Pressure Deficit) and how it affects the growth of your plant? If you haven't done so, it's a must-know for all growers. Other than that get yourself a PAR meter and a Thermal IR Laser Gun to read the temps on the tops of your plants and get the best PAR readings from your lights to the plants. I'm looking forward to your weekly updates. Happy growing! If you have the time follow me and check out my 200 LED Light 7000 plant diary. If you also have any questions, send me a message any time.

It's expected to rid seed hull & membrane. Not doing this soon enough sometimes causes stress early. I've grew 50+ magnums but not enough THC for I need mid 20's.

New grower, I'll give you some tips on bigger plants faster with more bud. 1.) The bigger the root system, the more roots to transport more nutrients, which means bigger plant faster & more buds. Trick: soak seeds 24 hrs. In suprthrive 1-2 drops gallon. After 1 week, put sponge plugs from bottom of root to 1/2" below leaves & plant. As plant gets bigger, put on another sponge plug, 4-5 plugs max. This will allow huge root system to develop. 2.) Use ph perfect nutes, which will eliminate almost all work getting ph right. 3.) Use flower fuel 2 weeks in budding, not flowering with hairs. Cheap, fast, low maintenance, bigger plants with massive root systems equals big harvest

I don't know why, but I think the plant is also a little small. the comments made are also normal, they are wrong, this is an autoflower
