Build up a grow closet and chose Amnesia Haze for my first attempt at growing.
Spent lots of time setting up the closet correctly to maintain best growing conditions - think I was successful as temperature is steady, humidity does fluctuate between 40 - 70% during lights on/off.
Think I chose the wrong strain though for my first attempt. I am on day 18 and the plant has barely grown - or do I just have wrong expectations?
First, I let it go completely dry and it wouldn't take up any water, put it in a 3L pot and now I think I overwatered ;) Leaves turning a little bit yellow, nothing too crazy yet though.
Worst is though that I dont see any progress for about 2 weeks it seems. Plant is not growing taller, leaves always drooping no matter what I do.
Will keep trying, any comments appreciated!
Feels like the plant hasn't done anything in 2 weeks while this is only day 18 after sprouting from medium.
Leaves always droopy no matter if I give a lot of water or too little.
Leaves feel like paper, but giving more water doesn't change anything.
Stunted or am I impatient?
Yeah buddy cause the plant is drowning! Looks like it rains all day. better water her once more a little than one big watering.
Let her dry out until the soil becomes light and than water the outside of the soil so the plant grow more roots while searching for water :)
Hey, looks like you read alot and diy the most. but one thing you cant read enough to understand how important the right amount of water is!
Thats something comes with expierence :)
Learning by doing
@Foxylove420,thanks for commenting, I definitely need to get the hang of it. Ill let it dry out and then slowly watering each day. Hope I can see a difference in the plant leafs as indication.
Happy Growing, Buddy! 🌱🌱🌱 As for your plants, yeah I agree that they don't look all that happy. What type of medium/nutrients are you using? Also, are you checking the pH of your water?
@love_2_grow, thanks for taking the time to comment! So far no nutrients, just soll and room temp watering. Not checking the ph though as it shouldnt have an influence at this point.
You had some input on my grow, just curious to see where your grow is at since you wanted to comment on mine. Doesn't look very good in my newbie opinion.
@Jarms79, thanks for your visit :) just updated the grow! It's looking really good, topped the plant twice and now some LST. Growing fast and puts out lots of leafs. Still has some time left in the veg phase.
First lower your lights to 60cm from plants and give them 0.3l next few days. Soil must be dry when you put your finger where you have watered. You can start feeding them with half of dosage of whatever you will give them.
What lights are you using?
@Virke, thx for commenting. Plants have really come back to life and are looking good! I'll give them another week then put them in an 11L pot and start feeding them. Exciting times :)
Looks good but what are the lights your using could be they nit strong enough to grow so they slow down I have had loads problems with cheap leds lights never what they say in watts
@Growladyeastmidlands, thanks for your comment, but those are Hortione 360 130W LED lights. They are not cheap and suit this small grow space nicely. It's only 60x80cm and they fill out everything nicely imo. Will keep an eye on it for sure though.
