First grow ever! There will probably be a lot of rookie mistakes, but that's how you learn i guess ;-) Got two different strains so i will split this into two seperate diaries. (other diary: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/147449-grow-journal-by-cypresshill78) Day 1: Soaked coco coir pellets for about 5 minutes and put one seed in each pellet about 0,5cm to 1cm deep. Covered seed with some of the pellet material. I placed the pellets into a starter tray and closed the lid so that humidity would rise. After 12 hours or so sprayed some tap water on top of each pellet with a PH around 7 - 7.5 which is prob a bit too high.. Day 2: Started lighting the seeds as suggested by community. Dimmed the lamp down to 40% and hanged it in a distance of 60cm, light cycle is 16/8. Sprayed some tap water on top of each pellet in the morning. Day3: First seed became visible above earth! They get a little tap water once in a while with a drop of lime or vinegar to get PH down to about 6 - 6.5. Days 4 to 5: One after another i can see my babies growing :-) One of them hasn't germinated yet, maybe in a couple days.. Day 6: First White widow is showing her leaves 😍 Day 7: Moved from plants germination tray to slightly bigger pots using BioBizz light mix soil. Started giving some nutrients: about per plant about 1ml of RootJuice in 120ml water per plant. Temps are often around 30°C which is too much! put an ice pack into the tent hoping to get temps down alittle but didnt really help...

Hey guys, i was wondering if one of my plants maybe needs special attention bc it looks like leaves are hanging a little bit.. I water every two days with around 150ml per pot and started gving some nutes (see above for ml per plant).

Start adding new weeks on your diary so it provides a better picture to read for diagnosis please. What it looks like to me is a water issue with that plant. Plus light intensity is too strong. Turn down or back off plants some. Leaves will stand up in praying fashion when you find the sweet spot for that stage of growth. You are a little heavy on feed as well. The darker green is starting to show. If giving nutes maintain a run off of at least 20 percent. If in soil they need a wet, and dry cycle. More information would help of course. Ph readings, ppm or ec readings, what substrate, what's mix consistency parts and how much. I think you need more perlite in that one to solve watering issue. Improve plants resistant to it. Good luck

One of my plants is kinda short but bushy on top, so i was wondering if i should maybe remove some leaves so that the lower parts of the plant will get more light ? Plant in question is 4 weeks old now and around 12cm in height.

i'm with grannie.. think you need to illicit a bit more stretch out of the plants even if you do remove a leaf or two. axillary growth needs to spread out to be useful... so removing leaves to help grow what will be the oldest growth and potentially pruned off anyway isn't as helpful as you think it is. i'd rather that side growth stretch a little bit to reach light, then train it as needed. those first couple nodes won't even produce a decent bud anyway if you don't lollipop or defo at all, and most likely liek i said, it won't be there when the plant is in bloom unless it's a really tiny autoflower.

Couple of things here... and I'll take them in no particular order because they are equally important... First, you're really overdoing the nutes for this age of an autoflower... they don't like nor do they need nutes for the first two (maybe even 3) weeks of their life and when nutes are first introduced, they should be only at about 1/4 strength. Overdosing on nitrogen (your grow nutes) will cause leaves to droop like this... but so will my second point: Watering... either over- or under-watering will cause leaves to droop. You want to let the plant tell you when it needs additional water ... let the pot dry out completely so that it is terribly lightweight when you pick it up... the most common way people kill ANY plant is to overwater... so don't go by a schedule YOU have devised (i.e., X amount of water every X days) ... let the PLANT and the POT tell you. For example, I have one grow going where on Wednesday last week, I needed to water... the next day, the pot was super light again so I fed it... two days in a row! But then they didn't need to be watered for 3 days and then I needed to feed them 2 days later... Go with what the PLANT tells you! I will disagree with my growmie, Roberts, here on light intensity. I grow all my autos (and they're all I grow) on full intensity from about Day 3 of their lives until I harvest them. If you start to see some burning of the leaves, raise the lights or pull the plant away from the light with a little LST. So here is my advice: first, back off on your grow nutes by 1/2 for the next week or two (bloom nutes won't hurt them much). Second, make sure the soil is completely dry when you give them something else - OR make sure you're not making the plant wait interminably for more water when it needs it earlier. Third (and I don't know if you do this or not as there's no way to tell - and forgive me if I'm telling you something you already know) - make sure you're alternating between water and nutes... so water/feed/water/feed ... some people do water/water/feed/water/water/feed - personally, I like the former. Autoflowers are, for some, irritating to grow. Me? I love them... they're certainly a challenge and you will learn something new with every grow! Good luck!

I think i know whats going on now.. I put in water with PH around 6.3.. today i tested the PH coming out of the bottom of the pots after watering them heavily (without nutes) and it was at 5.63PH, for one plant it was 5.3 (the one with the brown spots from the grow question). So i'm guessing the ph of the soild is too acidic because i overdid the nutes ?

Thanks everybody for you're help with my grow questions, it's really invaluable for a first-time grower as me ;-) I think i def have to cut back on the nutes.. just thought bc i use the light soil mix i might start sooner with it but i guess i thought wrong! Also i wasnt aware that one should alternate between watering with nutes and w/o nutes, so i put them in every time i water 😐 As for when i water it is usually when the pot gets real light and dry-like which is about every other day, so i guess i'm doing that one ok..
