Day 0: I'm growing in a 4' by 2' tent. I decided to start with auto flower because they seemed hassle-free. I'm using a four light T5 HO system with two 6400k and two 3000k. (I plan on buying more lights when I can) My pot size is two 3 gallon and one Two gallon. I'm sprouting in water/paper towel, then planting seedlings in red solo cups with sprouting mix, fox Farm Ocean Forest, and perlite. I will then transplant into Fox Farm/perlite mix in two weeks or when there is two sets of leaves. The temp is a steady 78 degrees so far on a test equipment run. I'll keep you posted. Any advice is welcomed. Day 2: All seeds have sprouted their taproot! The Tangerine Dream seemed to have the strongest root but all three look promising. I decided to go ahead and plant them into their home pots since they are auto flower and have a short veg time. This eliminates the worry about shock what with me being a newb at this and not having experience with transplanting. I also decided to use 2 gal pots to be frugal with the soil. If my yield suffers from it, I'll just chalk it up to a lesson learned. I'm happy all beans are ALIVE! Can't wait to see the little babies poke out of the soil. I think I'll use expanding soil pucks for sprouting next time. I think it would be the easiest and safest way to plant the seeds, especially since I'm not an experienced gardener. Day 4: Tangerine dream was the first to break through. Still waiting for the other two to join us. They are so cute at this age! Day 5: Yay! all are out and growing! I may be a little paranoid but Critical Purple and Gorilla Glue seem a bit stunted compared to Tangerine Dream, and they already have their first set of real leaves? Is that a sign of issues or normal? Tangerine Dream is looking good! I'll start posting weekly now unless things come up. Cheers!

Any ideas for the burned leaf tips? I'm thinking light burn but my light is pretty far away.

Hi @Mosephvon! My guess is that your leaves are suffering from heat, and a poor airflow, as a result the leave's tips are slowly curling and burning. To solve this issue, you can increase the distance between your apical summits and the lights, you can add a small rotating fan slightly blowing onto the plant's canopies, or you can try to decrease your daily temperature, by reinforcing the global airflow or by putting iced water bottles in your grow tent every morning. Hope this will help, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

Burnt leaf tips is usually due to nutrient burn. I'd recommend backing down on your nutrients to 1/2 or 3/4 strength. Autos don't need as many nutes as photoperiod plants. And the recommended dosage should be considered maximum strength. Nutrient companies recommend maximum strength because the faster you use up your supply, the sooner you'll order more. Personally I only feed once per week (at around 1/2 strength), the rest of the week the plants get PH'ed water only. Hope this helps! Good luck! 👍

@DudeGrowsWeed, Thanks for the info, I appreciate it. I give them 1/4 strength big bloom about twice a week.

Good luck with this grow. I just purchased a 2'x4' tent myself. It's working great. I wish I could get my lighting a little higher in the tent. I'd be interested in how you decided to mount the lighting.

Growers Choice Seeds are not bad, I like their genetics. For now I'm growing almost exclusively GCS. You did a good job! All 3 of these strains are fantastic 😍 Much love, Meus <3

MosephVonMocommented6 years ago
@iMeus, Thanks! Yeah, I'm liking GCS, so far no duds and some decent bud! I recently got some Candy Kush Auto in the mail. I can't wait to get those going in a couple months or so.

@Stick, I've been battling with the heat in the tent so this seems logical. It usually edges over 80 when it's warm in the room if I don't blast the ac. Can't wait for Autumn to finally kick in I tell you. I'm gonna try the frozen water bottles. Thanks so much!

Sadly Only time will make the buds bigger, flower boosters can be used if the plant is in top condition or it will be useless and might even be counterproductive...
