Week 3 still just watering she collapsed when watered two days ago think due to light being to high ? I lowered the light from 24inch to about 14 and she seems more stable ! Although top seems abit crooked
Any advice ? When should I be initiating first feed was thinking around now but she seems abit fragile
Should I be looking to give a small feed around now or give it another week on water ?! Take into account what I wrote on the dairy week 3 ! Thanks also what’s usually the best sign when to start I will be giving minimal amounts unless told to increase further down the line !
It's leggy and slow-growing because it needs more light. Move it closer to the light source (which you say you've already done) and she'll improve. In the meantime, train a little fan on her - it won't reverse the stretch, but it will strengthen the weak stem and stop her from falling over.
RE: nutrients: the seed itself contains all the stuff the plants need for the first week or two - once you've got two sets of leaves you can start with some nutrients. You're growing in soil, so when you need to start to adding nutrients will depend on what soil you're using...
I can't see from the grow diary what you're using. If it's a pre-fertilised soil (e.g. Biobizz all mix, Canna Professional Plus, Plant Magic, etc.) then you can probably hold off for another week. If it's not (e.g. Biobizz light mix), then you can start adding some nutrients now. Just start off at half the suggested dosage. You can increase the dosage as the plant gets larger and once you're confident she's taking it down. Water until you get about 10% run-off and alternate between plain water and nutrient solution every feeding to prevent build up salts and waste nutrients in the pot.
Good luck! :)
Seems to be going well? Only issue I could expect to run into at some point is rootbound as it’s a smaller pot! Also somereason on it’s last feed it stunk of shit!!! Not sure why it has not smelt that bad ever since.
Any advice be great!
Can’t work it out but something seems weird the two middle 2nd tier leaves keep pointing downwards sometimes and she seems tall but not many branches :/ not sure when to add bloom nutes as it’s now week 5! Any advice ?
They're fine, they don't point upwards all the time, especially towards the end of the day they will point downwards, then up again as the sun comes up. The stems stretch when they're reaching for light. Cannabis loves direct sunlight so don't hide her behind other pots or in shadows if you can help it - make sure she's getting hit by the sunlight directly.
Good luck!
Flowering has started not sure if stretch has happened but fed first bloom nutes two days ago! Small doze wasn’t expecting much from this as its in a small pot as was a free seed ! See how she goes some discoloring has happened to bottoms leaf’s my guess to much nutes !
Any advice ?
This week has took a weird turn it’s a free seed so no biggy will see how turns out but any advice be great she started off with bottoms leafs going yellow then quickly almost most leafs i checked her numbers and the ppm is 602 with the ph shockingly dropping to 5.0 when I water with 5.9! What could be the issue
We will try find out!
Had to flush her to get her to 6.3 ph from 5.0! Started to feed her struggling to get ppm back up! She sitting at 500 right now 🤔 let’s see how she goes
This free seed growed very small but expected as the pot I put her in 😂 she’s looking near the end will start to flush with flawless finish for 5/7 days with a 3 day darkness to end ! Let’s see what’s on her probably lucky if 20g 😀
