This is my first grow and I’m excited to start. I will be growing in a space tote (2 50gallons stacked on each other with 2 150w lights and will be adding a 3rd soon ).Took the glookies seed 3 days to germinate via the paper towel method. Once it sprouted I immediately planted into its final home a 4 gallon pot. While the glookies were germinating I learned of a seed bank near my area which recently opened and they sold already rooted clones. So I purchased a doc og clone and planted it at the same time I planted the germinated glookies seed. I planted both and then watered until water started draining from the bottom. I used pride land’s premium potting soil as i was told that it stores enough nutes for 3 weeks.
This first week was pretty rough. I originally started with one seed and one clone. The seed never sprouted because I think that I over watered it. So I went and got another clone so that they will be a little more close in age when it’s time to harvest.. day 1 I over watered and then as soon as it dried up 3 days later I over watered again. The leaves started to yellow and flop down . I spoke to someone at the grow shop and they told me that I’m using too much light and that I watered way too much. So I turned off one of the 2 150 watt lights and I drained all of the run off in the collection tray. Now I’m not watering until completely dry . I’ve seen a little bit of growth it’s been 3 days for the apples and bananas and that one looks good so far. Also Today I noticed white forming on the dirt around the sides of the flower pot? Is this mold? And if so how can I safely get rid of it? . After draining excess water and turning off one of the lights 2 days later The doc og is already starting to look better the leaves are turning up and I think I’m starting to see a little growth
Plants are growing! But so is my mold problem I recently got a hygrometer and noticed that my humidity was ranging from 64-70 percent which I realize is too high and maybe that is where my mold is coming From im starting to see it coming from the drain holes on the bottom of my pot. I’m going to get a dehumidifier and see how that works. Also I attempted lst to both plants . The doc og is a week older and definitely bigger than the apples and bananas but but are coming along nicely.
Re adjusted lst wires . And defoliates. Maybe I over defoliated. But the goal was free up the space in between and . There was a lot of new growth everywhere but they were so small that I decided to cut them off and let all of the energy go towards the main branches. I am going to post a before and after . I pretty much did the same to both . But I didn’t touch the smaller plant as much . Also on the doc og I topped each of the heads
Needed a little cal mag. Moved the plants to a tent and I haven’t seen signs of needing to feed but it’s the 5th week so I added mutes at a weaker strength. Also started using molasses week 4 once or twice a week
