hello grow diary family. all seem well from day 7 to day 14, i did give nutes for the first time today. my average temps have been 76-80 during day and 69-71 at night( light on and off) and humidityhas been 69 high 63 low. as far as temp. and R.H. i have been trying to keep it with a good V.P.D. between 0.09-1.2 kpa. i give 3 cups of rain water every other day when soil gets dry and increase every week if needed. only issue is the first leaf to open is drying out for some reason i dont know but she seems to be doing well as you can see in photo its just the first two leaves on the 1 plant. i am open to help,advice and any help given. till next week happy growing. one last thing but it seem to be shorter then i expected or its still early. i dont have a clue this is the first time i have grown anything since elementry school and thats over 30 years ago. happy growing

started LST Sat, 11/4{ did my best my 1st time}.,Tues.11/7 ,Fed nutrients 4ml.sensi grow A-B, 2ml. Bud Candy, 2ml. Bud Ignitor, 4ml. Cal-Mag. Thurs. 11/9 did some defoliation and to me it looks o.k. but IDK this is my 1sr time growing dont know what to look for to trouble shoot. Wed..11/8 look like pistols started to show up on my girls, So it must be time to start the bloom nutrients, girls are 29 days old.
Maintained the LST and Defoliated girls and to me they seemed to be fine with everything done. I also gave them nutrients on 11/12 and plain water 11/16 and both was until runoff. This was the 1st week with UVA lights on for 1 hour at the end of the days light schedule.{ Ladies seem to have no issue with UVA} only issue is #2 seem to be having a rough grow, not sure whats going on with her.Other then that to me with my limited knowledge and this being my 1st grow ever and the mistakes i made they look to be fine to me, but IDK.Either way i'm happy and enjoy growing my own BUD. Thank you all for the responses that i have received from the community on Growdiaries. HAPPY GROWING!!!
