Let me apologize for any lack of data during these first few weeks. I just wasn't keeping track of certain things. Well, I was, I just wasn't writing it down.
No excuse really, but I'm trying to do better now.
So this was week one. All 3 seeds were germinated in damp paper towels for 3 days on top of my refrigerator until the tap roots popped. They were planted on a Friday, 4/26. I'm calling the following week, 4/28 - 5/4, Week 1. That is the week that these pictures are from.
The 2 collage pictures are from 4/28 & 4/29. All "weeks" in this diary are a traditional Sun. - Sat.
If you'll notice the pots. I bought them thinking that they were 1 gallon fabric pots, they weren't what I thought. They did have fabric inside...they just weren't any good. There was absolutely no drainage, which obviously isn't good. I thankfully realized what was going on and ordered different, actual fabric pots, and transplanted them next week.
At this stage all 3 plants are in a Super Sprouter Dome with a 1ft T5 light and a heat mat in my 2x4 Gorilla Tent. The temps were in the 70s and humidity varied from 50-60%.
They received nutrients the day after they were planted (4/27).
Hi @@Pseudo, Thanks for checking out my diary. No, the plan I was following from YouTube channel GrowPotCheaply had me using Bloom for the first (roughly) 3 weeks. I actually got the length of use wrong (along with a lot of other things) during my first grow. I should have only been using Bloom for the first 10 days during the seedling stage. The author of the plan states that the nutrients found in the Bloom formula do a better job of promoting root growth in the early stage of growth.
If you read through the rest of this diary and my next you'll see all the lovely mistakes I made. hahaha
Peu d'évolution sur les 4 premier semaine de Flo, tu a récolter trop tôt elle on prit du retard pour je ne sais quel raison mais c'est domage trop peu de rendement, les tête ont l'air très légère et aéré
@@Pseudo, yea I had a lot of environment issues during my first grow. If I am remembering correctly, I believe the week you are referencing I had to run out twice that particular week. Once to buy a portable air conditioner and again to buy a dehumidifier. It was a rough ride through the first grow but I managed not to kill them...which was just about my only goal (besides a little bud to smoke).
Now the 2nd grow which I just finished not too long ago...that was seriously disappointing. I had much higher hopes...but I am in week 3 now of Grow 3 (will start posting that diary soon) and I do believe that I have figured out what my biggest issue was...and I had absolutely no clue!
Stay tuned for diary 3 for the answer.
@BIGBUDZ450, I think I might have been a little over zealous this first grow and it may have hurt my bud size. With the current grow I'm trying a little more "less is more", or at the very least trying not to do too much. I'm still learning, or trying to learn. I've seen videos of plants in so many different states that it's hard to judge what's the right amount. I did do a big defol almost 2 weeks ago. My current diary is about to be 2 weeks behind. I've been stupid busy and update it when I can. I'm going to try and get it up to date this weekend.
@Puffer_Bill, Thanks for the comments & props Bill. 👊 I'm still back-filling the diary and I don't want to give away too much 😜 but I will say that the girls are doing OK. I haven't killed them yet. haha
