Bloody Skunk Auto

cbot61 Light: MH SP 250 Medium: 50/50 FFOF/FFHF + 1/3 Perlite Sept. 27 - Soaked soil and let dry a few hours. Dropped 4 Bloody Skunks directly in soil. Started light at 34" from soil. Oct 2 - Barb, Beth, Sara, and Savanna all sprouted 5 days later in that order. Oct 5 - Sara's leaves look like they have a couple small holes. Maybe something took a bite. Will need to stay vigilant. The rest look happy :) Oct 8 - Sara seems to be fine and is growing. Barb and Sav are showing the best growth. Beth is now the one falling behind and one of her newest leaves look kinda weird. End of week 1 - Looking like I have 4 reasonably healthy skunks. Felt like I was under-watering as I only used a spray bottle but they don't look like they show any symptoms of over/under-watering. I think the only potential issues this week were maybe pests and nutrient toxicity. Next week I'll start using a watering can, and will gradually move the lights down. I want them to have plenty of light and water as they veg without overdoing it. Hopefully they get enough CO2 through the passive intake.

cbot61 This week flew by. Oct 10 - Watered about 1.5 L each Oct 14 - Watered 2 L each and added Voodoo Juice. Due to circumstances, I watered a day or two later than I would have liked, and I think my plants were a bit dehydrated. The leaves are showing some yellowing toward the edges and the older leaves are curling up a bit. I think it's signs of under-watering and either nutrient burn or PH too low. One problem fixed, just need to check PH before next watering.

cbot61 Plants have been having some issues. The older leaves yellowing, curling, and wilting. Newer leaves drooping. Beth just growing sideways. New growth looks to be improving after watering with ~8 PH water. I think the main issue is the PH of the soil is too low (Fox Farms mix), and maybe under-watering. In the future I'm going to try soilless or a nutrient free soil.
