First Grow

Hi All! Starting my first grow, seeds will be going in the soil 16/3/20. Have a 4x2x5ft tent that fits perfectly in a spare closet. The exhaust fan exits into the closet but I’m hoping that keeps the temperature at an appropriate level. My home has an air exchanger which I have split into my tent so fresh air is being drawn in. I’m using a soil made locally in Nova Scotia called Kryptonite. They claim that no additional nutrients are needed for the plants, so I hope to only add water, occasionally mixed with liquid seaweed and/or molasses. I’m going to try and keep this as organic as possible. I will be running a mixture of autoflowers from Sweet Seeds genetics; Dark Devil, Devil Cream, Cream Mandarin XL, and Honey Peach CBD. I also have two Cheese autos from Canuk going into small clay pots as a back up in case one of the other plants don’t take. I welcome all comments and questions! Looking forward to joining a community that I have been following for a while. *18/3/20 Update* All six plants have sprouted. Used the paper towel method to form taproots, planted directly in soil. *19/3/20 Update* Photos added of the sprouts, all seem to be looking good so far. Tent is being kept around 24/25C with humidity between 70-75.

*3/25/20* First day of week two. Added some photos from today. Also gave the little guys a light watering this morning. The Cream mandarin seems to be growing incorrectly. Not sure if I should remove it or just see where it goes. On the first pair of leaves it seems only one side grew. Its trying to grow another set, so I hope it recovers. Also noticed a little burn on the Devil Cream leaf tips. Any comments/help/suggestions are appreciated!

*4/1/2020* Start of week three (day 14) photos added. I have been keeping the tent at a consistent 25 degrees with an rh of 60. I have been watering about a half gallon per plant every two days, alternating between seaweed nutrients and molasses. I have noticed the Devils Cream leaves have started to curl, almost looking dry. After a slow start the Cream Mandarin is looking better.

*4/8/20* Update The plants have started to flower so I have lowered the lights a little. I have cut back on the water and the plants are looking better. I have also started to do a little training on the plants, trying to get the light to shine through. I reduced the humidity in the tent as well from the mid 60 range to about 50-55.
