First grow of my life. Have a very basic and mostly DIY setup but so far (day 6) seedlings have kept a consistent growth and have initiated their set of second serrated leaves. Should have two full sets by tmr evening (end of day 7). I noticed that they were very dark and slightly droopy. started giving them bit more to drink and they have responded well.
To all exp growers, any constructive comments, advice etc would be great. Plz refrain from commenting if all you have is hate to share!
Stay safe friends!
Alright, so my cat got into my grow room and went crazy. 2 soldiers down. Left with three. Two seemed ok while the third looked mangled.
Once the damage was repaired I watered with the first go at adding nutes. I used Jobe's fertilizer sticks (13-4-5). Since I knew that would be too many nutes for auto's I diluted the sticks in water and did a test with 1/8 1/4 1/2 of the recommended dose on the packaging.
However, as the pics show, I have a nutrient issue with one of them. I NEED HELP to identify what the issue is. This plant received 1/2 of the recommended amount of fertilizer.
I was thinking perhaps I should do some leaching, which I understand is where you give a good amount of ph neutral water for two or three watering cycles before progressively starting to feed again. ANY ADVICE WOULD REALLY HELP!
Stay safe friends.
Can anyone help me with diagnosing what appears to be a nutrient deficiency? I used Jobe's fertilizer sticks (13-4-5) [I know, horrible stuff but its all I could get for the next two weeks] which I diluted to 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 of the recommended amount as per label. CHEERS!
Hi @Wilax it seems to me that you are giving growth feeds too soon, your substrate seems to me to have quality, if it is a well-fertilized substrate it can last 2-3 weeks with only root stimulator. good luck mate 🙏👍
Symptoms: stunted growth + Pale lime green leaves + edges are curling upwards (canoeing) + Leaf vein is purple + drooping + burn spots on tips and leaf face
Nutes used on day 12: 1/2 of a crushed fert stick (13-4-5) diluted into ph neutral water.
Any advice would mean the world!
Hi @Wilax it seems to me that the substrate is soaked, you have to let the substrate dry well between each watering, control the pot by weight, when it is almost dry it becomes very light. attention to excess fertilization which can also be a cause, your substrate seems to me to be good, decreases the dosage and increases according to the response of the plant, in terms of growth and development. good luck mate 👍
Hello fellow growers, thanks for stopping by!
This week I started LST on 2/3 plants. first time doing this so curious to see how they respond.
The third plant has not recovered well. I'm unsure if it is caused by overwatering, which I have been really careful about, or if it has something to do with the previous nutes or perhaps a combination of newbie mistakes I'm failing to catch myself on. Some have proposed I transplant into new soil. Is it too late at this point to do this? seeing as this is an autoflower I know transplanting can shock-em pretty hard, hence why I planted in final pots from the get-go.
Any further advice, diagnostic or recommendation is always welcome.
as always, stay safe friends!
Both plants began flowering this week. Both plants saw good growth and seem to respond well to the LST.
PROBLEM:
1. Plant B is clearly a female however I'm having serious anxiety with Plant A which has showed NO PISTILS so far. Plant A is my strongest and best growing plant, can anyone HELP tell if it is a HERMAPHRODITE!!!!
2. Some canoeing on new growth, lower fan leaves show less of it. I lowered my light recently, could this be the cause (i.e heat/light stress
I'm having serious anxiety with Plant A which has NO PISTILS yet. Plant A is my strongest and best-growing plant!!! can anyone HELP to determine if its because it has become a hermie or (hopefully) just slower than my other plant ( pistils appeared 4d ago).
Stay safe friends
No this is not heat stress this is how the new growth are loiking like . No it's not an hermaphradite , it can takes longer then her sister to get the 1st pistils but they will come soon
