@kevinC I'm a noob, but something I've done that I've noticed you also did was plant a bit lower than the edge of the container. Next time, I'm not going to this that. The 3-4inch gap above the soil line, to the edge of the pot I believe holds moisture, and creates a humidity pocket and that's what I've been wanting to blame some of my mold issues on, idk if that's the case, but its something I don't plan on doing again. Don't know if its a problem, or what your reasoning was I did it because i didn't want soil blowing around the tent from the fans, but I want my soil to have air flow and able to dry out asap. Also I've heard of aerating your soil after feeding with something like a chopstick going forward I'm going to be doing that. Gl to me a noob your plants look good :D gl

When should I start my 1st topping? I have 2 plants both have 5 nodes with the next set of leaves growing. I was thinking of waiting until the stem grows to about 1cm and then cut 0.5cm above the 5th node. This is my 1st time growing please help.

I go by nodes and height.. I usually top between 4th and 6th node, depending on height. - Mostly cuz I got a tiny tent, and I generally prefer bushes over trees. Be careful when you do it tho. Watch some videos of other people doing it beforehand, to get a feel for it, since a bad topping can set the plant back quite significantly.

How much should I water? I last watered plant 24hrs ago with 300ml of 6.2 ph tap water at lights on. She is now 14cm in height in a 20l fabric pot starting 2nd week of veg (I counted veg when she started developing the 2nd set of 7 fingered serrated leaves ending seedling stage

Hi :) I usually just look at the soil: if the top 5 cm of soil are dry, then I water. I also find it useful to "weight" the pot with your hands. Pick it up right after watering and then every time you check on the plant pick it up again.You'll soon learn how much your pot weights when the soil is dry and ready to water. Anyway, I grow outdoor and I water about every other day while flowering and once every 2-3 days during veg. It really depends on the weather for me

Do I need CalMag for growing with CocoCoir? I want to use: Cococoir with perlite - 70/30 ratio GHE Flora Trio (From previous grow) GHE don't recommend to use CalMag what do you guys think? https://www.eurohydro.com/calcium-magnesium-supplement

Follow the instructions on the bottle! Cal/mag is really only needed in extra amounts during flowering. Obviously GHE have formulated their "grow" fertilizer with adequate cal/mag, hence why they say not to add any extra. Too much calcium can make your ph really fluctuate. Hope this helps....

At some point you will need to add a little, but go easy when you do. 100 to 150 ppm 0.2 to 0.3 ec and only add when you see them starting to need a little. The ppm of cal/mg you add gets taken away from your other nutes so it keeps your ec feed level the same. Cheers

They look kind of small. You are probably overwatering, which is keeping them small. Also, stop feeding them, let the plant feed itself from the new soil.

@@nicks, thanks dude! I checked my soil description when I saw your comment. Thanks for the head up.

KevinCcommented4 years ago
@@@Athos, thanks for the tips. I checked up the soil and it mentions that the nutrients in the soil are adequate for up to 2-6 weeks before any additional is required. Will also try not to over water. Thanks alot

@KevinC, Idk if it'd say but on the bag of promix i had it said i think feed after 7 days, I'm a noob but that's what it said that's what i did. As well as measuring or getting a feel for what a empty container feels like, vs a fed container.

Wow everything looks great so far for your first grow! I followed you and I'm following the rest of this diary. I too am doing my first indoor grow. If you can give me a follow back and check my diary out 🙂. Also wanted to ask what kind of clip on fan you are using? I'm looking to get one but don't know which one I should buy. Thanks!✌️&❤️

KevinCcommented4 years ago
@Grinz714Grows, thank you, I appreciate it :) Yeah 1 of the most stressful projects I have undertaken, I' m sure you agree. I'm using regular 15cm clip on fans (non-oscillating) for my first time grow as I wanted to just learn the process plus had a strict budget, although if you have the extra money I would say get the oscillating as you would get better air distribution.
