What is "first true leafs"?
domatostarted grow question 4 years ago
Heya guys!
A little n00b question? :p
I AM using General Hydroponics fertelizers, and like understand what they mean with "first true leafs" on subtitles?
What is the "first true leafs"? It is like #1 plant (with 5 'leafies', or will be the newer small leafs)?
Thank you all ^^

Growing has its own Speech.... and there are a lot of Words that have aspecial meaning.....
" first true leaves" are the leaves after the 2 Leaves that "cover" the seedling........ the so called coteleydons...... those are the first green signs of life
and all leaves other those are " true leaves"
If you are unsure just take alook into one of my Diarries and you may find some educational stuff.... i recommend " cookies for me"
dot worry and if you got more questions just ask
thats what counts

They're your first spiky leaves that usually begin forming almost immediately after popping. First true leaves are usually a single finger.

3 days in, only cotydelons with no sign of the first true leaves. Have you seen this and has it recovered?This plant was stunted at the start after he couldn't get his hat off, but now looks pretty healthy however it's been 3 days of just cotydelons and absolutely no sign of the first true leaves. Have you had this before and did it recover to eventually grow true leaves?a year ago

First Grow 4 weeks into Veg - Let my humidity get too high for 1 night. Need help with mold/septoria/?Last 3 days I've pruned diseased leaves every morning, foliar sprayed peroxide leaves & topsoil, & added some to watering solution. Is only affecting one plant in tent. Humidity no longer issue (was waiting 4 inline fan). If I keep pulling off leaves it's going to die anyway.Leaves. Other

Big difference in first true leaves' sizeBig difference in first true leaves' size
Its almost day 5 after emergence. Is this normal? Should I be concerned?
ALSO: It's still a seedling but, I maybe think the cup in which i'm growing it in is too small, or rather I put too little soil (9cm diameter , 4cm tall dirt).Leaves. Other

Are CBD-Strains less nutrient-hungry?Hey Guys, i experienced that these strains like a lower EC/TDS. Every time i went over 1.2 EC (600ppm TDS) they showed signs of over-nutrition, like very dark green leaves and reddish brown leavetips. What are your thoughts on this? Are CBD-Strains less hungry on nutrients?Week 13

Stains on the plantHey guys,
first of all, thank you for taking the time to read this. I started growing my first canopy and since I am little excited, I started before everything I ordered arrived. For that reason, I am still using the soil I used while planting the seed. Did I fuck up already?Leaves. Other
