Slow growth, terrible appearance

dzirofystarted grow question 3y ago

A week after seeding. Hawaiian Snow (GHS), planted it in a coco coir (washed, buffered with calmag 500 ppm), watered with T.A FloraCoco until drainage 400ppm. Lighting 60W, up to lamp 40cm. Temperature during the day is 32C at night 24C. I just want to finish this :(

I don't think you buffered it properly. you have to soak it for 8 hours 2 times over. 100-150ppm Ca maybe 75-100 Mg? definitely not anythign that adds up to 500ppm. Its about replacing the Na+ and some K+ bonded at CES. it's about reachign equilibrium with what you intend to feed so that the ions going in and out of those CES are in proper proportion, i.e. equilibrium - so it doesn't leach anything or add anything to your fertilizer. Anyway, i don't think you accomplised that. It's too hot in there, not to mention the coco is dry AF. for 60w, it look like there is no internode, so too much light too early.. you may need new strategies across the board.

32c and 24c at night is too hot. Vent the air and pull in cool air if you can. Also in the seedling stage you shouldn’t fill your medium with lots( if any) nutrients. Wait until two or three nodes and then add maybe a third of what’s recommended slowly building to full doses in the flowering stage. Check out ‘weed in a pot’ and ‘hemp in a pot’ on YouTube.

Don't waste your time growing "maybes".......not all seeds make it and this looks like one of those that will not. Always plant more seeds than you think you will need in case of duds/failures and only grow the best and strongest seedlings.

Looks like a watering issue if you pre loaded your Coco. Did you properly pH it as well?

Your seedling is experiencing heat stress This way it won't develop Temperatures during the seedling stage (the first 2 weeks) should be 22-25 ºC (both during the day and night phases)
