First Time Grow Help
JiminyCricketstarted grow question 4 years ago
Hello everyone! This is my first grow. I've had a rough start trying to learn the basics. I'm wondering if my current setup looks okay. I have my five original seeds that sprouted on March 5-9th. I've been feeding GH Trio in mother Earth Coco/perlite mix. Humidity @ 50 Temp @ 72.

Hi @JiminyCricket Nothing to worrie about buddie .Too much wet substrate may be the cause to plant not grow. let the substrate dry well between watering. controls if the substrate is dry by the weight of the pot. when the substrate is dry it becomes very light and when it is very wet the pot becomes very heavy.Temperature ideal 18c-28c. I prefer growing in 18/6. Try keep the humidity at 70% -80% .and only start giving growth fertilizers when the second to real leaves grow. Good luck mate 👍

I would just water them with plain pH adjusted water for the first couple weeks. I see a little nutrient burn and soil usually has enough nutrients to support them through the seedling stage. And be careful of overwatering. Let the soil dry out pretty well on top before watering so the roots can get oxygen. Good luck with your grow!

Don't need any nutrients for the first couple weeks. Looks good, just make sure you let the soil dry out mostly or the roots will start to suffocate. Only water when soil is dry

@JiminyCricket Hi mate hope you are well
Your plants look to be good although one does have a little droopiness to it's leaves which suggests to me that you may be overwatering a little bit
Try to wait until they are 70-80% dry before watering because the young roots are sensitive to suffocation.
Good Luck 👍

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

Feeding right after repotting (coco coir).After repotting an auto flowering plant I get runoff EC of 800, while feeding water has EC 1200.
I guess EC gets diluted (biggest part of coco coir is new).
Should I increase EC of the feeding water?
I see slower growth but it may as well be due to stress of repotting.Setup. Strain - Autoflowering

What is that?Yesterday evening feed 0.5 litre EC 1400 pH 5.9. Runoff was EC 900 pH5.6
Increased light intensity to PPFD 600.
This morning larger upper leaves are in "praying" position, one leaf closer to bottom looks sick.
If it's a light burn, why not on upper leaves?

DeformationHello friends, how are you?
I have a big question about one of my plants. Right after the appearance of the first two pairs of leaves, I noticed it's not doing very well. It's now 15 days old and seems to be starting to flower.

What happens to my autos ? Too much fertilizer ? Nutrient block ?First week I tried the devil and fertilized my autos as little as possible, knowing it was useless... Big mistake.
After that I could see signs of too much fertilizer, i.e. pointed leaves and since then, slow growth with very small leaves. What has happened?

LSTIf you use LST on autoflowers, is there any chance for them to finish later? I had an experience where I did LST on auto and it took more than 15 weeks to finish her cycle. She stressed out a bit, though. And how is it possible that some people achieve 8 weeks veg with autos?Setup. Strain - Autoflowering

Doubt on flowering or male.I had many issues and not sure what's happening with one of the plant that doesn't look to flower like her sisters.
Is it late flowering and will develop (or not) and I have to be patient? is it a male and should cut asap?
I hope the pictures will be enough close to help.
