First Time Grow Help

JiminyCricketstarted grow question 6y 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 👍

Not an auto?Im growing 4 GSC autos from “gardenofgreen” it’s week 8/9 & 3/4 r in the 4th week of flower(looking nice too). The other 1 has yet to start, I had transplanted it 2 days later than the rest as a seedling & to a 2x larger pot. Is it just slow, or maybe a photoperiod seed snuck in?

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?
