Small questions

[BlissfulMatt]

Hello there! I'm at about week 4 with my first grow ever. I'm enjoying learning about growing more than I thought I would. Right now I'm having a bit of a small issue, and curious about something.





These are my two plants. For some reason the GSC is a lot smaller than my Strawberry. It had a bit of an issue when it was a seedling, but bounced back quickly. Also, what's with the slight clawing? It's not significant, but still noticeable.

Different strains will exhibit different characteristics and growth. Nothing unusual.
Both of your plants look good, just a bit hot on nitrogen.

The clawing is from N tox. You are either feeding too much N or you are using something with a lot of N in it. Might be other issues as well

That Strawberry Cheesecake looks great!

Thanks guys! I'm using Fox Farm Grow Big which has N in it, but since these are autos I'm only using half the recommended amount. Think I should maybe cut it back another half? Also, while I'm here. In fabric pots which drain super quick how often should I water? I've been watering about twice a week, is that fine?

What type of soil are you using? I would probably just give plain water for a bit. They look like they have plenty of nutes.

Don't love them to death.

Ditto to all the above... Clawing is most likely from over feeding (over loving) your girls. Give only h20 for a while (@least a week or two) Watch what they're reactions are. Once they bounce back resume your feeding schedule. Good luck on your first...and remember, nobody's first run turns out perfectly. More so a learning experience

I'm using Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil. And thanks a bunch guys!

FFOF has quite a bit of nutes to start. That's what I started with and used the first 3 grows, before turning it into no-till living soil. I would give plain water like I was saying. I had a feeling you were using FFOF.
