hey thanx. im watering them with a bit of miracle grow. and the runt thing is the best opinion iv had since i got on this website. and how ofter do i water them with just normal water. ones in a 15 litre pot and the bigger one is in a 25 litre pot. we havent done anything to the soil just soil and potting mix. its worked for other people i know
Well i only ever do sip watering.
This means that you have to do more work and pay more attention to the plant but it leaves more oxygen in the soil and prevents nutes from being washed away from the roots.
All i do is pour water as the plant appears to need it around the main stem of the plant,i only give the plant a really good soak every 2-3 weeks depending on what stage the plant is in.
I water less when they are in flower.
If you are struggling with knowing when to water and when not to buy yourself a cheap moisture meter and that will tell you when its needed for sure.
Miracle grow can be a bit high in nitrogen during flowering for cannabis imo.
You would be better off buying a cheap Nitrogen crystal mix from your local garden centre for vegetative times and the same but of phosphorus and adding some potash or bone meal to the mix.
It would be easier and cheaper for you to buy a small bottle of trusted cannabis liquid nutrients though that are tailor made for veg/flower times.
There is a guy at
POT-TV: Growing Down Under with the Mighty KOG called KOG and he is an outdoor australian grower who is very well respected and knowledgable.
Watching his grow shows at the above link will help you out a lot with outdoor aussie grows.
The shows are great and are well informative and entertaining where ever you live though.
Best of luck
Also of note that the small brown marking on the tip of your newly sprouted seeds leaf would have been just where the leaf grows more quickly than the inner lining of the seeds shell and wraps itself tightly around the tip of the leaf where it has gone hard and dead yet the leaf still grows inside.
Its not really of any concern and whenever i see it happen to any of my own i simply flip them off carefully with a razor blade.
