Always so dramatic here on RIU lol

1. Guy asks for help

2. Bluntly inform him his light is pants

3. gets defensive

4. Explodes!

5. calms a bit all seems well.

6. Then takes a turn for the worse!


You need thicker skin mate. It takes two people to have an argument.

Take the advice and sieve through the bullshit

Anyone no if there’s something wrong with these 2? Not currently feeding them as there so small but I have read that you need to feed in coco so that could possibly be the problem but I wanted to ask before I did. One of the plants is a little stretched but have put the cfl close so it’s not stretching anymore thank god lol. I do have the feed ready to start but again I’m a little paranoid about doing so right now. The feed is canna coco a and b . I have taken a picture of all 3 but ignore the one that’s not opened up. Newly planted but I guess that one will have this same problem once it opens up. Thanks

How old are they?
Did you buffer your coco?

According to the bag the medium is in, it says it’s already I will take picture to show

 

[Weedgamer90]

Around 1 week old also. The taller one was the first one up then the smaller one came up second. I germinated a third seed which is the one that’s just popped up

 

[MickFoster]

I can tell by the bag it's canna coco.......it's already buffered.
Again.......how old are the seedlings since sprout?

 

[Weedgamer90]

Since sprout about 1 week old. I will admit that’s one thing I’ve not kept track of (I’m a dumb shit and forgot to keep track) I posted a thread on here about my plants Monday last week and the first true leaves were still tiny so I’m guessing a week old or just over

 

[MickFoster]

Was the seed membrane stuck to the leaves on the seedling in the first pic?

 

[Weedgamer90]

2 of them had a small amount left on one of the leaves

 

[Weedgamer90]

I don’t no if you can make it out on these pictures

Different growers do it differently.
I start feeding daily to run off starting around day 3 from sprout.
Here are some 7 day old from sprout seedlings for a comparison.

 

[Weedgamer90]

You see those seem bigger so I must be doing something wrong. I have them in fibre pots and I’m paranoid as hell about run off because even though I’ve got holes in the bottom of the fibre pots there isn’t much run off when I give them water so does that mean I’m not giving enough? I’m to scared to give them to much water lol

Also would you say that the medium I’m using is good for cannabis plants ? And the fertiliser ? Just so I no I’ve got the right stuff to grow them lol canna coco a and b the feed is

You're not growing in soil........coco is drain to waste hydroponics.
Always feed to 20% run off.........not feeding to run off will result in salt build up.
Coco holds 30% oxygen even when saturated.

Canna makes some of the best quality coco and nutrients for coco.

Perfect ! Thank you. Your advice has helped me big time. Could salt build up be the cause of the problems I’m having with them?

No........salt build up occurs over time.

 

[Weedgamer90]

Ok thank you. I will start feeding tomorrow and will post updates. Hopefully things improve and again thank you mate I appreciate it

So I planted her on Jun. 18th. I know late as fuck. But I had no choice as I killed my other after transferring to bigger pot. (Which was successful) but I decided to break up the dirt it was in n destroyed most of my roots. Noob mistake. But my baby now is doin great. She in a 5 gallon pot since day 1 and she grows outdoors. I switched her to 12/12 as I bring her in my dark bathroom every night for bed time. Idk if that's crazy or not but whatever she's my first and it's seemed to work well. She is given 10-10-10 flower food and a little big bud stuff here n there. She is minnesota grown. I think she may have started flowering in the July 20th area. (Not 100% sure). Was hoping for an opinion or 2 as to what stage yall think she in. Thanks.

If I remember correctly I used the word disco somewhere else and the person flipped out too, weird.

Should have used this maybe and wouldn’t offend
