Oh nice my first grow I used the fabric pots. Do you recommend those over the tradition homedepot 1gal plastic buckets ?
I've never used plastic pots, but I hear you want them to be bigger than fabric pots. I wouldn't suggest coco cubes. They are hard to hand water and the coco is usually too compacted. I started buying Canna Coco and nursey pots to make my own. I'm using dutch leech trays as saucers this time, which are around 6" wide. So I'm using the 9x9" pots which are about 5.5" when filled.
They should be getting taller at a faster rate at this point.. I don't see flowers forming up top, so I'm assuming you have more stretch ahead. Just means they will get taller. I would also limit the visits during lights out time, esspecially in flower. I would count flower starting time when pistils start to huddle up in the bud sites. (However that's just how I look at it, not everyone does the same)
Ok, Thank you for the advice. I’ll wait till I’m more experience to try the nursery bags. Looks similar to my fabric pot but it was a 5gal and I grew her outside. Nice buds.
At least you have a quick wit.
I think trimming the fan leaves twice within a week probably didn’t help her growth. Ok taller is good. Definitely going to stop looking at her while she sleeps. I’ve read people don’t start flower till 5 days after setting the lights to 12/12. But I’ll write down the day it grows pistols. I have a notes with all the dates of plant,water veg etc.
Hey I’m a total noob too lol. We all start somewhere.This was Hotwired's thread. He's a total noob. Thread is 10 years old. I think he was banned
Momma always told me this big mouf would get me in trouble some day .lol
I'd hit their website. I just checked, and it & looks like it should help. You may be under feeding.. which is why growth may be a little slowed down... but a lot of other variables come into play as well. Environment, light intensity at the canopy, leaf temps, root health and more. Growing isn't so easy at first.. but you're documenting & that's a good thing to fall back on "Notes" You can find the most experienced answers to a lot of questions within the threads here on RIU. Type out the issues in the search tab, and you will see the threads related to that. Lots of guys may come give you shit if they have to tell you something they helped out with in a thread here back in 2011 lol I've been growing a little over a year, and I think I've come pretty far from where I started.. check out my progress up until before I started my current run. I have threads on my 3rd & current run linked below the pics if you want to check em out.
I’ll check the site out for sure. I think for environment I got it down. Normally while lights on 75-80 degrees humidity is under 50s. It’s fresh this time of year so everything should be dialed in. I have the light at the top of the tent so 4ft. It’s at 80% to max watts 600 led. I’ve read people wait to give it that 20% in the last weeks of flower.
this was my first grow. Half outdoor half indoor. Was running some cheap bulb on her but I got over an ounce . Do you recommend the mesh pots I see you use them. 5gal ? I think that’s the same mesh pots I have stashed in my garage. Man your plants where okay in your tent? I feel like I could only fit 1 5gal in my tent 2 but all squished.
