Advices for first grow

[Zivahanmladic]

After many years of enjoying marijuana and enjoying the high, I also decided to try my hand at making my own product.
If there is any more experienced grower that he is willing to give me some advice on how to treat plants, how to recognize sex and when it is time and things like that I would be very grateful. I'm interested in one-month-old plants, is 2 liters enough for everyone every 6-7 days?

You're starting on step 3, my dude. Start at step 1.

What is your equipment and growing space? What do you plan to grow in, etc.?

Seems like there’s a lot for you to learn. I suggest doing some research into the basics of growing a plant.

Are you committed to growing or are you going to grow it on a windowsill?

If so you’ll need a space (grow tent). Lights, carbon filter (unless smell isn’t an issue), extraction, fans, soil, pots, nutrients, jugs, measuring spoons (for nutrients) bottle of calmag cause it’s tradition and of course seeds.

This is a very rough guide for soil growing;

Fill a party cup with soil, plant seed, then spray or water in about a couple of shot glasses. Leave in a warm spot. Ideally under a grow light so photosynthesis can happen immediately.

Day 3 - give it a shot glass of water.

Day 6 - 2 shot glasses

Day 9 - 3…

Day 12 - 4…

Day 15 - Transplant time. Get a big pot 3-5gallon or whatever. Now it’s best to moisten the soil before putting it in the container. I do this by spreading my soil over a plastic sheet then with a watering u can evenly moisten all the soil. You want about 10% water volume of the final pot to properly moisten the soil.

Fill your container and once almost full put another party cup in the middle and fill around it. Remove the empty cup and hey presto, a perfectly sized whole for your plant to go into.

Once transplanted give it about a cup or two of water where the new and old soil meet.

Gove it a good 5-10 days before watering again.

Can up pot again before flower. Depends how big you want your plants to be.

Around the 6 week mark you can start flowering them. Or longer if u want to train them. Do you know how to start the flowering process?

A lot of these answers can be found on basic growing guides and as I continue typing I realise there’s a lot to say.

Have you grown anything before?

Thus, the plants are a month and 6 days old, from the very beginning since the seeds released the germ they were outside because the weather was great all last month except for one windy day. / The plants are currently in some kind of transparent bags with mixed soil from the garden and with soil for flowers. / This is my first grow so I'm looking for soil tips for planting. And I intend to do transplanting when the plants show sex in 20l pots

This is my first grow and the plants are a month and 6 days old, all 4 of which are seen in the answer above. I know the basics, for example I don't know trainings and the like. In fact I had one attempt to grow where the locusts gnawed at an entire stem that was a meter in height without me seeing any indication that it showed sex. currently I water the plants about every 5-6 days with 2 liters of water.

Does it seem to me that I see signs of a female plant or does it just seem to me? The plant marked in the picture

Ahh ok I misunderstood. Do you want to keep growing them outdoors? Transplanting them is gonna be tricky. They are smallish plants for the size of the container. You’ll have loose soil falling everywhere trying to transplant. 20l is a good size for a final container and I would personally not transplant them just now.

Nah that’s a stipule, you’re looking in the right spot. You’ll see a wee growth just above the stipule in the corner of where the branch meets the main stem.

Itll produce a couple of fuzzy white hairs about 1/4 of an inch long. In a couple of weeks time you should see them.

Are you aware that they won’t flower until roughly 12hrs of darkness? Could be late on the season depending on where you are located on planted Earth

I will continue to grow them outside, and I want to transplant them because of the soil, because of the nutrients needed in the flowering phase, if at all, as far as I read and understood from local marijuana forums, in our area (Croatia) depends on the country where it is warmer and the length of the day and night so that in mid-June to the end or beginning of July, on average, you can see the sex of the plant.
I repeat that I give water on average every 6 days and that currently 2 liters of water suits them every 6 days.
The advantage is that the plants are watered at dawn, so it seems that they are looking for less water, namely temperatures have been ranging from 27 degrees to over 30 since May, and below 24-3 or even less at night.
I had a question up at the top how I had a broken stem because it has been out there from the beginning, it cracked in one place and I tied it I don't even know how to explain with what, but it seems to me that it has come back to life and is progressing , a bit slower than the other three but progress is there, but I'm afraid of the consequences if it's a woman.
I am also troubled by the question of how one stalk went in width and height and is full of leaves and only in the past 3 days (post pictures from June 18 and June 21), while the other went in height with fewer leaves on it, and I treat it the same as the other, they get the same dose of light and darkness.
So to say the detail all the plants have been in the ground since May 15, and have started to thrive in the last week and a half since I moved them from home and mixed them with garden soil with vegetables and flower soil with a pH of 6, 5, while I think this country garden pH goes over 7, so I guess I think I made some neutrality with it but again there is a dose of fear.
I don't know if I said but all the seeds are random and that's why I keep an eye on the changes on them and I pray to God that at least one of them is female.
Below I will leave pictures at 3 after midnight on June 18th, a picture from yesterday at night around 10pm and pictures by day on June 18th and from today, for comparison.

EDIT:

All of them today, what are you say? And I talk about this two left.

 

[Lucky Luke]

Lookin good. They need to go into the ground (raised bed is best) or into very large pots. Hope you have water available there.

 

[Zivahanmladic]

I can't stay without water, thank God, my home and river are within 300 meters. As each plant shows its sex, so does transplanting in a 20l pot, if I'm lucky enough to be a female out of 4.

I just found the June 5 videos and hid them for a clean comparison as it looked like nothing


For this plant, I can't even believe that it has reached this stage.

the right image is a screenshot from the video of this left most developed

Actually, when you get into more advanced growing techniques, it's not uncommon for growers to intentionally damage their stems. It's called super cropping. It's advanced because too much damage can hurt or kill, and a rupture in the outer layer of the stem can allow infection. But with the right amount of damage, the healed spot will actually be stronger and better at moving nutrients throughout the plant. If your plant is looking healthy, there's a good chance you may have happened on this by happy accident.

 

[Zivahanmladic]

I uploaded a video that is not publicly available to give me an opinion And it is normal to see that all plants are currently healthy only they were exposed to stress in the beginning
