N.L. and Friuty grow.

Well had to help get the shell off. it was a pain to crack off. but got it. well she is standing stright up and now is looking pretty good.
 
well i got the bc starter kit from the local hydro store. now that i put the nutes in im noticing that the leaves are starting to curl under. how do i counter this? i read that its from over feeding. how do i reverse the affects to keep the plant healthy?

Leaves curling down is from overfeeding so what you should do is remove a gallon or two and replace it with plain, pHed water.

thanks man i ph'ed a half gallon and added it to the 5 gallon bucket seemed to settle it down a little in ph too so thats good. are you familiar with the technoflora recipe for succss mixing chart by chance? anyone for that matter. it says Feed, water, water, feed. so if i do it for 8 weeks ill go through that sequence twice? and by just water they mean just plan ph'ed water?
 
when i change the water tommorow should i increase the amount of nutes to put in from 1/4 to 1/2 or keep it at 1/4 for right now and add more nutes in a week or 2.

Well that shouldn't affect them too much. You should still go with 1/4 strength until they have at least 4 sets of "true" leaves, Not the little round cotyledons cause those are just the inside of the seed.
 
sorry everyone still no digi cam. but its doing pretty good. its on its 5th set of leaves. and is less then 6'' tall. i have hardly no stretchin at all. i think im going to bring it up to about 1/2 strength nutes when i put fresh water. What amount of water should i be using in a 5 gallon bucket if my root system is already down to the bottom of the bucket? i was thinking about 2 2.5 gallons of water max. but anyone else have any ideas to chime in with?
 
and would it be to stressful to sex the plant and then try putting it back into veg? im only doing 1 plant to see how i do with DWC so i dont want to waste alot of time on a male if that is what it turns out to be.
 
well seeing how i am going to like the outcome of DWC i put it into flowering at week 3. just got some realy good seeds from some high grade stuff so :) gonna start 4 and see what i get.
