Yeah ph was 6.5 when I started but will take your other advice on board when I start then next batch. May try just 2 next time to get it right as I have 6 ww seeds left.

Check out the black marks on the leaves of these 2... Any ideas?

Tbh as I said it's my first time with autos and seems there is a real knack to getting it right... My photos have been fine previously. Now my little babies are showing black marks on the leaves.... Yikes! I think they're beyond help!

Makes sense what you said above... Yeah they've not had a drink today and 3 of the 4 have seemed to picked up so will see how they are in the morning. Cheers.

Would anyone suggest me changing the soil at this stage? Or will this just damage them more?

Im in uk so have plenty of specialty garden centres for soil... Thought I chose a decent one originally but clearly not... Yeah will switch out the vermiculite and add more perlite... We thinking a kind of 70/30 mix? 30 being perlite??? Hadn't planned on using nutes as my last grows have been...

For next time will only use perlite...thanks for the heads up. Will spend a little more time selecting the right soil.

How do you tell it's bad from the colour? It was a basic potting soil mixed with 25% perlite and the same % of vermiculite... They've had a nice breeze on them from the start.... This is a UK grow... Where do find specialist soils like that? As for overwatering..... Had I not been advised to...

They were being watered a small amount at a set time every day however i fear that this was too much for them... and they were getting 200W (blue) envirolite + 300W cfl (dual). The 200W worked perfectly for my last standard grow of Shivas... however, my space is slightly larger this time so I...

What can I say... Stunted growth on my white widow autos. My first time with autos and can't help but thing I've got something drastically wrong.... Check my journal if interested in the history of these plants but tbh, they've just grown so slowly...

I'm really impressed with this but only because my first attempt at growing White Widow Autos is failing miserably... i'm on day 16 and mine are like the slowest growing autos on the planet... I know by the time they start flowering i'll be lucky if they're even 3 inches high and to be honest...

I'd say at least 1.5 metre square and at least the same height.... Consider how much room your lights, reflectors and hanging kits will take up and then judge how big you want your plants... This will depend on the plants of course. Also, you'd need a pretty decent fan or ducting in there to...

Hey all... 12 days since planting my auto white widow fems from pickandmixseeds and I'm concerned about their size. On advice I planted them in their final pots to avoid transplanting but am concerned about their growth rate. See my journal for pics and description of set up, history of the...

Yeah my impatience is getting the best of me. It's only been just a week yesterday so let's see we're they are next Monday... What I did notice today when checking them was the smell from the leaves when touching them gently... They smell amazing! Patience is a virtue. Checking them this evening...

Beautiful... Simply beautiful. Your plants are a work of art! Nice!

Have already switched to 18/6 - thanks for the info - very interesting!

I'm dangerous. Have switched to 18/6... Am concerned about their size at the moment as they're growing but staying really short. Not really growing upwards. We are only a week in but was expecting them to all be a little larger by now.

On a windowsill in which country? I'm in the uk btw! Am monitoring them every 4 hours or so at the moment... They seem small to me for a week and don't seem to be gaining much height. Thoughts?

Won't hurt to switch to 20/4 now will it, and keep that throughout?

I couldn't be giving them more love than I am already really... Pics on my journal of them at 5 days old! Be interested to hear your thoughts...
