Hi all, have read the stickies and whilst I believe this is an N deficiency, I'm not sure how to fix it?
Strain: White Widow Auto
Light: was grow indoor for veg, been outdoor since week 4
Medium: Coco 7 litre pot
Nutes: Canna A and B
Days: Week 6 / Day 47 (flowered around week 4)
Thanks to...
Now I’m even more confused. So is feeding a low amount of Canna A+B and Cal Mag, at 0.4-0.9 EC above base EC, a ‘silly food cycle’? So you’re basically recommending a flush of a young plant in coco? That’s exactly the type of thing I have been advised not to do so in curious as to the reasoning...
Thank you @CannaCountry . I have just germinated a planted a White Widow auto last night. If it manages to break the surface then I will be feeding as soon as first set of leaves appear. Next time I will probably pre-soak. I have seen lots of people mention that "they dont need nutes until X...
Thanks Arnski. Though Day 15 from first set of true leaves, more like day 18 from planting of (paper towel) germinated seed into medium.
This is what I have been telling myself, root system is establishing and it will take off soon, though I'm lucky if I have 2 more weeks of veg before it...
I know that transplanting autos is not the recommended thing but as I say in my post, I do not have a choice (time/space/other limitations).
The plant in the picture has not yet been transplanted so I don't see how that can have anything to do with the slow growth I have asked about?
Hi all. First grow now under way thanks to some kind help from these forums.
Indoor grow (for now, maybe moving outside later) 2x3 tent
100W actual output full spectrum LED
Growing in coco 1.5 litre pot (for now)
Temps are 75-79F/24-27C
Humidity 60-70%
Royals Queen Seeds - Easy Bud Autoflower...
That's encouraging really, I seemed to get the sense that most people expect consistent growth of the taproot once it pops, and the uncertain/timely bits were how long for it to crack open initially, and how long to break surface depending on how deep the seed was planted. I will leave them be...
I did opt for number 2.
I now have a PH pen and some litmus strips for testing in worst case scenario if it breaks.
I soaked two seeds in a cup of water for 12 hours last week thinking I was going to germinate them but bailed and took them out, neither showed any sign of opening up. I have now...
MICHI-CAN - Thank you and noted. I am potting up some Canna Coco Natural now, though will be running without perlite this time.
Cannaprentice - Yes I have seen his videos! Though it does initially look more involved than straight liquid nutes and he clearly has a well refined, well funded...
Thank you. I have read and made mental notes on all of it! Just need the PH pen to arrive now... I still havent caved in and gone for an expensive one but $50+ one but perhaps against my better judgement given how easily the last broke.
The next attempt will have to be in 100% coco no perlite...
Thank you again for the replies, I am feeling more reassured.
Cannaprentice - there were no leaves, I think I incorrectly said 'cotyledon'. There was a short stem of about 3cm poking out of the ground with a small white/grey lump on. The lump had the slightest slit in it where leaves would have...
Thank you for taking the time to reply!
Yes I didn't mention my germ method as didn't want to overface with a huge post but my germ attempts so far:
2 seeds in a small LED propagator box in small soil pellets - one seed sprouted within 24h but the batteries in the LED died (I know...) so it...
Hi all. Yet another first time grower here so thank you in advance for your patience.
Briefly my set up is:
2ft x 3ft tent
108w actual output full spectrum led
2x 11 litre fabric pots
Growing in Canna Coco with 25-30% perlite
Will be growing autoflowers (I have a selection of Royal Queen Seeds'...
