So got a sudden urge to grow a couple plants. I got the seeds from a mid grade bag and all of a sudden had 10 seedlings. I decided to use hydro ponics kit and an LED ufo . The led took 2 weeks to recieve so used 2 flourescent 55w nut bulbs with decent results picture 1,2,3 then switched to LED that is 90w but is supposed to be equavilant to a 400w hp bulb. I used grow cubes and lava rocks and a resevour cycling the water and nutrients. I originally had it in my garage but after i found bugs attacking the area i used some ortho be gone bug spray that killed all my plants!!! Besides the one I planted outside thank god. So i left it out for about another week but it didnt show any growth. I washed out some cubes and lava rocks and transplanted into a bowl which did not have a drain hole. I have been using the grow and micro base in high dilution with tap untill now. I have recently started leaving out the water for 24hrs before using the water but see no difference. My plant is on the shorter side for 4 weeks but its bushy probably due to close (12") position on the LED. I need to get a ph tester but not sure how to balance it if it is off. Any ideas on strain? And growing tips to the NOOB very appreciated. P.s i have recently cleaned out the big hydro unit and transplanted it, in doing so i saw the roots on surface cubes looked much healthier than the bottom roots which looks alittle mushy. Be kind this is a huge learning curve.
