Hi, this is my first grow, and i would need advice.

Setup: 15x15x23, 270W cfl (cold white) runing 24/24 (because the timer is broken), pc cooler, 70% soil 30% sand, temp 20 - 26 C, hum around 70.

I water 2 times a day with 6.5ph water, it dryes very fast this is why i watter 2 times a day, i am using peat pots.

The serelings are almost 1 week old, they had some dificult time when i skipped 1 wattering and they almost died, but now 3 of them recovered, 1 i think is recovering but 1 is almost dead.

If u have sugestions for quicker grow please let me know. Like I said this is my first grow.

what soil are you using? im guessing something full of moss and vermiculite, therefore it doesnt hold water long. even though you water when the soil is dry you may still be over watering.

i think its a little of a waste for a new grower to use expensive genetics while they learn to grow. you could grow bagseeds for free and mess around and do what ever you want to them

pH TOO HIGH

6.5 is just not cool for a baby. I prefer 5.8-6.2 although i use NFT .

I would try lowering the PH slightly and not to change too much . Do not water too much and its best to water only in the morning or at the beginning of the light cycle as the plant will utilise it through the day/light regime.

I am no pro but please see my current grow using ONE PLANT . You might be able to adopt the same method.

HI

im sure it will be fine. I often spoil my plants by watering too much but they recover fine.

Good luck

I am trying this same ak-48 strain I am at day 32 of the flowering cycle I have been running my ph at 5.8 up until last week. now the ph is at 5.9 The bud are looking awsome very tight and the resiny I use a hydo setup in rockwool with a 600 watt hps I run about 1.6 ppm on the co2 and I gas them three times a day. it has been working out good I also found that this strain can clone very easy. I have 12 plants and only bought one fem seed.
