Hey guys i got a question ,i am growing chemdog from greenhouse,which is o.g kush x sour diesel and acid from paradise seeds,which is their version of sour deisel.Interestingly they look very similar at this stage so they must legitamatly have sour diesel genetics.
Any way my problem (maybe not a problem) is that they are not gaining height very well.It's 3 weeks from seed and they are 3 inches tall...but are on they're 3 rd proper leaf set.I'ts like they are growing as bushes! the internodes are soo close together.
Sorry no pics,but they are a healthy dark green colour so i think they are ok ,just going to take forever to veg?
The set-up is as follows
Growing medium - potting compost ,perlite and lime.Ph run off 6.5
watering every 3-4 days with tap water ,ph of 7.1
light - 15 inches underneath a 250 hps with duel spectrum bulb.
feeding - tap water e.c of 0.38 ,adding high nitrogen nutes to an e.c of 0.70,no sign of burning at all...feeding every other watering.
Ventilation - none as such ,they are in a closet which is getting opened several times a day,and there is a fan mounted on the wall,timed for coming on for 15 mins going off for 15 mins all day.
Heat - no exact reading but it couldn't be any hotter than 27c
so from my reading on the subject i think this is almost an ideal set up ,maybe except for better extraction.
Is my plant growing slow though? I am a bit concerened because my first grow recently was a bag seed which turned out to be a haze of some sort ,which grew like wildfire and more than quadroupled in size during the stretch.These plants are growing like snails in comparison..but myabe it's ok ,i dunno,thats why i'm asking i guess!
cheers for reading .
