Hey everybody this is my first grow. Im only growing 1 single plant in a closet with no knowledge of what it is because of being in a weedbag.

Setup;

- 2 cfls 6500k on 24hr
- soil with no nutrients yet added
- fan blowing for circulation

I have some pics from day 10 till day 15, today is day 16. I am counting my days from when it germinated.

Hi it week 3! Just 2 ago I transplanted because of the roots starting to peak out the bottom.

Soon im going to fertilize with this orchid fertilizer 25-10-10, It said it was for its certain type but i got it for the nutrient variation.

Please comment and tell me how its doing :) :peace:

Day 23! AND MAN! has it ever grown in last 2 days! :clap::leaf:

The new pot and high grade soil must be the reason after just changing it a couple days ago.

I Have my five leafer!!

Or for all i know it is growing slow for this stage and im just that big of a noob, please give some comments. What do you think?

Thanks for that, really helped. If the leaf that drooped wont heal itself should I prune it. Would growth start from a cut where the leaf just starts?
plus rep to ya :D

Rule of thumb for watering is when the plant needs it.
If the first 2in of soil are dry, it needs water.

No do not prune any leaves..especially with that small plant

Your on week 3 and its that small? Check the ph level of your soil, that might be your problem.
looks like its to acidic

you need to get PH test strips or a test kit to test the acidity of the water, before you just go raising the PH

test the water and the runoff(runoff PH is more important when your using nutes)

do you let your water sit for atleast a day? this lowers the PH and lets the chlorine dissipate

you should water when the soil is dry, your plant was def overwatered last week, glad to see its better and growing fast

remember to only use 1/4 strength nutes when you start and use a feeding cycle like "feed water water feed"

Thx yeah Im goin today or tomorrow to get a Ph tester. and yes i let my water sit for at least a day. Is runoff the water that trickles out from the buttom when its watered?

My very first leaves are starting to fall off so Im going to introduce my nutes now very soon at 1/4 the strength and every 3rd watering. They are fast acting 30-10-10.

I also have some dead skin like material pealing from the cannabis main shaft/trunk. Is this normal?

Plus reps :) :bigjoint:

Here is some more pictures till day 26, today (still on 24 hr light)

Yeah sorry i edited it.

I checked my ph and my water im giving it is on the 7.5 side, I couldnt get the runoff checked because my plant isnt big enough to the potsize for there to be enough water that it comes out the drainage holes. Should I just start adding my nutes to make it balance? Im on day 29 and I will give some pictures here tomorrow. Its been growing like a bastard the last few days. My first first pair of leaves are yellow and withering.

:) :) :) :) :weed:

I now have a bubblicious also at 4 days (from germination) Its feminized so I will be expecting this one to give me some medical ganja.

From now on I will call my month old cannabis "Mystery Jane" and the Bubblicious.............Bubblicious.

August 19 I used fertilizer for the first time with 1/4 strength on Mystery Jane. Using 25-10-10.

Coments and good advice please! plus rep ++

It is starting to come around. I wish I could give you more help. I'm growing outdoors and know nothing about indoors. I can tell you that they are staring to look good though. Subscribed and will continue to monitor.
