Everyone feel free to post any ideas for growth optimazation. Everyone is welcome to post. Keep in mind this is my first grow ever.

I began germanation of the seeds on 6/8. (snowryder)1 completed and sprouted and was planted on 6/10 and now its on its way to its first leaves(the one on the small pot). the second(pakistan) one sprouted on 6/11 and is barel spreading its cotyledons(the one on the far left). Third(snowryder) one is barely breaking ground. bottom right. The himalayan blue diesel have germinated but yet to break ground.

PH Level of soil: 7.4 and was adjusted to 6.8

What nutrients do you guys reccomend? organic ones.

My snowryder and my pakistan are doing just fine. my other snowryder and blue himalayans have been destroyed by my little chichuahua. so now i only have my snowryder and my pakistananian.

Is the shape its in normal?
It is an autofloweing feminized strain.

No one has any input or can help me? Anyone feel free to post away any criticism, questions, and suggestions are welcome.

or did i post on the wrong section since am new?

newest pics of the girls

The first is of the pakistan. if you look real close you can see 2 little white hairs and the second is the snowryder i dont think its doing so good

looks good for ferts i use foxfarm(hydrostore) and alaska fish fert(lowe's) alternating

am planting on switching to foxfarm next. has better reviews and MG always comes with damned fungus gnats i hate those little f###$%s always flying around and eating my girls.

Im not quite sure but the yellow on those leaves doesn't look to good, im not sure though, im new aswell

I really like that light set up! Good luck using that MG, some people love it, some people hate it, I used it and all my seedlings failed after 2 weeks, all user error. I've used Foxfarm Ocean Forest since and my babies are thriving.

gonna sub and check it out, good luck with your grow

From what I know and have read, if that is yellow, maybe bad angle of picture/lighting, I think it might be a lack of nitrogen if the plant is flowering. Try adding a nitrogen supplement to the soil and see if that changes the coloration, other-wise, keep us posted, I am glad to see first growers like myself taking control of their personal pot

damn that little bitch is looking amzing.. i am looking forawrd to seeing this little ladys do work.

Yea am pretty sure its not good but am assuming their nute burns. They are on MG organic and am adding Dyna-gro nutes to it every other watering. i water every 3 days.

Most people say that the people that dont like the MG organic its because their not using it right but that most be the case with me. Am 90% sure i will get better results using FFOF.

Am sure its not the lighting because cfls are cool to the touch.

What nitrogen supplements do you reccomend me using?

This link has a small little bit of info at the bottom of the page that refers to the ratio, I do warn you as much as it says, it is only temporary for the boost.
Try to look for a constant supply, try asking a more vet member, but that is my 2 cents

Good job man, I like your light fixture. Make sure that is potting soil not garden soil. I ask cause I dont see much perlite. Good luck
