The 12-12 From Seed Thread

[grapesnowcone]

hey guys. well it has been like 4 weeks. maybe 3. i lost count. i am sure it has been 4. My plants are still tiny under 12/12 in the sun. I have a fast bud autoflower growing and it looks like white hairs are forming on top. It is so damn small, how is that possible lol.. the og kush in the red container not looking so bad. and the biggest one the maui waui, the bottom leaves turned yellow and died off. i think the maui is hungry for food. i keep feeding her. from seeing these pics, can you guys tell me if they are in good shape or if i am screwed. thanks

Put it under some lights.. It looks sad. I'd say any amount of light would be better than what its getting now.. looks more like 2 weeks, than 4..

thanks, i have no room inside. they are out in the hot Caribbean sun. for roughly 12 hours. think the soil is crap. the hydrp shop is very far off for me to get some foxfarms.. i never thought they would flower this small.

Those autos can flower SUPER-fast. I have one going outside and it hit full puberty with apical flowering before three nodes! Here she is at 3 nodes...

My semi-educated wild guess at your plant's problem would be water-logged soil/root-rot and/or over-feeding possibly ? Do you have access to any other kind of potting soil ? If not then poke some more holes in the bottoms and sides of the pots, then flush the shit out of them(literally)with distilled or purified water. After it dries out enough that you can notice the lightness of the pots, flush again.

Anyway, pretty hard to nail the problem through the interwebs but that's my contribution fwiw lol.

Oh shit I almost forgot, do you get a lot of salt air where your plants are?

edit: ps, look up getawaymountain in the outdoor forum, he grows in coastal regions a lot.

Hey bro..... what on earth did u plant those in? It looks like wood chips!! are they solid genetics?

they're salvage able but make sure you get them in some fox farm or some good dirt from your hydro store immediately!

@ day 78 from seed, She still looking good, I reckon that I have another 3 to 4 weeks left with her. Today I decided to give her a nice flush, after her flush I am going to set her ec @ 1.0 and ph @ 5.9.

Thanks Bluejeans! I'm going to try this recipe with my used coco on some outside plants.

My only question is about the bat guano- I've noticed that the N-P-K of the guano varies widely depending on where the guano is from. Any preference on the type of guano?

I am not at home right now so I can't tell you which one I'm using... I know that it was high in N, but I don't remember the ratios or the brand. It was just the one available at my local grow shop.... I'll check it when I get home and tell you what I'm using. I am pretty new to this so I don't have any specific "preferences" on brands yet.

 

[SmokeYourOwn]

Thanks Bluejeans. I was looking at different guano a while back and was surprised at the variety of NPK ratios. Guess it has to do with the diet of diff bats in diff regions...haha what the hell am I talking about....

 

[SmokeYourOwn]

OK, I can deal with the caterpillars but what about the ghost in my coco??

Theres nothing wrong with some soils from walmart, just buy a bag of perlite to mix with it.

 

[chb444220]

Yeaa I use soil from walmart/home depot/lowes... I use miracle grow moisture control soil. works great. Just grab sum ph down. The ph is alil high. U should give it a try. It works wonders.

 

[crayc]

they have no perlite. so should i feed my fastbud some biobloom since it appears to be flowering. i transplanted the og kush to the soil i got from walmart and threw some compost i have on it. the maui waui is in a 3 gallon container so no point in transplanting that one. the maui waui is looking good now that i have been feeding it nutes. she seems to like lots of nutes.

 

[crayc]

now i see white hairs on the maui waui and the og kush wtf.. does it mean they are flowering... they are too small ugh!

 

[jdmlove]

Crayc They might be pre flowers

Crayc They might be pre flowers

yea so that means since i am at 12/12 they will start to flower soon. they should grow a bit more, no?

 

[roofwayne]

Crayc, they still grow in preflower and first part of flowering.

 

[crayc]

thanks guys,so keep feeding it Nitrogen nutes.
