Joint Doctor's Lowryder#1

[maspino1]

Hey, everyone, it's been so long since I've visited this forum but since I will be needing advice from the pros I will be posting this as a mix between a grow log and a place where I can collect my questions in hopes of receiving answers from first hand experiences.

I am growing 4 Lowryder #1 from the Joint Doctor in beer cups filled with coir. I'm using H2O2 with Pure Blend Pro line of nutes, although I wouldn't use the peroxide together with the nutes because it kills the microorganisms. My lights are currently 2 24W 6500K T5HO and I'm waiting on BG Hydro to ship my 3000K.

So far I received my seeds on the 12th and they are sooo slow growing! I'm thinking because I gave such a great environment to grow a great root system that that's what they are doing, establishing roots but man, the first set of true leaves haven't even really grown in size with the light I'm giving them.

This is what my box looks like with Leroy inside to show perspective on its size. It was actually hard to get him out cuz the sides are so tall and I had to bend over to get him out cuz he wouldn't leave lol.

Perhaps I will let him chill inside later on to provide the CO2...

Oh, right, the reason why I decided to start a thread and collect my questions here is because I wanted to know if at this time seedlings are usually developing their root systems? I don't know what to think because this is so slow, my NL that I grew before just kind of took off right away.

These are the seedlings at 5 days from germination.

Ok, so 2 of my biggest plants have a green mold infestation on the surface of the coir but since they're on both of my bigger seedllings i'm thinking they have something to do with nutrient chelation so should I leave em or spray with some peroxide?

[maspino1]

ok, i had to throw them away. better throw it out than the mold releasing more spores to infect my other seedlings. i think the lesson here is just use peroxide anyway... for everything!!!
