is this what the plants look like?

[hotnorthernguy]

so can anyone tell me if this is what my plants should look like when they are just starting to grow?

[hotnorthernguy]

please let me know ok folks?

[Psycho4Bud]

The babies look fine!

Good luck with the grow!:thumbsup:

[hotnorthernguy]

Thanx for the info and hopefully it will turn out to be great?

[SpiritLevel]

very good, keep updating ur thread

[Weed4Life]

Yeah, are those grown ouside?

[UnitedParcelSecrets]

I'd worry that they're stretching already ... BUT ... I don't even have sprouts yet.

[stinkyattic]

That soil looks awful. The pics may not be showing it real well, but it looks clayey and wet. You are going to be unhappy with your results if you don't get your dirt situation straightened out.

[hotnorthernguy]

no the earth is fresh potting soil....I just watered it 5minutes before took the pics...and these are grown indoors...

[Weed4Life]

Got my beans from Gypsy yesterday.!!!!! How close is the light from the sprouts?

[stinkyattic]

no the earth is fresh potting soil....I just watered it 5minutes before took the pics...and these are grown indoors...
phew!

[hotnorthernguy]

ok guys you've seen my plants now....so now I've bought a Plant Starter Fertilizer called PlantProd and it's 10-52-10.....should I water my plants now with that and then again in 2weeks like the bottle say's? or is it still to early to use this product?

[busteruk7]

no ferts for atleast 3 weeks
cheers all :)

[BLaQLiGhT]

The piCs are not that clear so I cant really see the plant that well. Does your plant have 2 little leaves growing in the middle of the little sprout leaves? I only see the sprout leaves that will only fall off later into growth :o ...

[hotnorthernguy]

OK Guys and Gals....you all seen my pics of my plants starting to grow and now it's been exactly 1 week since the old pics so here are the new pics...now since I'm new to growing and this is my first time...can anyone tell me if I have 2 different plant types growing or are these just different sexes of the plants? and which is which between male and female plants?...sorry for being such a newbie at this........LOL and let me know if I'm going on the right trach with my plants......Thanks Gang

[Budd420]

I've started before but they always died, that doesnt look like any sprout i've ever seen, the one the left that is, the one the right looks like its normal.

[hotnorthernguy]

How long have u been growing Budd420?....the one on the left look's more like bud to me then the one on the right but like I said I'm new at this and I'm just wondering if it's all doing good?

[bud breath420]

lol dude im not sure your growing pot... those first 2 leafs look like they are weed but your second look like something i have growing in my front yard!! an update when they get a few more leafys and i could tell you for sure. But as it is that may be pot it may not... btw i could be wrong and they are getting their 3rd or 4th set of leafs first ....

[bud breath420]

when i said that i ment your second pic looks like weed but your first looks wierd

[stinkyattic]

Sorry folks, none of those is cannabis. The one on the left looks like a hollyhock, the next one could be a 'mater, the last looks like who-all knows what. But time to start over with seeds you know for sure are shrek.

[hotnorthernguy]

well I don't know what to say now?....I got these seeds right from Buddy's plants when he cultivated his grow?....are u sure they're not pot plants?

[iwantFUEGO]

i was looking to see if i have any pics of sprouts but i dont...

stinky is right, i dont know where you got those seeds, but you definately did not pick them off of a cnnabis plant. Unless your friend has bred the most amazing strain ever for being totally undetectable.

The first pic is definately not one. Cannabis doesn't grow five fingered leaves for their first leaf, besides its only on one side.

The second pic isn't either because it has 2 too many baby leaves (cannabis only grows 1 pair).

That sucks dude... get some better seeds and start over...
or better yet ask around for clones.
good luck
Peace

[hotnorthernguy]

well what I'll do is keep growing them to see what it is because I'm very curious to know what kind of plant they are now?......LOL....can't be anything from the soil?....I bought the soil from a hardware store in a sealed bag of potting soil?.....oh well let's see what will grow then ok Gang?.....LOL

[Dutch Pimp]

Stealth Weed?.....sneaky!! Tell him, to go ahead and let it grow....see if it's a tater.

[hotnorthernguy]

Ok DutchPimp...what exactly do u meen?......I'm new at this....LOL

[OptimusPrime]

Isn't it too late in the year to start an outdoor grow?

[Dutch Pimp]

Ok DutchPimp...what exactly do u meen?......I'm new at this....LOL
Don't look like weed.

[busteruk7]

pictures 1,2,and 4 dont look like weed at all ,well they do just not the kind you are after
they look like random seeds that ya get in bags of soil
ive had one or two grow in a pot with my ganja plants its not uncommon really
just get rid of it if you have ganja growing in the same pot or it will use up the nutrients in the soil making it harder for the ganja plant
cheers all :)

[hotnorthernguy]

Ok here are some more pics I took of those plants that everyone is saying is not ganja?.....are they looking more like ganja now?:rasta:

[Delta9 UK]

Ok here are some more pics I took of those plants that everyone is saying is not ganja?.....are they looking more like ganja now?:rasta:

Afraid not :(

Did you germinate the seeds before putting them in the soil? Or did you plant them straight in?

What might have happened is that the cannabis seeds haven't germinated and you are seeing seeds that were in the soil/compost mix/blown in by the wind etc etc etc.

If you have any more seeds try the paper towel method - wet some kitchen roll/paper towel and place your seeds inside. Keep in a stable cool place and keep them out of the sun. Leave them for 24hrs and then take a look.

The shell of the seed should break open and a small white root will poke out - this way you know the seed has germinated.

You can then pot the seed and will have a small shoot appearing quickly with some luck.

Fresh sprouting cannabis looks like this: http://boards.cannabis.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=78218&d=1154075762

[jamstigator]

Looks like cannabis babies to me.

[iwantFUEGO]

i dunno anymore...

that is weird...

let um go and tak e more pics in a week... i wanna see this.

[Dutch Pimp]

Ruderalis?.....maybe?

[hotnorthernguy]

ok Dutch what the hell is Ruderalis?........lol......like I said I'm a newbie.......lmao

[hotnorthernguy]

yes Delta I did germinate the seeds exactly like u mentioned....this is my first grow so I hope everything turn's out great?

[Newbould]

deffinately not weed mate

[hotnorthernguy]

are u sure New?.........some people have changed their thoughts on this subject......I think it is weed?

[Aaron19]

let them grow mate you never know!
if its weed well done and if its not then never mind your seeds are in the soil somewere
i havnt seen plants with those leafes at early age at all but you never know keep posting pics and wellfind out sooner or later

[Chaos]

man thats not weed.....weed goes 1 leaf at a time.....at first it gets 2 circle leaves that follows with 1 leaf that grows inbetween each side...then goes from there....

[CanGro]

man thats not weed.....weed goes 1 leaf at a time.....at first it gets 2 circle leaves that follows with 1 leaf that grows inbetween each side...then goes from there....

I dont want to correct you or anything seeing as im a noob to the growing game, but my m8 who has been growing weed now for 16 years all his little buds started out with 2 leafs.

Id say that is deffo weed. Keep em going.

[hotnorthernguy]

Ok folks the last pics I posted were from yesterday I beleive but see how much the plants have changed since a day?....here are the pics and tell me if I'm on the right track?

[orangeman]

That doesnt look like a marijuana seedling to me. And if it is that is one weird ass formation.

[iwantFUEGO]

baby leaves are too circular... pic 3 and 4 nd definately not.

but definately keep them going... no reason to kill them.
let us check them out in a few days.

peace

[hotnorthernguy]

thanks Fuego.....i think maby it has something to do with the fact that all 4 plants are in the same growing pot?....can that have affect on the look of the plant while growing?

[hotnorthernguy]

should i start using ferts now?....the ferts i have is PlantProd 10-52-10 Plant starter fertelizer?

[sheist]

lmao.. the kid got ripped off.. idk wat da fuc those plants are.. if u outright SURE u smoked those, i'd love to kno how the high was.. here are pics of my seedlings with my 2nd n 3rd batches..

[CanGro]

My to seedlings look like that, ill post pics l8r when ive taken them and mine came straight from my weed.

[hotnorthernguy]

Hey Sheist.....no offence but I'm not a kid......I'm 38 and like I said I'm new to growing so back off with the insults...I come on here for suggestions and help.not to be put down and stomped on by people like u....so if u have nothing nice to say then keep it too yourself.....

[BCBUDBOY]

None of them look like any cannabis I have ever seen,I can tell you that often potting soil from a store can have weed seeds.I often grow these mistakes just to see what they are.They cook it to kill the wild seeds if they are lazy or put to much in the oven then it is not 100% effective. Good Luck in the future.

BCBUDBOY

[CanGro]

This is just getting annoying, do any of you know what seedlings look like in the early stages or did you just skip that bit and waited till they were about 3 inch or so.

They are indeed weed plants and they look pritty good to me. Both my seedlings have sprouted oh and guess what they both started with two circular leafs. I know for deffinate that mine are weed, seeing as both my seeds came from my weed.

Stop putting the guy down and telling him that it aint weed cause it deffinetly is.

Keep up the good work.

[psychocat]

go with them man since it's far too soon to say with certainty what they are the only way you will find out is to stick with them.
I have had mutated plants before , sprouts with 3 leaves, 5 leaves and even one leaf, if you sourced them from a grower you trust then trust a little more and all will be revealed.
They are plants and variation in growth is normal it's not like they are manufactured to a uniform size and shape in some factory somewhere.

[psychocat]

Too many botanists spoil the crop

[Justin.J]

This is like one of those half hour mystry shows on the superstation.

[CanGro]

Look at my post and you will see alot of grow threads. THEY ARE NOT REAL CANNABIS SPROUTS. Pull them out and start again.

They look almost identical to mine, so what ur saying is that mine arnt ether and i know full well that they are.

[jamstigator]

Post some more pics as the days go on. Looks like my mostly-indica sprouts. I'm holding firm with the "yes it's pot" crowd, personally. ;)

[hotnorthernguy]

ok I woke up this morning and what a big change in the plants......here are the pics folks....hope I'm doing this right?

[chisme]

LMAO

[hotnorthernguy]

what's so funny chisme?

[psychocat]

Looks fine man

[orangeman]

what's so funny chisme?

Your plant is whats funny :p. I dunno man, in a way it looks like a seedling then it doesnt. I never seen a true marijuana seedling looking like that. Even Blueberry looks normal in the early seedling stage. :confused:

[cannabis campbell]

Lmaoo

[orangeman]

Sorry man, even if people disagree with me. I've finally come to the conclusion that what you are taking pictures of is nothing related to marijuana. You either misplaced where you planted your seed or the seed wasnt marijuana in the first place.

[hotnorthernguy]

oh well.....tires of being treated like an idiot and laughed at I won't be posting or growing anymore......Thanks....wish u all the best if your plants start growing like mine did and u post pics and u get rediculed for posting something u know is weed?.....bye

[orangeman]

Dude just ignore them. The only people that laughed at you were idiots and people who think they know it all about growing and laugh at some one that asks a simple question or makes a mistake. I've seen it before with hacking, growing and gaming. Just stuck up arrogant people that think they know it all. I didnt laugh at you but it did seem sorta funny that you posted a picture of something that looked like a young seedling at first and then it grew into something very different :p. Dont be discouraged, just read more and give it another try.

[chisme]

tater = potatoe lmao

yeah let it grow anyways then u can sell its "flowers" back to the guy who gave you so called "weed seeds" also does it not piss you off abit this guy scamemd you?

[psychocat]

Don't be put off man , most of the people who think it's fun to take the piss are probably spotty little irks just out of puberty.
At the stage your plants are at I would wait and see.
As for all those that are so sure ,how long have you had a botany degree?

[IPokeSmot]

Sorry to burst your bubble but there was a thread on totse.com in the drug section about your thread here. Everyone was laughing at you... This is my first post, sorry I just had to tell you.

[chisme]

ok ok you guys theres a frienedly joke and then theres just being rude for no reason.....northenguy they arnt canna....u tried..u may not have won...but learn from it mate.

and like i say let it grow then sell the whole crop of whatever it is..to the prick who sold you the seeds....if hes soo sure (enotugh to sell) the seeds as cannabis he wont mind taking the final product from you.....

[Sabron]

I suggest you let them grow just to make sure if they weed or not.. Maintain them and such.. But in the meantime just get more seeds and plant them while those grow..but they dont look like weed to me..

[hotnorthernguy]

more pics coming up.....let me know but don't be rude

[hotnorthernguy]

hope u guys can see them clearly?

[psychocat]

once again I say go with them, the "experts" who are so sure they aren't should take into account that they are not experts at all.
The only person who's advice I would follow is that of someone with decades of experience and a botany degree, how many of those here have those qualifications?

[CanGro]

looking at the piccys that uve supplied so far id say that 3 are a deffo for can, but im not 2 sure about the other 2 though. These do look a bit like randem seeds. But keep up with it and lets see where these babys go.

[jamstigator]

I still can't be sure. Here's a pic of a sprout which I am absolutely sure of though, as a basis for comparison.

[CanGro]

I goto say ive seen a lot of the sprouts on here and comparing them to how mine look, they do look very short and small as mine are currently 1 week old and are pritty tall.

But as ive said before, the way the leafs are forming are almost idencticle to what mine. So as im in no doubts to what they are. Keep up the good work and time will tell.

Agreed.

The height of seedlings varies but sometimes the plants can be "stretched" by having the light source too far away from the plants.

[MargaretRiverGrower]

Post more photos of the bays well tell ya if theyre pot or not.

[Th3 sand m4n]

come on northern guy give it up people are laughing at you because you are being stuborn and will not listen to the facts people on here have been growing for years and can safely tell you its not marijuana its not your fault its an honest mistake just start over with some real marijuana seeds. my guess as to what happend is that you planted Real marijuana seeds and they never grew and instead some garden weed got blown in to the pot and started growing, go buy some midgrade marijuana with seeds or order seeds off of a seed bank highgrade-seeds.com is a great place to start off. good luck and please take the advice from some one who has been growing for 6 years.

[hotnorthernguy]

I'm not being stubborn....I have some people telling it's not pot and then some people telling me it is?.....so what the hell am I suppose to do as a first time grower?...who do I listen to?... the people laughing at me and saying it isn't weed?...or the people saying it is weed?...or are they just saying that they are weed plants just to laugh at me?....or are the ones telling me that they aren't weed plants just want to see me throw away perfectly good weed palnts and then laugh at me?.....people sure do know how to discourage a person????????

HotNorthernGuy... I am so sorry this basic request for info-advice has gotten so out of hand. It has turned into a conflict of opinions. Everyone has one, based on what we see. We could be wrong or right, take your pick.

[hotnorthernguy]

Well Dutch...to tell u the truth it's not fun being the laughing stock of a message board when trying to do something new and trying to get true sound advice and all u get is laughed at for trying?....I don't even know what to say or think anymore?

[Dutch Pimp]

Don't blame you one bit. If you slam the door or ride this one out. BUT riding it out, means continued photos until somebody knows, beyond doubt.

[Dutch Pimp]

P.S. ...beyond doubt ...is a level, I have never achieved.

[hotnorthernguy]

more pics for u guys to laugh at............

[jamstigator]

I'm not laughing or trying to discourage you. If others are, well, all you can really do is give 'em a ,,|,, and ignore 'em. I'd keep the plants going. I mean, what's it gonna cost you to grow 'em more, some water? Worst case, you have some house plants. Pics 1 and 5 look the most like cannabis, but none of them look like anything I have grown myself. That doesn't mean much though, since I've grown at most 1 percent of the strains out there and I doubt many people in the world have seen *all* the possible strains.

[MidnightToker54]

Jamstigator makes a good point - you have nothing to lose, so don't sweat it.

Cannabis seeds are quite easy to find and grow. So just start a new pot with some new seeds, and also keep what you have growing there. Kick back, smoke a joint and take some more pictures in a week or two. :)

[Reverse G.B.]

I agree with jamstigator. There is no harm in growing them. I know there are many arrogant people posting rude comments to you but hey ignore them. Aren't you curious, even if it's not cannabis, what in the hell it is? You have to continue growing them. I'm dieing to know what kind of plant that is. And anyway, a little more O2 in your house never hurt anything. :thumbsup:

[Reverse G.B.]

Look at shaggy's mutants http://boards.cannabis.com/showthread.php?t=75668. So hey, point is, there is still a chance.

[CanGro]

Take no notice of the people who are taking the piss, they most likely have fucked up everyone of there grows and are so ashamed to admit it they take the piss out of someone else.

Just stick with it and see where they go and with all the shit that some people are giving you, take with a pinch of sault. You never know you might have discovered a new strain of ganja.

But keep those picks comming.

[psychocat]

[hotnorthernguy]

not giving up just yet

[NightProwler]

What did the seeds look like?
if your sure they were marijuana seeds, i dont see why it couldnt be marijuana. its true that i've never seen a sprout like any of those, but im sure tehres some weird strains.. and i heard blueberry-weed grows in a very weird fasion. definitly keep growing them and also definitly keep posting pictures, im interested to see the outcome of these plants. im sorry to hear some people were giving you a hard time on here, but its happned to me too.. heres a pic of some pot seeds. did they look anything like these?

[hotnorthernguy]

more pics

[hotnorthernguy]

i'm going to be seperating the plants into different pots and soil individually today and see what happen's?

[orangeman]

It still looks strange but it's starting to look more like a marijuana seedling than those pictures before :p. And NightProwler correct me if i'm wrong but I dont think Blueberry grows strange that early in life, I thought they started lookin weird when the true leaves starting coming in and not just the embryo leaves or the first sphere-like leaves.

[scamp]

they look fine but your soil looks like a mess, maby its just the pics, dont worry about fertilizer for about 3-4 weeks or until you have 2 or 3 sets of leaves on the plant and even then take it easy, dont over do it.

[mendokid]

you only have one MJ plant as I can see

[Justin.J]

Bottom right one is I think then aghain i'm A noob to growing my self but iv'e seen A few young plants and they look similar too the bottom right man, I don't think the others are though but one plant will still get A fairly good yeild for personal use as far as i'm concerned, Good luck!

[hotnorthernguy]

well guys I transplanted the four plants into their own pot with peet moss and they seem to be doing well?...I'll take pics in a few days to see how they are doing and to show u how they are growing also....chow for now....

[hotnorthernguy]

Well guys here's my new setup with those plants....they each have their own pot and I'm using peetmoss and a different light also....hope u like it?:D :thumbsup: :rasta: :pimp: :smokin:

[Justin.J]

What kina bulb is that?

[jamstigator]

If that's an incandescent you need to replace that bulb with a cool white CFL (6500K), or several of them. Walmart sells cheapie socket-to-bulb converters and splitters. Same aisle as extension cords at my WalMart.

[NightProwler]

And NightProwler correct me if i'm wrong but I dont think Blueberry grows strange that early in life, I thought they started lookin weird when the true leaves starting coming in and not just the embryo leaves or the first sphere-like leaves.
no, your probly right

[hotnorthernguy]

the bulb is a 60watts halogene with 1000 light output.....working great so far....I've seen a change in my plants already....even the peetmoss made a big difference.....I'll post new pics in a few days to show u guys....when should I start using my ferts?

[jamstigator]

Halogen lamps put out more heat than light that plants can use. I'd get some CFLs - a lot more plant-useable light for the electricity. One 42-watt CFL puts out like 2000 lumens, so double the light while using less electricity.

[hotnorthernguy]

:dance: Ok I changed my lightbulb and here's what my plants look like in the Peat Moss now......am I doing better?

[Th3 sand m4n]

its not marijuana.......

[orangeman]

:dance: Ok I changed my lightbulb and here's what my plants look like in the Peat Moss now......am I doing better?

Man those still look really strange, i'm skeptical. You can continue that grow but what I really recommend you do is go buy some weed with seeds in it or go buy some seeds or ask a grower for some seeds. Make sure they look like THIS (http://64.17.187.158/images/marijuana%20seeds.jpg). I am saying this because I wouldnt want you wasting your time. When the guy gave you your seeds did he say they were weed seeds or marijuana seeds, he could've tried to be funny because here is a "weed" seedling that has nothing to do with marijuana, it's just an annoying plant and looks alot like yours :p

http://www.weedbiology.uckac.edu/kacspecies/yellowstarthistle.jpg

[Th3 sand m4n]

theres a big difference between this [attachment=o80920]and this [attachment=o80921]

[orangeman]

theres a big difference between this [attachment=o80920]and this [attachment=o80921]

Yeah, a big difference. Also marijuana is a very fast growing plant. That what you have from the start up until now doesnt seem to making a speedy progress like marijuana does :p.

[jamstigator]

I think you can safely rule out the plants with multiple sets of little round leaves; those aren't cannabis. The one(s) with the serrated leaves, I'd let them go a little longer, but even those are looking doubtful at this point.

[NightProwler]

hotnrthernguy, i saw one of those plants your growing today. it was in the same pot that my marijuana plant is growing in. lol, funny coincidence.

[stinkyattic]

Couple tips:
The placement of your light is very bad. It will cause the seedling to stretch sideways. You need lighting coming from above, CFLs almost touching the tops of the seedlings.

You buried the seedlings too deep when you transplanted. The leaves should not be touching the soil=potential for rot.

Peat moss is too acidic. Unless you treated it with lime already and know the pH is correct, stay away from the stuff.

And lastly, those weren't cannabis when they sprouted and they still aren't.

Every one has the wrong cotyledon formation. Some are too oblong, and the seedling you have with little round cotyledons, those are on petioles, whereas cannabis cotyledons have no visible stems. The plant with the serrated edges STILL looks like a hollyhock to me- was the seed sort of flattened looking?

Anyway this is just getting silly. Look at Sandman's pic. The cotyledons should be round and plump, on no stems. The first adult leaves should be long, pointed, serrated, and single, on short petioles. The second adult leaves can be either single or triple, depending on if your plant is healthy. The next set will be 5.

But keep on growing the tagalong seeds that came in your soil if you feel like it. I'm not laughing, promise. This is just getting kind of sad.

[Dutch Pimp]

You delivery bad news ....like a heat-seeking missile. That's the way I like my bad news.
