my slow grow

ok heres what i got so far im trying to grow auto ak/auto blueberry from lowlife "attitude" i planted them in soil after they germed for 2 days.that was on 3/03/09 and today 3/10/09 see pics...is this slow growth for an auto or normal.. im using a mix of cfl's for lighting 2, 23 watt daylights one unknown small daylight cfl 2, 26 watt soft whites and one 42 watt soft wihite..and a fan on low..soil is jiffy seed starting mix wich im using for entire grow...added bone meal before planting 1-10-0 n-p-k.using regular tap water "24hr stand still"havent waterd in 2 days because in middle of the 2 gallon pots the soil is still moist...would it matter that when i water mainly all the water goes in the middle of the pot???curious about that..i have no temp readings but area is very comftorable 60-70 f....no clue about ph and all that stuff cant find any at wal-mart...umm anything else that needs to be known please ask me although i think i coverd the baisics of everything....is baisics a word...wow im shot but yeah any info would be good...

Hey guy, nice to see them poppin' up. First thing i noticed, you should definitely put them into smaller pots. I don't know if i'd go dixie cup small, but thats what i usually start in. the plants grow better when the pot fits their size, and when they get too big for it, transplant to somthing a bit bigger. i'm not sure on the exact number, but you should transplant like 3-4 times during a grow...you'd better look that up though lol. and i wouldn't worry about pH at the moment, i've been growing my plants for a few months now without knowing. i'm not saying ignore it at all, i'm stupid for ignoring mine, but right now that jiffy mix should be right fine for those seedlings. if you do decide to put em into a solo-cup or somthing, remember to poke holes in the bottom for drainage. you might need more light too...i'm running like 14 cfl's on my 2 plants. you may not need em now, but definitely when they start getting bigger. sorry i can't be more help, i'm pretty new to growing myself, still on the first and just starting my new clones in flower for a SOG, but if you have any questions i'll try my hardest to help you out, as will the rest of the community here! keep on keepin on guy.

thanks for info but these are autos i heard its better off to start in the same pot through out entire grow 2months and maybe 3 weeks...as they dont get big.. i will ad more lights as needed...

I apologize, as i was not aware that auto-flowering plants were to be cared for that way. dang, try and help you out and i end up learning something myself! lol. well good luck on those anyway, maybe ill read up on auto's and be back:thumbsup:

yeah i read it somewheres but there are many opinions on it but i just put the seedling in its final home...

I'm sorry for assuming you were brand new to this, i didn't look at your post count, which tells me that you read enough threads to know as much, if not more, than i do about things pertaining to this particular form of cultivation lol. this isnt your very first grow is it? maybe second or third?

1st time indoors prefer outdoors though...this grow im hoping to get male and female plants out off the 3 to make babies..for outdoor in a few weeks.. but these things arent growing as i exspected....:(

ok so i got one male one female one unknown but looking female...now my question is do i leave the male in the whole time this round im trying to get like 50-100 seeds but would still like some smoke..if the other one turns out to be female im just going to throw her outside since it would be the 1st week of april or so, i think she will do fine i dont have enough room :(................mold may be a problem......

if i keep the male in the whole time will the female still bud out...im thinking once the female starts to actually throw out more hairs"just has preflowers"right now,i will let the male stay in for about 1-3 weeks then remove and kill....and enough pollen should have been thrown out to make enough seeds at least 50???? this is only being done once indoors and wont do indoor again for vwery long time....i cant move the male its gotta stay where it is..same with the female...and since im doing seeds how long does it take for them to grow and ripen.... these wer planted on the 3rd of march,male showed bout 2 weeks ago female 4 days ago with like 7 hairs total2 day,male has bundles of closed sacs.......umm nothing more to say no need 4 pics using cfl's mixed wattage but good over-all.....any help would be good tia ppl
