Hi
I started growing 3 seeds 2 months ago pretty much to the day.
I dont have pictures of the seed sprouting because it was just an experiment and i wasn't thinking about it too much. Now they are like children.
A month and a little bit in, i didnt water them for 10 days and they dried out and pretty much all drooped, all looked dead but weren't fully brown. This is my post asking what to do and some helpful answers.
Also has pictures. http://boards.cannabis.com/basic-gro...lp-please.html
Im trying to find out how to attach files on an ipad i am chilling. Theres more coming
it says im not allowed to post attachments?
This is what they looked like after they weren't watered
this is what they looked like when they recovered. this is 1.5 months in approx.
that looks about right..lesson learned
this is what they look like now. 2 months in.
using internet explorer is as painful as having a plant die on you.
HOW I HAVE BEEN GROWING THEM
I started in a tiny pot. Completely on natural sunlight, thats probably like 12 hours a day. Not strong. Even then through glass as near a window.
I think that's why they are moving so much slower than some of the pictures on this forum that other people have posted.
Longer stems although they didn't get much incandescent light. I guess just not much light.
Question 1- can incandescent lights interrupt sleep cycles? should i be bothered about sleep cycles if they are still in veg phase?
Edit:
Well Dang! I posted this in reply to your, "says I can't post attachments message".
Then this posts in the thread where you have posted a bunch of 'em.
Well done!
Meh, the advice still applies though, yah?
If you read the T.O.U. you'll find that you need more posts to be able attach pictures.
"How now, brown tou?" :D
It prevents porn spamming, etc.
It also helps folks learn that hunting for a solution is much more rewarding than "baby-birding", (sittin' on one's ass screaming feed me.)
So, poke around in the FAQs and archives.
Read a few troubleshooting threads so you will know who gives good advice, and who tries to give good advice. :)
I'm in the latter category, but I do try, and occasionally, pass a "pearl".
It's up to you to know the difference, yah?
Aloha,

After they dried out and i posted pictures, someone on the forum told me to replace my teracotta tiny pots for larger plastic (don't dry out as quickly) pots. good advice! when i transferred them i lost some roots which stuck to the pot and some which were hugging the stones at the bottom (i guess because i watered them from below some times).
they are getting 16 hours weak sunlight/ basic daylight at this point of time. through a window, direct sunlight for about 3 hours in the day, but a very bright room with basically all windows.
i bought a bulb. basic CFL which is 10 times the size i thought it would be compared to what i originally had in my head. it's the length of my forearm and the width of calves. it's a 6400 (i think?) which was suggested on the forum as a flowering light, but could support veg.
they now get 16 hours of daylight/ sunlight 5 days a week and two days of the week get 5 hours topped with the CFLs. i put them in the cupboard and give them the CFL light.
