what soil are you using and does it have ferts already in it (20-20-20) they need nothing more than plain soil and water for now
im not sure of the name of the soil that i used, i had some really big problems starting out this plant.. its actually almost 3 weeks old but is recovering from bugs eating at the roots..
the first soil i used was contaminated with bugs and when i transplanted to a new pot almost all of the roots had been eatin.. made a great 180 turn around, i havnt used any nutes for now because i have been doing what i can to save the little plant.
a friend of mine started his the same day, his plants are 5 inches tall. thats ok with me though, i plan on using LST (after i do alittle more researching on when an how)
heres growth today, im wondering if maybe the problems the plant had in its germination stage with having to recover from something and regrowing roots is the growth slowed or maybe disfunctional?
Normally the first 2 or 3 weeks are slowest, because its building the root system, so if all the roots were eaten, yes, it'll be slow because its trying to get all its roots back.
Once its repaired its root system is back to normal it'll speed up.
Im no expert, but i think my plant is suffering from lack of nitrogen..
leme know what you think.
u said its 3 weeks old?! how big is that bin its in? if its to small and ur plant has no more room to grow roots it will fuck ya over =\
yeah its older than it looks, the problem was i had some kind of bugs eating at the roots for almost 2 weeks.. its been a month now since this seedling sprouted but just now started to grow because it had to take time to regrow all of its roots..Quote:

I just went out to the store to buy fish emulsions, was wondering if 5-1-1 is to weak or just right? let me know thanks
