Growin sum Trainwreck, mystery seed frm dub sack..w/PICS, need help!

yea i dont think 1 tsp/gal of gro big would do that to bigpot. First see if overwatering is he prob, which it kind of does look like. Maybee if its not overwatering and lowering the lights doesnt get his leafs standing up, I may think about throwing some mycorrhizal fungi on top of the soil b4 ur next watering. It is used to stimulate root uptake of nutrients, u can get it at ur local indoor gardening store. All u do is sprinkle it on top ur soil b4 u water and it seeps down into the roots. If that doesnt help then im not too sure. Sorry i cant b of more help

Thanks cwesto! yea, i think ima try buy dat fungi. I dont really think overwatering is the problem..Iv bin doin it every 2 days, just foliage misting daily. More pics will b posted tomorrow:thumbsup:

LMAO at those stem props, funny stuff!
OK you have a few problems here.
First: STOP watering those things! The dirt should be so dry you think it's gonna die.;) For under $10 you can get a penetrating moisture meter that will stop you from drowning your babies.
Second: Those flouro lights should be 1" above the tops, they are stretching to reach the light, help them out a little.
Congrats on growing.

One more thing: Don't feed them until they are 4-6 weeks old. They require only a little bit of moisture and plenty of light right now. Feeding them now will cause ALOT of probs you don't need.

Thanks bro, yea, I think they stretched far cuz I left the light kinna high first 5-6 days thinking it'd be bad for em, bein closer straight from sprout. But yea, Ill water a lil less.. Oh, and do u know how much water I should feed for the 3 gallon pot? And I wanna get 4 CFL's. Could u tell me wut kind would be appropriate for adding 2 on each end, rite below the light I have now? Sorry if askin for too much lol. I looked at ur log n figured u know wut ur doin:rastasmoke:

I would guess between 1/4 and 1/2 gallon. I let mine get really dry, then water about 1/3 what I think it needs and leave it for a few minutes wile I tend to others. That gives the water time to absorb into the medium. I water 3 times in a ten minute period. I like to see about 1/2 cup come out the bottom into the drip tray. Before I leave the grow I empty all the drain pans. Don't worry about getting the light too close CFL's will only hurt the plant if it touches it for an extended period of time.
Thanks for stopping by my grow!
Peace:smokin:

sup fellow hayn
dont know how i missed this thread but ill check it out now. from what i read sounds like you gave kahalahydro a visit for supplies or am wrong? a bit pricey there so i order my stuff online.

beside the initial stretching they look ok, nodes are alot closer. pots are a bit to big for my preference but to each his own. i like using tall 1 gallon pots for plants the size of the one in the 3 gallon.

for the cfls you want a kelvin rating of 5000 or higher to veg and 3000 or lower to flower. i got 8 2700k cfls for flowering at walmart and its working out nice.


for watering ill go with spongebobsmokepants and say 1/4 - 1/2 gal if its really dry. i feed a 1/2 gallon every other day to my girls in 5 gallon pots depending on how heavy they are when i pick them up. i water basically just like spongebobsmokepants style except i put them in my bathtub to drain excess water and its really sunny in there when i water them.


cool stem holders, where'd you get um?

irie would that mean 4000k wood work:wtf: for both?

if your gonna get one type get a flowering spectrum bulb. 4000k might work ok but im not sure how much your gonna yield from that spectrum.
