just starting set up

well you're definitely going to want to repot into larger containers my friend (Maybe 1 gallons) during veg the roots grow way faster than the plant so root binding is a problem for small pots...

and idk about which soil to choose for flower, the plants tend to need less N for flower and the nutrient listing are Nitrogen-Phosphorus-Potassium...as in 30-10-10.
Use a soil that isn't real hot so you can add and flush what you need, Idk how much different those two soils are...so I can't really help you there...

LST is cool, just make sure you don't try to do too much too early too fast...wait til those babies get a few more nodes on em to start to work with them

Miracle grow is fine, as long as you keep in mind it already has nutes. Not a great seedling mix. But that's what I started with, and would use it again before using the Country Farms stuff, which definatelly needs better drainage. (perlite)

Google nurseries in your area, or check the yellow pages. If not in-stock, perhaps one will order it for your poor grandma, whose garden demands the very best.

In regards to being dumb...nobody has yet accused you of being dumb, with the exception of you. When you become teachable, your end result will be well-worth the humility.

Patience: Plants grow at a reasonably predictable rate. Not much you'll be able to do, as a newbie (tiz not an insult, but a designation of fact) to accelerate growth. Plus, some techniques (chemicals or hormonal stimulants) can do more harm than good without a working knowledge of what you are doing. Perhaps it's better to learn to grow, then worry about growing fast.

Once trained to supports, hard to wean them off. I always bury the stems (add more soil) up to the cotlydons.

Yeah that's what i was thinking, maybe was gna transplant into ahalf gallon in a few days, then a gallon when i flower since they will doublein size.

I never done LST or SCROG or even toped but idk its worth a shot, i figure ill start when there are 5 nodes, cuz that's where it starts budding.

Still not sure if i should stick with this soil. MG seems to stay moist to long, and id rather under water then over. Ya no? Pluse it would be easier to flush as is.

im not sure about these lights when they are bigger, might have to use both lights for one plant and take 2 out..

Either that ima get a 4 way CFL light connecter and tie it to the top, face the fans more directly on the plants, and w.e else

Works?

More light is great!

And just make sure your plants don't touch the lights...

If you're worried about space and such, you CAN start growing with 12/12 from seed...just FYI

If you do do that though, I would suggest growing a large mom somewhere else, and taking constant clones for Sea Of Green Style 12/12 growing in your cab

I didn't even see ur post rusty nah just i was high and when he said bud ifigured like as in looking down, ya no. My bad about that.

I take no offense i am a newbie and i got this post so ppl like u and sunny can help me out anyway possiable, with your techs. And pointers. Its all appriative.

But yeah i do need to burry them deeper, at least the 2 taller ones.. But im not sure yet because they weill be easier to LST with stretching stems.

Yes more lights is deff what i need! I don't wana grow on 12/12 because i don't have a timer for my lights yet, but as soon as i have that figured out ima probably change it up.

As of SOG that's really what i want to do and just put the mother in the cab next to it , just would be hard bcuzx all i have room to work with is 2 cabs, 1 wich this grows in, 1 necxt to it open.

Iv seen a grow on here were people actually had flowering plants in a shot glass. That is what im semi hopeing for with these cups, exept i know ima pot bigger. Just that idea.

I don't mind if they die, the more i watch them grow the more i learn, the better i become. Also its so easy to grow weed really...its amazing not everyone does it

If you do stick with the soil you have, looks like you'll need more perlite. Especially when in a larger container.

Going from one cup, to 1/2 gallon, to 1 gallon pots is kinda overkill. Going from one (kegger) cup, to 1 gallon is common, tho. (fewer transplants = less needed recovery time for transplant shock)

"you don't mind if they die...? :eek: You learn much more by trying to keep them alive. :thumbsup:

Haven't seen a sucessful shot glass grow yet...is that competition still going on?

I haven't seen a fully flowered nah but im also in bigger cups and w.e so i figure its a better chance. Can u explain switching pots better? Im smokeing afat L and i don't comprehend well my bad

And i do care but i mean its not a huge deal. Its easy to start over. My boy threw a bagseed out one day on his driveway and it grew in a crack giving him like a quearter, its not hard to grow some weed as long as u got everything u need i guess.. Right?


Hit me back

1/4 oz. of cannabis, from a crack in his driveway? Hardly likely, unless it was 1/4 oz of stems, with a leaf or two.

At some point you'll have to get familiar with the search function on this website. Hit us back:

A) after you've looked-up transplanting.

B) when you are willing to start showing you are putting as much work (and research) into your grow as we seem to be.

C) when you can comprehend the replies, lol.

:jointsmile:

haha my bad dude i was blazed erlier. Ya ik what u mean, transplanting is stress full. So i think ima just transplant in 5 weeks when i go to 12/12

Other then that im LST in these cups and just test some shit.

Ill put an update up ina week or w.e

(And rusty ik i sounded like i had no clue what ur talkin about but nah im good i got it i been putting in my time, every time i lay down or aint doing something fora min im on my sidekick googleing shit about weed. Shits an obsesion. It isn't healthy)
