First Grow, need input
Cannabis FAQs / FAQ , Recipes, Medical Marijuana That is the growing FAQ, which will answer most of ur questions, it is a library of good shit.
U have to turn ur lights to 18/6 ASAP, or ur tiny plant will start to bloom, and u want it much bigger b4 it does that. Lights could be moved a bit closer and u could get a couple more. U can get 2 or 3 packs anywhere for decently cheap, get ones that say blue spectrum or daylight. these are good for veg. Yellowish redish light is good for blooming,
Pot size: For veg i use 2 gallon pots, then transplant to 5 gallons for blooming. U could go a 5 gallon tho for the whole life of the plant, might make things a little easier and u would only have to transplant once. Also before u transplant, u will want to get some "perlite." they are small white pellet light things. Mix about 3 parts soil to 2 parts perlite for a good mixture. This helps to get air to ur roots and to help get good drainage, both very very important.
Nutes: U wont need any of these untill ur plants are transplanted a wee bit bigger, i try to wait untill i see 3-fingered leaves or bigger, usually about 2 weeks. When u decide to go shopping u will want to buy some stuff online, or from a hydroponic/indoor gardening center. I would suggest buying a liquid 3-part, which consists of a fert. for vegitating plants, a fert for flowering plants, then a fert u will use the whole time to supply all the micro nutrients u need. All of these ferts will have what is called "N-P-K" listed on the bottle, which is the ratio of nitrogen-phosforus-potassium. For veg u will want higher N, my veg fert is 6-4-4. Bloom calls for lower N and higher p and K. Mine is 2-8-4.
U know how to reach me if u got anyurgent questions that cannot wait.
Watering: Slow ur waterings down, u should have to water only once every other day at the most. I water mine then wait 2 days, the if the soil looks good and dried i will water again on the third day. I also water each pot until all the soild is wet and some water is running out of the bottom. That is y u cut those wholes so that water doesnt sit down there at the bottom and start growing mold and nasty shit that will kill ur plant.
Besides all that urplant looks pretty healthy and like it loving life.:thumbsup:
U know where to find me if u got any Q:'s
PS - beware of what some people will tell u, if u are unsure of their advice wait for a couple more people to comment and make an educated decision. There are some extremely knowledgable people here (stinkyattic, oppie yutts) just to name a few, but also many people that basically expell shit from their mouths and nothing they say should be taken seriously. If ur unsure u got my number.
