    First Indoor Grow, Advice Welcomed.

    Update
    Have had a few issues lately with evaporation leaving the nutrient solution too strong for the plants and causing some nute burn. Also with the water coming out with a PH of 8.9 and me only just being able to test it has its own problems aswell

    Well so a few more picces for everyone to see. Probably not much different except for one but im still proud lol :clap:

    Is it true that nothing seems to be happening due to the plant settling in and growing a root system?

    Just a little update for ya'll :thumbsup:
    Funnily enough the PH tester i was using (my mates) was actually not reading correctly anymore.. That caused a few issues

    Between the PH being around 7.8 and a small insect issues things are going swimmingly.. lol But hey this was a learning process for me and i've been learning

    Ohh and p.s the little fella is actually a 'Celtic Hash' seedling. Should be good to keep as a mother

    wow yeah that PH is pretty high, i;ve never done hydro, but from what i understand 5.5-5.8 ph is around where you want it...

    as for the insect problem, try picking up some concentrated neem oil and follow the directions on the package.

    if you have pests already, you'll want to ignore their instructions for how often to apply it - you'll want to do it about every 3 days for 2-3 weeks.

    if the problem isn;t really serious at all yet, you can follow the directions which generally is about once every 1-2 weeks.

    as for your question about the plants seeming to be doing nothing - yep you are dead on, they are basically focusing on forming a new root system, as the roots flush out you'll start seeing more and more above-ground growth.

    good luck!

    heya shake

    Atm there running 18/6. But i did make the newbie mistake when changing my hours around that i accidentally had it running 14/10 so it would have been really confusing my plants lol..

    I purchased myself a PH tester and Superthrive yesterday. Hopefully due to being able to be on top of the PH, growth should improve dramatically.. Been make quite a few newbie mistakes but hey thats part of the parcel i guess

    Twice when testing the PH the numbers were near the 8.0 mark and thus the plants would have been in lock out right?

    I would have to say age/height....As you don't want to start them to early to where it isn't fully mature to start sexing them, but at the same time you don't want them to get too big for your grow space as they will double to triple in size when thrown into 12/12 (flowering phase). Basically it is all on you. :thumbsup:

    well its been a LONG long time lol, basically my camera ran out of batteries and i had it on my to do list which never got completed lol

    Well i left it a little too late as i wasn't very aware of exactly how crazy they stretch when changed to 12/12 although it looks like i started basically at the latest possible as they are practically right at the lights.

    Had a little bit of light burn due to this but by moving the pots around and such i've got them a little further along..

    Well i've got some batteries now (plus a dehumidifier :thumbsup so here are some pics to enjoy.

    p.s i've changed to the canna range when i changed to flower as a friend of mine raves on about the PH stability which was pissing me off with the Optimal range fluctuating constantly lol

    Enjoy

    they are huge aren't they!
    Only problem is that the light isn't evenly distributed due to the buds being so close and the light literally being the closest to the roof as possible..

    One other thing guys is i lost track of the dates when turned to 12/12 and im going to use Canna's PK 13-14. Due to not know when the 5th week is i don't know when to use it..

    Any way to kind of estimate by looking at the buds? lol Probably not though..
    Thanks for looking! :thumbsup:
