first grow log, I WILL need help

[RichRich]

They are looking good to me so far......that seems like to correct amount of light at this stage. Ph is perfect for a soil grow. What is the temp of the room? high and low if you know it. Are you keeping them at 24 right now?

I will be using distilled water, foxfarm ocean forest soil, and the nutes will be foxfarms grow big and tiger bloom. I want you guys to let me know exactly what you think because i have a bunch of crappy grows under my belt, my last grow yielded ~10g and consisted of 4 fem PPP, very pathetic. so help me get my plants looking as good as your plants. P.S I am quite generous with handing out rep Rating: 5

the battery died on my thermometer but im sure the temps are between 80-90 F all day and yes i have the lights on 24 hours.

Looks good. Just hope at least one is female. I use my tapwater with no ill effects comparable to using spring water. It has a very high pH and chlorine content. It's also very hard, you can knock someone out if you throw it at them with enough force.

Distilled water would be pH 7 if it has no dissolved gas, but it usually has co2 in it which lowers the pH. Because it has no buffering capacity, less acid is needed to drop the pH. I assume with your PPP grow you did not get into cloning. I would highly recommend it. If you get a female you should keep her in veg and take clones from her so you can have a continual supply of plants to flower and you will know their production characteristics. :thumbsup:

I dont really even mind if i get 2 males as long as they are healthy looking and i can carry the experience to my next grow. yeah the reason i didn't get in to cloning is because each plant had no branching what so ever, i mean NONE and i did attempt a FIM on one of them which gave me a tiny branch about 1 cm long which in the end had a very tiny bud on it lol i will post pictures of the plants. (I still have the stems for some reason lol)

[michaelpeg]

the last one compares the thickest part of the stem with the inside part of a pen. and keep in mind i grew these for around 6 months! the plants all had about a 2 inch bud on the top of the stem and a few tiny ones underneath.

day 3 - no problems yet, here are some pictures of them and the box they are currently in. ignore the other plants in the box that are not in the black seedling planter.

Day 5 They look ok so far, maybe a bit small? one of them has slight curling under of the leaves for some reason. For those who start there plants in those seedling things that come with the humidity domes, how long do you wait before transplant? I was thinking maybe another 5 days or so.

Still at it michaelpeg good to see ,it's looking good have you gotten a crop off yet,it's been a year or so since i talked to you last just wondering,you seem determined and alot more educated.GOOD JOB
And then i read the whole log and answer my question duh!!!!!
Things are dry where i'm at no weed anywhere till fall ,thats why i can't think straight lol!!!!!!!!!!

[michaelpeg]

lol good to here from you again, yes i have read quite a bit in the last year, hopefully this will be the crop that will give me a decent yield. sucks to hear you're out of weed man, It doesn't stay dry here very long but when its dry I get real grumpy lol. Hope you stick around for this one:jointsmile:

Day 7 - A week from breaking soil today and the leaves on both seem to be curling down, one more than the other, could this be that they are asking for a transplant maybe or what? they are not under watered nor over watered, and not a ph problem runoff is 6.5. they are watered once a day as the cups are somewhat small.
