Hi everyone. I'm new here and have checked out some grow logs and thought I'd post my own. This is my first grow and the idea came very late and because of which, I started the grow very late. They were germinated on the 17th of August and planted in small plastic cups filled with fox farm ocean forest potting soil on the 20th overnight.

Started with 9 Burmese Kush seeds, 1 didn't pop at all, another cracked but pretty much remained stagnant.

Since then, it appears another seemed to have been severely damaged during potting and is also out of the race. The current state of the plants are in the following pics.

I've also gotten replacement seeds for the cups of the dead/unpopped ones. All seeds are feminized. The replacement seeds were different strains, including Onyx, Him. Blue Diesel, and Blue Hash.

The pics were taken after 36 hours in the soil outside.

I will post updates as it progresses, however, I have questions on whether or not I should use nutes for veg states if it is so late in the year, and likely to flower early. I was recomennded to just use the fox farm big bloom nutes, and not to worry about using tiger bloom or grow big from fox farm.

Also, I'm concerned about pH, should I be this early in the grow? I heard the type of water you use can also affect pH levels, I think I might invest in a pH monitor, any practical cheap ones anyone knows of?
