Well there are alot of different types of food you can get. I use the fox farms 3part nutrient system and it works great for me. When I was very tight on money I used miracle grow grow and bloom nutes. Not the best but works fine.

Black Magic makes a few different types of soil. Can you be more specific? From the looks of it in the picture it has very little perlite and a ton of what looks to be pine bark mulch. That stuff can mess with the PH of your medium and cause problems. What type of containers are they planted in?

They should be much larger and ready to be flowered after 1 month. To be honest, I would scrap those ones you got going. Go find yourself some better soil like fox farms ocean forest or even some regular Scotts potting mix or miracle grow potting mix. It also helps to get some more perlite to mix in if you go with scotts or MG. Dont worry too much about scrapping them. In the right conditions you will have the same amount of growth in a day or two.

Also start them in a small container like a solid color (not clear) dixie type cup. Make sure you punch holes on the bottom for drainage. Then progressively transplant into bigger pots as they get older.

If you start over with some better materials and read these forums until your eyes bleed, then theres no reason you wont have x-mas bud or even sooner!


They key is to read, read, and read some more.
