Advice Needed - First Try at growing pot

[Luckyran]

Hi everybody

We bought holland seeds ( Amnesia ) and germinated them in a closet with wet tissues , we then transplanted them in a cup with soil in it(3 octobre). when the plants was ( to our knodlege ) big enough we transplanted it to a 7.5 littres pot.The plant is a month old we don't know if we should start putting our fertilizer. and if the plant is healthy because as you can see on the pictures one of them looks tired. we thought we are not getting enough sunlight so we added aluminum on the pot's border the tired(big) one is showing white hears which we believe to be the Tri-Chrome . if we have to put fertilizer how much and how would be the best results. The first month we had around 8-10 hours of sunlight with 50-80% humidity and 33 degrees Celsius day average and 28 at night but our plant is situated on our rooftop protected from wind. now we have around 6 hours of sun and around 40% humidity with around 25 degrees Celsius in day average and 18 at night with some tropical rain..

we are not serious growers , were just wanted to try it once and see how it would turn out.
you will see our two plants Miss Daisy and Tired , Miss daisy was a slow grower compared to Tired , you'll see the attachments

any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

nice bro...what i would do is trim all the 3 pointed leaves and the first set of 5 pointed leaves like you see the cloons trimmed..on a 45 degree angle.Later take the 3 pointed leaves off:jointsmile:

[Luckyran]

What exactly do you mean by cloons and trimming , cutting them off?
if you could elaborate in easier words would be great , what about the fertelizer ?

thank you for answering

[mikeyman]

i ment clones.Have you seen a clone plant trimmed?/?.Fertilizers are plenty.Did you want to stay organic.I see if i can find some pics

[mikeyman]

ok this one has its leaves trimmed

[Luckyran]

I see what you mean by trimmer is this to make a other plant? what do you mean by clone? we don't want to stay organic , we have fertilizer from 4 to 7 ph when should we start it ? we appreciate you answering me.. the only thing we did is give him water and since the weather is getting could by putting fertelizer it will increase or chances to have a sucess.

thank you so much

they sell clones (small plants) at the store here .just cut the leaves that i suggested and you'll see if the plant likes it

[mikeyman]

yes you could start a little fertilizer..

I would try and keep the roots warm and give ferts after 30 days. So yeah get your ferts on them at about half strength now, then give her a few days to see how she looks. Then water. Then after she drys a bit give more ferts. Then water. After you see she is tolerating the ferts bump them up a bit then water. Build up on the ferts till your full strength, but water in between. You can always start nutes/ferts after 3-4 weeks. But if it gets to the point of frost it will kill your plant. If you cant bring it in i would at least cover it till morning.



Good luck:rasta:
