I'M CONSIDERING GROWING INDOORS; needless to say all were started indoors like my first grow. I'm using Root Organics 707 soil, with 1/2 cup of lime like my first grow, in 5 gallon pots watered with a gallon (ph 6.0), soil runoff (ph 6.8). My concern that the they are growing slow, especially the B.H. which has had the same two leaves for the past few days and showing no signs of the 2nd set. The Onyx 2nd set look weird. And it seems like the leaves could be a little dark. I know it's early but I would appreciate some suggestions. I'm starting in my closet which had a heat problem like 90 degrees. I just added a vent connected to the AC which brought the heat down to like 81 degrees Peak, and the cool line blowing across the plants with 2 good fans running. If their is a problem, Firstly I thought it could be the heat (which I fixed). I was thinking that the soil could be too old or too hot (which I thought would be solved by the soil sitting for a yr). I saw a few dime sized pieces of bark in the soil, maybe the roots could be stuck (if thats the problem how could I solved this). I read that dark leaves could be from nitrogen toxicity, I haven't added any nutes. Lately I've been thinking about transplanting these to a different soil (if so what kind of soil would you suggest?). Or maybe taking my chances outdoors which it gets 90 degrees during the day. I want to get these girls to growing I dont want to lose'em. I know it's early, but I would appreciate any suggestions, I respect the advice of the growers on this site.
nl is a good beginner strain. no experience with autos, however you shouldnt add lime in premixed soil at least for a few weeks. root organics is a decent brand. with seedlings less is more and like purple daddy said, seedlings should be sprayed until soaked and the you should keep it moist adding in moisture thats needed. bark will hold large amounts of moisture so let it dry up. i use net pots in stages that way its easy to transplant. it just seems your overthinking this and trying too hard...good job on heat control and ph, but seedlings will find the the path if you go easy on the them.
