grow #1

[can-na-bis]

hello all. i have been on here for about a month and have read and read thread after thread before i started. hear is my experience with growing so far 15-20 years ago i tried to grow a few bag seeds and they grew about 3 inches and died. did it again and the same results. now reading all this info on here i think they were root bound in little containers. so now here i go again. i have 10 cheese bomb that i got from gorilla and planted 3 of them 6/22 they are in my basement at 65 deg at 66 humidity with 2 cfls over them.i have them on all the time unless someone has better idea. they are in natural and organic happy frog dirt that has composted forest humus,peat mos, perlite, earth worm castings, bat guano, humic acid, oyster shell and dolomite lime. in 4"x4"x4" containers. I named them A, Band C but my girl is calling them Albert, Einstein, and Mutt. lol so B and C are growing good with what i would call a little stretch so i took A out and planted it deeper almost up to the first round leaves, as per a videio i found around here. will be doing the the same to C. now the mutt B i must have not planted deep enough and upside down it was all messed up so i took it out and planted it best i could. hear are some pics of all of them.

B. aka Albert


C. aka Einstein


A. aka Mutt




grow area. waiting for grow tent to arrive any day.

also what should the PH be at?

[jeubzzz]

Nice grow, the ph should be around 6 wich is one down from neutral. Pot likes it to be a bit acidic.:stoned:

They look like they're trying to get away from the light , what's the temp at plant level? Happy Frog is not the best for seedlings it's pretty hot and they don't need hot this early.

thank you jeubzzz

temp is floating between 72-74deg. they grew tall fast and i was turning them so they would grow straight (not enough lights) i put some shiny tin foil over them and that helped out a lot.

[can-na-bis]

Mutt didnt make it but the other 2 are doing great.

[can-na-bis]

how long should i leave them under the cfl's? and when should i stop the 24/0 and go to 18/6 light cycle?

what would be good to lower it?

[Shovelhandle]

I suggest pH down. Don't bother with home remedies like vinegar. It will lower the pH for a minute but it won't be stable. 24/0 or 18/6, both are light schedules for the vegetative cycle. Either / or
