First Grow

[rev]

Lookin good. Mine are @ about the same stage and I'm going to nute them for the first time today. I over did it with my last crop. There's always that temptation to give them as much as they can handle but err on the side of too little! you can always give them more, but flushing 2 @ this young stage is ofter a prob!

Here's a pic of mine

Looking good Rev! Looks like we are just about neck and neck! Good luck to you! I will keep up the photos and it would be great if you could do so too. Just watered them again this morning, but did not feed them. I will wait till Wednesday for that. Thanks for the advice! Best-

Thanks Fred! I'm curious when you were planning on transplanting. Also light schedule & enviro temps. This is the stage where they really shoot up! Lookin good.

Hey Rev- well, they are in my closet and they can get a bit cold. To be honest, I am not exactly sure of the temp in there, however I need to start monitoring it as I realize it will be an issue. I think I need to transplant within a week or so. They are starting to move big time and they took to their first feeding really well. Only watered them today and will wait to feed on Wednesday. I am on a 18/6 and will go to 12/12 in about 20 days or so.

Been moving the lamp up again as the tops are a little bit dark. Have it at about 50 cm. Was tempted to move it down a little, but think it is fine right where it is. What would you recommend in regards to transplanting? How many days you reckon? What are you planning on?

Thanks so much!

I have been suffocating these poor ladies (hopefully) at night while the 400W Sodium light shines down on them. Basically, I have noticed I have really bad ventilation and it has been getting damn hot in that closet. The plants tend to experience heat stress and then the water dries up. Could be my soil which I am going to alter once I transplant. Either case, they always seem to perk up, however I need to keep the stress down. I sometimes find myself having to water almost daily as they wither and droop each morning. My light is at 50 cm and I am not planning on bringing it down because some of the other plants have some burn marks on the top.

As this is my first grow, I am learning something new everyday, however they don't look half bad.

Peace from Praha!

dUNNO WHY EVERYONE WAITS SO LONG TO GET THEIR PLANTS FERTILIZED AS LONG AS YOU UNDERSTAND NOT TO OVERFEED WHEN YOUNG, THE PLANTS WILL TAKE IT ALL DAY LONG AND FORM STRONGER BRANCHES,GROW QUICKER AND PRODUCE MORE LEAVES/BRANCHES/FLOWERS

if you have the space it's probably a good time to transplant.

Thanks so much for the advice. Problem is, I really don't have that much space. I have read on here to wait till they show sex, but that won't be for another 3 weeks or so. Going to have to think of something...
