1st grow - Growing to keep sane

[Lady Cannafan]

well today is the first of 12/12 kinda anxious to see how it went. i gotta wait an hour and 15 minutes still i'll have a pic update tonight as well... so, do stipules split and either become pistils or pollen sacks or how does it go... i have stipules on all 3 plants and the big gal's stipules look like they'll be splitting any day now. also would today or tomorrow be day 1 of flowering is it after first full cycle or beginning? if it's after i guess this evening will be day 2 of flowering.

Hey USMCO, looks like you have everything under control and planned out perfectly.
I didn't have any trouble with ant nats or any other kind of bug, other than a few moths a month or so ago. It must be our cold weather climate here. LOL
On the pistils and pollen sacs, if you go to my blog link and scroll to the second entry of the link you will see close ups on the female and the male process. This might help you picture what will be happening as they mature. Pollen sacs and male stamens are a totally different growth than the stipules.
Below sexing the female plant is a post on sexing the male plant. Hope it helps!

I will edit to say that it could be coming FROM the stipule somehow? Someone who see this regularly will know for sure.

ok my plants just woke up at 830pm est. they look wide awake and happy as can be

ok now those are the 3 i'm growing the first 2 are on 12/12 the one in the tan pot isn't that was formerly called droopy... i know she has burnt tips previous wear and tear she's getting a lot better!!! I was originally gonna only put big gal one 12/12 to start but decided i could but the other on on it and maybe she won't me too big. all 3 plants have pre-flower growth. here is my biggest question

is that a pistil?

 

[USMC0420grow]

o i forgot to mention if i zoom in on the plant pics there are little white crystals all over... not just a lil saw dust but crystals too.

Just read through your thread. Looks like you had a rough beginning, but doing well now. I'm on my first grow too; probably be switching to 12/12 in another week or so. Anyhow wanted to say hi and congrats on your grow so far.

I don't see a pistil in that pic, but no sign of male genitalia either.

 

[USMC0420grow]

i must be just super hopeful lol any how just checked em and lights go out in 27 min... this sucks on Sundays i have a lot of free time and now i can't visit with my plants... well 2 of them. another week or so and my last plant should be on 12/12 i'm waiting on my next set to pop it seems to take forever. for em to sprout... lastly my germ method isn't working any more one my next 3 beans I have six germed beans in solo cups, 2 are feminized. can I get a few ideas to germinate the beans better?

 

[Lady Cannafan]

Hi ya! I don't see pistils or any other sexing sign there yet either. Just the stipules so far. But your plants look downright healthy!
The frosty stuff you are seeing very close up, could that be teeny tiny moisture beads?

late update today had to fix my mom's furnace after work... i woke up this morning and had 2 more sprouts that makes 3 total plus 3 growing plants to make 6... omg i hope i'm not over my head with plants... gotta get more light fixtures now plus Y splitters.

 

[Lady Cannafan]

ROFL! I went through the same thing, did NOT expect all the seeds to germ and sprout. Congrats on the success! You will do fine.

 

[USMC0420grow]

thanks canna i hope... it kina suck not being able to check the kids till 830 pm i got a few hours till i can check on em... anticipation sucks.

 

[USMC0420grow]

ok i may have a problem

my PH was a lil high and my soil is cool and damp but the air is 76 degrees f. humidity is lower at 40 % RH
how ever this one seems to be doing fine...

a little curling of the leaves but all in all doing good. due for a watering tomorrow but soil is a little damp.
I didn't get a pic of the recovery/nursery room but all is going well... etremely well in there. i'll update later.

Any sugjestions on my sad plant?

 

[draxlin]

I'm new to all this, but looks like possible over watering on both plants to me. I m sure you'll get some help from someone more qualified then me though.

 

[USMC0420grow]

I'd usually agree with ya but I haven't watered in 6 days. Plus the yellowing.

 

[Lady Cannafan]

Hey, USMCO...are you using nutes yet? I had that happen to one of my girls with some leaves close to the soil and it turned out to be splashing from the nutes. However, could be other things too. Wish I could help there. The first one definitely looks a little wilty.
You can try the plant problem chart in my signature and see if you can recognize anything when you have time, while waiting for someone who might know what's going on.
Keep smiling...it will all work out.

 

[USMC0420grow]

Dam I do remember that. That maybe the issue thanks

 

[KingJohnC]

your leaf damage appears to be from splashed water droplets on the leaf. your plants look either over watered or under watered, you can use a soil moisture meter to help you get an idea of when to water.

 

[Lady Cannafan]

I just have to ask, because sometimes the obvious can be missed....do you have drain holes in the bottom of the containers?
Don't want you to be a me.....I forgot that once.
