Okay was just going ti say my floor in basement is wet and cold i put those things foam matts that click together a d are colourful. for a spongey floor think they are used for babies and kid rooms as softer floors to walk on and crawl on. I put it under neathe tent so tent is off ground and has a insulated barrier underneathe it now. .

Roughly 6 weeks from seed, grown in oceans forest soil, topped them a few days ago, haven't nuted them yet because they've suffered some root bound/ nute burn issues but was wondering if I could start now. Planning on using the fox farm trio

TBH, you're plants look like they're doing very well just the way things are now. Adding in nutes at this time might start inducing complications. My first grow was in FFOF, and back then, the 420 old heads used to tell me that soil mix is hot, meaning that that are already plenty of available elements and compounds. I would honestly wait till the leaves begin to show deficiencies before starting a nute regimen. Soil grows are known to produce slower, better, but slower.

I was wondering what other people are harvesting off there autos? I've not broken the 3 ounces per plant yet and was wondering if anyone else was consistently getting more than that and how? Thanks

hey all you expert growers , can you give me some answers?
I may be in a pinch, i gave my plants their first feeding last sunday . I skipped over planting my seeds in a solo cup and directly planted them to a 1 gallon instead , i have 5 total , im using promix hp . They seem to growing pretty good at this point but i may have a problem . My medium is still moist , its been 7 days since feeding and im worried about getting root rot . is this okay or normal ? should i wait another week or so until its COMPLETELY dry ? and did i screw up putting them directly to a 1 gallon pot ?

I'm following a journal that is an auto in coco under LED that yielded 8.5 ounces.

If they r small u only need to give a lil water just enough to dampen the soil. I'd let them dry out a bit before watering again. They need to make roots. 1 gal pots not an issue just take em a bit longer to fill the pots with roots. Put a fan so it blows across the top of the soil to help dry it a bit.

First time grower and not sure what to think of this. It appears I have a top growing out of the middle of a fan leaf. Has this happened to anyone? Will it be an ok top?

 

[wiley420]

Lol that's a first for me

 

[Furcifer]

Did not see this thread till after I started one for my question. Can you use a Himalayan salt lamp in your grow tent/space as a natural negative ion generator?

Don't know Have to look that one up.
Watch it be a rabbit hole!?!?

 

[Furcifer]

Can someone please help a first time grower and tell me if this plant looks over or under watered

I have not watered in 3 days and soil still feels wet so i am thinking the 20% vermaculite in the soil is holding to much water .Thank you for any advice

Not sure about soil. Coco is watr everyday.. hmm sorry but if its neen three days and still wet maybe uo more ventilation in there. Hrlp it dry out faster maybf raise pots off floor to allow even air fkow drying. Sorry im sure soneone will jump in soon.

Joe on the ball on mother's day
World grow FYI: Your soil has pine bark and vermiculite in it already...yes it's holding to much water. Perlite Great! Adding the vermiculite Not Good! Your mix is an organic slow release blend. N-P-K is 60-30-15. Great for vegetation. But, your plant is starting to show signs of N-toxicity. Need to dry your plant out. Email the manufacturer for information on their product. I would want to know how long it is hot for 4,6,12 weeks? When you switch to flower. You will have to add a bloom booster to offset the N in your soil.

The main is dividing into smaller leaves.
As the plant matures. Number of leaf sets increase. 1 set = 3 leaf, 2 sets = 5 leaf, 3 sets = 7 leaf FAN LEAF.

Kingjoe83 in particular since I know you are also growing Barney's Farm Auto Pineapple Express here is a taste of what you will be experiencing in the near future. It is about half of plant one of four which was all I believed to be ready to harvest. Happy Mother's Day to one and all!
