I

Very handy ....

I thought so as well, good score for a quarter haha

Your lil ladies are looking healthy man! You should drop those see through cups into a red solo cups to help block out light to the roots. Roots don’t like light, and just a simple fix. Everything is looking great so far man!

I actually went out and got some today, I wanted see through but knew I had to cover them up. Thanks! There looking good to me as well nd just got another feeding and had already grown a bunch more today

Just a little update for those that care lol
Al girls are doing good, to my eyes at least. Cinderella 99 seem to be growing faster than the Bruce banner. All have been watered with vita max Nutes and the ph was 6.6. I’ll try to post pics but it won’t let me right now

 

[Backlipslide]

Definitely keep my eyes open for those pics!

Here they are, I should also mention they were all transplanted to 1.5 gal pots 3 days ago

 

[Blackburn19]

So I have a question for anyone that can help me out. I’ve been feeding my plants these Grow Tek Kick Start nutrients as directed. My question is about switching nutrients, this seems to be good but I purchased the Advanced Nutrients Perfect Ph, the 3 parts grow, micro and bloom. What is the best route to switch do I flush the next feeding first?

 

[Backlipslide]

Your plants are looking all nice and uniform, looking healthy. Question about the nutrients. I’d never had to switch, first thought is I wouldn’t bother with a flush but I mean it probably wouldn’t hurt

 

[Blackburn19]

Ok thanks I was thinking the same I just wasn’t sure. Thanks when it comes to the looks of them, I agree they seem to be growing nicely so far

 

[Blackburn19]

Thought I’d give an update here. So my girls are now 21 days old from seed, all seem to be doing very well. I’ve made some changes, they were all up potted to 1.5 gal pots and took the transplants well, I switched Nutes to Advanced Nutrients PH Perfect Grow, Micro and Bloom. They have had one feeding with it, they were fed TIL run off but it’s been 7 days now and I’m still waiting for them to dry up so I can feed them again. I realize I might of transplanted to soon but am unsure if this is ok to stay wet this long. I purchased 3 gal fabric pots that I will switch to in a couple weeks. Any input or suggestions are appreciated!!

Here they are

 

[Backlipslide]

No they look to be a good size for transplanting.

They look to be thriving

How much smaller are those pots compared to the three gallon cloth pots? Doesn’t look like much.

Word of advice, definitely let them establish their root systems again before transplanting again. Been there done that, made a mess.

 

[Blackburn19]

The new cloth pots are half the size. Ok I will wait a while anyways TIL I transplant cause I don’t want anything to happen to them. So this morning I moved 1 Bruce Banner and 1 Cinderella 99 outside to begin there lives out doors, more than anything I just want to see the difference in the way they grow compared to in the tent.

 

[Backlipslide]

The cloth pots are half the size of the pots their in now? You plan on moving them to smaller pots?

 

[Blackburn19]

No sorry they are in 1.5 gal pots now and I just got 3 gal cloth pots that they will go in next as soon as there ready for a transplant. The cloth pots are bigger but I wouldn’t say twice the size now that I’ve compared them.

 

[Backlipslide]

Yeah, that sounds better! They will love those cloth pots. Designed to push roots away from the side walls and promotes healthier growth! Give them at least two weeks. Compare the size from when you first put them in these 1.5 gal pots, but If they haven’t at least or close to doubled in size. Don’t transplant them.

 

[Blackburn19]

Ok sounds great, thanks!!

 

[Blackburn19]

Ok here’s a little update since I just watered all the girls indoors. All are looking good (to me lol) just put them all on full strength nutes as I forgot to add the bloom last time. I installed my carbon filter yesterday since it was starting to stink up the basement

 

[Blackburn19]

Here’s a couple pics

 

[Backlipslide]

Looks healthy! I’m loving your lights! Looks like it pushes out some nice light!!

Your plants sure put on some weight! Have any plans on when your going to transplant them? They will love all that extra room!!
