Hello all!
I am a very very first time grower, I've only been smoking around 2 years and recently moved to Colorado. My sister in law gave me a jar of weed she grew that's some kind of hybrid that she just threw outside and didnt care about so its littered with seeds. So I figured I would give them an attempt to grow, but despite watching a million videos and reading blogs I am still a bit confused and concerned.
Here is my set up so far before I get to my questions
Strain: Unknown hybrid
# of plants: 7
Grow type: Soil
Grow stage: I'm assuming seedling? I think they might be behind so I'm not certain
Bucket size: I went straight from paper towel germination to 3 gallon fabric pots
Lights: I have 2 300 watt LED full spectrum lights
Nutrients: I have not used any so far but I do have the fox farm trio. Grow Big, Big Bloom and Tigers Bloom
Medium: I have 5 in Fox Farms Happy Frog Soil then 2 in Miracle Grow Organic
PPM: Not sure what this means yet
PH: I have an actual water distiller because I have so many humidifiers in my house and the use that water for my plants and it tests at 6.4
RH: I have the humidity at between 50-60%
Room Temp: Always between 73-80 degrees
Solution temp: Not sure what this means but if it's to the water I leave it in my grow room so it stays at room temp
Room SF: I am growing in a 3x3 grow tent inside of a walk in closet so I leave the door open when the lights are on close it when it's dark time
Pests: None used diomothucus clay in the room before even starting grow room so haven't seen anything.
Now I did the paper towel method then immediately moved to a 3 gallon pot with fox farms happy from soil, they all seem to be growing but I think from watching so many videos or looking at pictures my plants look super far behind.
I took my first picture of them being tiny little sprouts November 5 that was after soaking them in water for 24 hours, then letting them sit in a damp paper towel for 5 days then planting so they were roughly 2 weeks old November 5th so they are at around 4 weeks old in these pictures. I just took these yesterday.
So 1 I am concerned they are too small.
2 I am worried about watering because I have been watering them everyday only around 1/2 a cup maybe which I'm not sure if it's enough or too much I do do the put my finger in and its dry thing but not sure if I should water more. All the videos I see are in red solo cups which I didnt know I was suppose to start in.
And 3 when would I start adding nutrients and how much? I did read that using fox farms gave me some time before I had to start but I'm not sure when and how much to start.
I apologize for all the newbie questions I have been watching videos and reading posts but I'm still confused. I honestly didnt even know what a grown weed plant looked like as I'm a super newbie at smoking too.
Any and all advice would be so appreciated thank you so much
