lab, no animated avatar - booo!
She looks strong joedad; many times my seedling will start out with so much promise and then one morning you check in and the poor girl has keeled over, the stem turns purple and shrinks, then you turn out the lights, and she turns out the light...

 

[joedaddy805]

it looks like it follows the sun during the day. I'm hoping it will do good outside being that i sprouted it outside not indoors. I'm hoping that by doing that it make it a lil more hardy.

 

[joedaddy805]

I'm so tempted to feed it nutes but i really want to see what this plant will do with just water from the hose and thats it. its gonna be hard to not feed it ph the water and all that other stuff

[Lester Freeman]

8 days no growth

doesn't sound right

 

[joedaddy805]

it looks lie its on its second set. but it seems to be growing a lil slow.

 

[labexperiment]

What have the temps been like in the last 8 days or so?

 

[joedaddy805]

they have been around the 70's during the day I'm not so sure about the night i would say around the low 50's

 

[SmokerJoe]

Ah thats the problem that cold at night. below 65 for any length of time will cause stunting and prolonged will cause tissue damage. The problem seems to be that your plant is repairing any damage it received overnight during the day and doesnt have much time to grow after.

 

[joedaddy805]

So i guess it'll just be a slow grow then. Maybe i should change the journal name to slow grow instead. i was gonna put it in my veg cooler and start if off that way but decided to just let it go outside from the get go.

 

[SmokerJoe]

Yeah I dont grow outside as you know but I have a bit of knowledge on it . Plants started indoors then later brought outdoors almost always fair better. Indoors the environment is pretty isolated and controlled where outside the little seedling is left to fend for itself in a harsh climate. At that size I would imagine even a downpour of rain would kill it. If it was me I would start them indoors for about a month then take them out when the plant will be able to handle cold and heat stress the windburn and all of those things. I know you like to go cheap so maybe instead of a month indoors maybe make it only 2 weeks but any amount of time will only benfit the plant and by extension you. I know it kinda sucks spending the cash and sucks even worse if you dont have any cash to spend but if you think about the gains its almost always worth it. I try to sell a bit to just negate the cost of electricity it makes it a lot more pheasable to sell a oz of the grow to pay for the electricity for all the ladies.

Well i did plant another seed that i was gonna put in my veg cooler and veg it for a month then plant it in the ground a see the difference. So i guess ill see how much of a difference itll be. I was curious to see the difference between the two if the one i planted and veg in the cooler would out grow the other one. It should sprout within a day or two. We will see what happens but im gonna just water it with the same water to give it the same treatment only start it off in the cooler first.
