First Grow On A Budget

[Krissi Carbone]

Hi krissi I tried to pm you but I got a message that basically told me I was lowly newb and couldn't speak to such a higher up lol

I just messaged you!!

Ok it's been a few days and I love watching this little beauty grow up. I have lowered the veg nutrients (2 teaspoons p/g) and have upped the big bloom (1/2 cup p/g) and tiger bloom (4 teaspoons p/g). I have her at a 6a.m to 6p.m (12/12) schedule as it's now matches my work times perfect. I did remove 2 huge leaves from the plant as one a big 3 point under the plant wasn't getting any light anymore. And then a 5 point towards the top that was blocking a couple grow points of tiny 7 pointers....and from the looks of things she appreciated the trim. But thanks again as always for stopping.


*Advisory Warning*

I have also since taken in the "experiment" my gf was working on and I'm going to try my best to save it it went from doing good to literally like dying over night... I don't know what she did... But I cleaned off all the black stems and leaves, it's still showing signs of small new growth... And I have new dirt arriving Friday from fox farms... Idk if she can be saved ... But I need to try I feel bad lol

BELOW: 2 pics of my healthy and 2 pics of the living dead

Oh the living dead....yikes...she's still kicking it though ain't she...what a trooper

No, that baby died.... But now I have an extra small light and happy frog soil that I can use since she died before I could change soil and give her a fresh start.

Hello all, so just a quick update she is growing very quickly and healthily. I'm watering every 2-3 days with the same nutrients (fox farm trio) adding a little extra of bloom and flowering when I feed. She is getting 12 and 12 of light. I'm happy with how's things are going so far.... To bad I can't make time fly by a little quicker lol. But I have another random bag seed in fresh soil after a 24 hour soak..so we will see if I can go 3-3 on getting female seeds . Below are pictures of the different tops and they're progress to stinkiness. Once again thanks for checking in.

Thank you, Im not going to lie I'm surprised because I'm kinda experimenting and nothing has killed her but no worries squiggle if you miss a day or two when you check back there will be some content to look over

Hi all back for an update. Everything seems to be doing great, everyday growing new pistil groupings and small cola clusters( pictures below) but I do have one concern. In the photo provided below, one of the new growth tips has what almost looks like it was eaten or burned?! None of the other stems are showing this nor is there this on any other top. Last time watered was 2-3 days ago and was given just water no nutrients. I watered and fed her today. I also moved the light up higher as it was around 30cm(12inches) above plant... I have no idea as Google isn't very helpful at pin pointing what I have going on. So green guru's I need a little guidance please

Looking good, I don't know what's eating the leaves sorry, but I'm sure someone will.

And we have life!!! I have no idea male/female but it came out of a bag of white Runtz from Cali and yes it is in a champagne flute figured first fancy seed must get a fancy start to life lol

 

[HappyHazmat88]

Alright everything seems to be doing good... I'm still not sure what messed with my leaves but I haven't spotted it on any other parts of the plant. But she's sprouting pistils literally everywhere so I assume that's a really good sign new seedling has been moved into a 1.5 gallon draining pot with happy frog potting soil with perlite and my own extras. It is in another room until I know the sex. But over all everything seems good....I may have to start watering a day sooner than every 3 days, seems to be drinking alot... not sure yet..... but I'm a Happy guy right now !

 

[Paul Squiggle]

Looking good in there mate, its all definitely a good sign.. it gets exciting from now on, watching the buds grow.. you will never leave them alone now it's ultra fascinating.
But, keep doing what your doing and you will have a successful harvest

Hello again. Bi-tri day update. Taking off is an understatement lol I'm loving it. It's starting to get a smell mmmmm and it has slowed down stretching....I think. All is good except I'm a little concerned that one of the tops pistils is turning Amber already. I know it's a sign of maturity but everywhere I've read has said this happens week 4-5 I'm at the end of week 2.…...any ideas? Is it normal? And some random good news, the other seeds I planted that didn't make it I left the pots sitting and checked then a yesterday and I have the smallest volunteer I have ever seen lol idk sex or where it came from but it made its own life happen I left it for dead so I know have 1 in flower and two seedlings... Let's keep fingers crossed they're girls. As always thanks for stopping.

Awwww! The force must be strong with that one! She’s making her OWN way in this world, thank you very much

 

[HappyHazmat88]

2 day difference after a Light Stress Treatment using floral wire.... Holy shit...excuse the language but I swear the plant doubled in size and flower points I have also realized I need much more space...a 2x2x4 space is quickly filing up with just this one and I have two others started :/ but if that's the only issue I have is space then I'm doing ok but again thanks for stopping.

 

[Paul Squiggle]

Very happy plants mate. You've got it dialled in

 

[cjsbabygirl313]

Whatever you’re doing is working so I say keep on keeping on!
