starting my first grow well into it..I say my first .. It's my first grow that has been remotely successful.I'm sure everyone out there that read these forums has read how helpful these guys are.... So true words can't express :goodjob:
When I first started my research, I neither knew what week, how to sex what to look for to sex and a whole lot more than I'm willing to tell... Now I'm doing the :slide: and waiting patiently ...I'm sorry was bashful to start thread from seed but would like some comments, good or constructive

My questions
1. Did I prune too much

2. Does she look skinny.

3. Why does my hydro plant look like this no bottom leaves. (she had spider mites)

My post is fictional all pictures are cut and paste from the internet..!!!

re: Hello all I finally signed up and starting my first grow

You shouldnt ave cut the shit out of it just cause it had spider mites, ive never got the wee buggers but know theres a lot of ways to treat them other than cutting the shit out of your plants, what lighting have ya got on your girls ??
 
re: Hello all I finally signed up and starting my first grow

Thanks Strain Hunter but..
No did not cut that one... Leaves just died off started sprouting what seemed like new growth just never got much further ....(will upload pis of the sites) Die off started with bottom leaves turned yellow..
Still my first hydro attempt..Prob. over feed
The phototron girl is the one I was talking about
It's a phototron 2 the canopy light I added kicks out about 1600 lumens same on hydro
plant (not enough huh..)
Again thanks...

Baja Big Dog

Thanks bro just gave her some water last night.. I'm using

A organic fish and seaweed fert. 2-3-1
Big bud 0-2-4 ( since start of flowering )
A bit of super thrive
and organic thrive alive B-1
should I cut something out add something now that she's starting to flower anything would help
 
re: Hello all I finally signed up and starting my first grow

Quick update watered again today a little earlier than her usual, her soil not as dry as her normal watering time..
I picked up some earthworm castings:hmmmm:, so I mixed it with top layer of dirt, mixed some organic thrive alive b-1 in 2ltr and watered. Only used 1/4 of bottle..
Any thoughts on the worm castings?:hmmmm: read about on other threads:nomo: giving it a try..

As for my lazy hydro attempt: I put her on plain water in an attempt to save her...After trying the soap & water remedy for spider mites (with success).
her leaves curled down:rolleyes3:yikes: We'll see......
 
Re: Hello all I finally signed up and starting my first grow

Picked up a new bulb for dome of Phototron.Old bulb approx. 1600 lumens,
new bulb kicks out 2600!:slide::cheer::cheer: Looking for changes if any.
Doing more reading of other peoples grows:nomo:, was said when leaves have 3 or less petals, 1 might be overdoing the nutes:yikes::scratchinghead: most of my leaves only have 3 and she is already flowering?!

Question:should I give her straight water for a week or 2, :hmmmm::scratchinghead::scratchinghead::confused:
or am I mid panic 4 nothing..:hmmmm:
