TheStickyEst's First Grow With x3 Strains

[TheStickyEst]

Starting my first grow (And grow journal). Setup includes everything included in the Mars Hydro 4x4 tent kit. I purchased the fem'ed super mix from 420 which included Gorilla Glue, Bruce Branner, and Girl Scout Cookies. Will be using FFOF mixed with happy frog was told to mix the two because FFOF could be considered to "hot" for seedlings. Planted the GG and BB August 5th and the GSC on the 6th. I'll be using General hydro nutes measuring the ph all the way.

Nice tent @TheStickyEst and start to your journal.
I hope you don't mind, if I stop in once in a while to see how your coming along.

Stay safe, and grow well my friend,

Tok..

Watching: FFOF with Happy frog and added perlite works great for me

First photo should be the Gorilla second is the Girl Scout third is Banner all 1 week after being put in soil. The Gorilla is showing the biggest leaves with Gsc and Banner around the same. Banner stretched quite a bit so I moved the light down and have increased the dimmer 5% I'll be increasing this slightly each week until I reach 100%. I've been watering based on appearance and weight circling the outside of the cup to encourage the root to grow towards the edges. I ordered 1 gallon grow bags that arrived today when do you know when to uppot? And when do you start feeding nutes 3-4 weeks after placing seed in soil?

Up potted this evening to 1 gallon grow bags. Roots were already trying to poke out the solo cup. Hopefully they look good in the morning.

The girls (hopefully) look alright after the up pot I don't see any signs of transplant shock.

Week 2 of being in soil do they look behind schedule?

Following along, looking good!

Just an FYI I'm colorblind as f@$% so if you see something happening on the leaves please shout out! I have my wife to help out here but she isn't as interested/invested as I.

Almost week 3.

Some pics of the gals the GoG has some type of deficiency. Turns out I was mixing nutes out of order this may have caused it or it may just be a heavy feeder. Brought in some terpinator to try and address the issue.

Here's a quick little update. Topped all the gal's going to try cloning the clippings. Flushed with ph'd water about double what I'd normally water with nutes. After letting them relax after the topping I started some lst and started preparing for a quadline.

Another update. Topped plants trying my hand at cloning. It's been over a week after dipping in cloning gel no sign of roots. They seem to be doing OK nonetheless. Trying to quadline these gals the GOG seems to really be taking to it. When they get thirsty I'm going to up pot them and I will probably go right to a 5 gallon pot and finish them in it. Had signs of a nute deficiency so we moved into the next stage of the GH 6 part nute regimen. No signs of progression. Been boring but rewarding. Thanks for reading!

Boring is a good thing when growing it means all is well
