My First Grow

[klozit]

12/12

[l8tnightskunk]

haha starting monday im switching them to 12/12

[tricome]

12/12 will keep your plants from getting too big for your space.
Probably a good idea.
Looking good so far!

it all depends what kinda plant you want.

12/12 is faster but the plants are smaller. veging first gives you bigger plants.

usually.

there are ways to get the 12/12's to yeild, though you outta grow more at a time when doing a straight 12/12.

Well im restricted to growing area so i was thinking that the 12/12 would help because it would keep my plants short, and still get an alright yield,i wish i could be like yall guys and be able to grow them 4" 5" monsters! what do you mean by outta grow? thanks for the help nbk.380

[l8tnightskunk]

lol all good i get it now thats true huh how long do you think it takes for 12/12 rather than the usual hrs

[l8tnightskunk]

Quick update i transplanted them yesterday they are looking alright a lil droopy, lately ive been a lil dissapointed in the progress just because they look sad idk but heres and update if anyone can notice why they are so droopy please let me know thanks.


the only healthy looking one

you can tell they are droopy sad

[klozit]

they look like they are over watered, if it gets worse, then you have problems

what day are they on? im excited to get mine to look like yours

[Be IRIE]

they do look over watered.. what frequency are you watering at.. Looks like I am seeing some discoloration to. Have you started with the nutes yet? Are you misting them or foliar in any way? do you know what your humidity is in there?

Im glad your helping me Be Irie, I was watering them everyday till i noticed them being sad then decided to transplant just incase it got worser, but i have been watering alot. I also noticed them being a lil yellow instead of green green like they use to be a week back, and i have started to foliar feed with fox farms veg and also tried the tbs in gallon of water and i fed them with that like 2 days then started to notice nute burn so i quit that and i just foliar feed here and there. Unfortunatley i havent been able to purchase a humidity checker, any idea where or how much they are? thanks alot for the help guys i would never have figured out the overwatering if yall hadnt mentioned it.

[Be IRIE]

Whenever you are introducing chem nutes never go full strength..Especially at that age...Maybe try and split your watering's between watering roots and foliar... if you have a spot for it maybe get a bowl of water in there to try and help get the humidity up a little bit.

you said this
" i have started to foliar feed with fox farms veg and also tried the tbs in gallon of water and i fed them with that like 2 days then started to notice nute burn "

Is the FF veg meaning Grow Big? TBS??? You guys are killing me with the tablespoons of GB... It should be tsp hopefully it was a typo...

Looks like lots of us are helping... With all this braiin power we will get you straightened out...

Just ease up on the watering's and see how it reacts... Then we will work on the feedings...

[l8tnightskunk]

Yes Grow Big and tsp sorry it was a typo, im gonna lay off watering till i see they are thirsty that way i can manage when they need watering and when they dont i also tried the lifting the vase to see how heavy it is and when its not but i dont think i was good at it lol, and i do have room for a bowl with water can it be just any bowl with water or certain size? thanks again
