My 2 plants are currently in 5 gallon pots, but they only have 3 gallons of soil (FF Ocean Forest) in them because I ran out.
I'm a little concerned about getting root bound and figured an extra gallon of soil underneath would be helpful. Would it be okay to purchase this "Black Gold...
I have my exhaust running 24/7, mind as well have that fresh air!
I also have a small PC fan running as intake because my intake is from the top and I have duct work leading to the bottom of my tent, so I thought I needed that extra boost.
Day 12
No photos but today was the first day I gave them Fox Farm nutrients at 1/4 strength.
Also they are now officially in their 12/12 cycle. Did some good LST today too.
Day 14 - 2 Week Mark!
Looking great! Probably a few days from now they will have grown enough for me to stick some more...
I'm on my first grow using COB's: 3 Vero 29 chips about 3 inches apart from each other in a line using 230W total. No optics.
My plants which are in early flower seemed to be doing fine at 12" and I just lowered it to 11", so I'll see how it goes. I'm just curious to what everyone else is doing.
Blurple lights get a bad rep but they can grow from seedling to harvest. They just AREN'T the BEST but you can grow good plants with them.
I would get the Vipaspectra 300W about $80 on Amazon. Someone on this forum grew a pound using that brand off a single auto flower.
To summarize...
Hey you guys thanks for all the replies. I guess it was a false alarm, they are looking decent now. I must've been overwatering them. Here they are at day 10.
Day 5
Transplanted them to the good ol' 1 galloners. Fabric pots, of course.
Day 6
Got a few new things: a USB-Powered PC Fan, an outlet strip with USB ports, some flexible ducting. It was an easy way to get some extra fresh air into the tent.
Day 10 - Final Transplant...
