To begin with I got a pack of Feminized White Widow, and another pack of Auto Revolver seeds from Crop King. Germination went great and I started the plants off indoors until the time came at which there would be no chance of frost and it would be safe to plant them outdoors. Its here where I think I started to go wrong.
First, the plants have been growing for about 3 weeks now, and they bare no resemblance to anything. They're however very tall (approx 6 inches). I would leave the plants outside in the direct sunlight for about 4 hours a day, and then move them indoors but in a naturally lit area for the rest of the day.
Second, One of the plants began to develop brown leave tips. The soil I was using to start them is rich soil (nice and black) so I believe this was the cause of the browning, and unfortunately the plant died within 2 days. Would naturally rich soil be the cause?
Third, after a quick google search I found this grow log (My Crop King Revolver Grow Log) and after 2 weeks his plant is short and wide with good leaf growth. Mine on the other hand are all very tall and only 2-4 leaves. This lead to the believe that they weren't getting enough direct sunlight. At this point they were too tall to stand by themselves and the main stem was too weak to support through ties so in order to fix the height issue, I moved them into deeper cups and buried the main stem until only an inch was above ground. Did I mess up by doing this? And was the cause of such tall plants the lack of direct light?
Fourth, during the transfer process one of the plants severed about half way up the stem, so I planted the top half. Will it survive?
Fifth, the plant that is showing the most progress now has areas of the leaves that are looking quite pale. What is this and what is the best way to correct it?
Unfortunately, I didn't take pictures of the dead plant or them before I moved them into deeper containers but here they are currently.
Thanks in advance for any help and for taking the time to read this!
