Hi there guys! Newbie to growing and just need some friendly advice please

[kzttv]

5.8-6.2 will be good for ph, I'd let them grow a little more before you top. Ok I see you're using AN nutes so don't worry too much about ph. Autos you can top around 14-21 days photos I usually top at 4-5 nodes.

We have mixed 1.5ml of grow , 1.5ml of micro and 1ml and bloom to the gallon , and using 1ml of cal mag !

Hope PH will be a problem if so I am not sure how to bring it down a little ?

So you would recommend I do top it ?

That's pH perfect nutes, right, sticker in upper left of jug
I use the A B sensi version, no need to pH your water like Penny said

And like he said, I top at around 15-21days also, about 4th node

Since you have a few of each strain I'd try top a few, and leave a few, do some LST and hope for a great harvest

Also I have been doing abit of research !

And i have realised that I should be using bigger pots for bigger yield ! Atleast a 3 gallon pot but at the moment I am using a 1.5 Gallon.

You think I should change ? Is it safe to transplant twice ?

Any help is much appreciated

1.5gal is small
It is yer 1st grow, so yer learning a lot

I'd transplant ASAP, but that's me

According to my research, the bigger the root mass, the bigger your harvest. Some folks are doing micro-grows in a cup or two of media. Some are growing the same strains in 1000 gal grow bags. You know who gets the bigger harvest My 2' X 4' tent is filled with four plants in 3.8 US gal caged grow bags. Your plants are going to need at least a 4' X 4' grow area as they are, and would love far more room if you put them in 3 gal pots.

I'd wait until I saw a root or two showing through the bottom of the pots before transplanting them, but only if you have the room to let them mature. Transplanting too soon will set them back with unavoidable root damage.

You can transplant to a 3 gal fabric pot would be awesome

Day 20 !! Grow room refurbished ! Thoughts ?

Will also transplant them into 3 gallon bags today.

Ordered another fan , plus another light that should be arriving tomorrow

Also thinking about topping them soon !

Thoughts ?

Transplanting into 3 gallon pots today

But hopefully the plants have enough room after I have changed the grow room !

Hey buddy was wondering what the temperature for my autos should be at roughly? And the humidity level which is ideal for growing ?

Kind regards ! Kz

Day 22 NEED HELP!!

Hey guys

So I am at day 22 of growth now

Last night I transplanted them into 3 gallon fabric pots for 1.5 Gallon plastic pots

At first when I transpanted them they looked droopy and I really thought we had destroyed the growth ! Woke up this morning and I can already notice a huge difference in there growth

Humidity - 40 percent
Temperature -24 degrees
PH- 6.4
Nutrients - cal mag, 3 part advanced nutrients , micro 1ml , grow 1.5 bloom 1ml

Do you think I should top the plants ? Have never topped before and is it worth doing to the autos ?

Is the temperature and humidity fine ? And overall for day 22 are they looking ok ?

Also I just got a new 300w viperspectra, so now there is a 300w mars, and a 300w viperspectra LED, we have taking away the 300w CFL for now untill the plant gets abit bigger and needs more light thoughts ?

I mean I transplanted them into 3 gallon pots haha !

Like I suggested before

I'd top one or two of each strain, too see how each one performed

But do it soon, less stress the better down the road

Ok cool , So do you think they are ready to top ? And how do you think they are looking after transplant ?

Also what do you think about the new light ? Will the 2 x 300w led lights be enough for now and then I can add in the 300w CFL ? At a later stage

 

[Chris Scorpio]

Can't really tell by the pics but I top at 4 or 5th node

Those lights cover a 2'x2' area each,no matter what's under them, so keep that in mind. No clue on the CFL . They need to be so close they may do more harm than good

They look perky so they must be happy

Perfect also any advice on how I can get more people to follow my journal

Aswell I was wondering how I can change the picture that comes up everytime I post , it always comes up with the picture of one of my first posts instead of updated ones as I update the journal do you know what I mean ?

Can't make people follow you...lol...be social in other journals,don't spam them,just look at ones that interest u.
Your new so it will just take time. Always quote people when they comment and thank them, they get notifications of the quote.

Be patient, like in real life, you can't force people to be yer friend

The photos change themselves, you can't change it, add pics and the journal pic changes eventually

Day 22

Hey guys so just wondering what you guys think it's been a day since I transplanted them into 3 gallon pots !

One of the plants seems to have droopy leaves , anyone know why that could be ?

The 2 x 300 w LED lights are 24 inches away from the plants , is that to far ?

 

[KingJoe83]

Hey 24 " should be perfect. If just transplanted just a It I'd shock stress give it two day or so. Be reaching to the green cannabis lords above buddy . love that square fabric pot want to get a few of those myself .
