New grower

Why dont you start a grow journal for your plants? People here can advise and help you with your questions as your plants grow. I found the whole fun of growing is the learning experience. Think ahead to where you are going to keep your plants, in a cabinet? your bed room, garden etc Dont forget they are gonna get big depending on the strain and smell when they start to bud

I've done a good amount of research so I'm learning, I know they smell when the start to bud but I've read in plantey of places you can induce budding by changing the light cycle to 12/12 at whatever height you want your plant so I was gonna wait for it to get a reasonable height then induce flowering because I'm sorta in texas and at my moms house so its honestly just a one time thing until I get my own place, or my sister moves out.. but I as going to put it in my closet.

Journals in Progress

cool dude

 

[marcus3883]

. Is this normal guys?

 

[The303Stoner]

if you could put one light on each plant it would help their a little stretchy but seed do that. good baby food is thrive alive b1 (sea weed)or big bloom(earth worm cast/guano tea , and molasses is good to. I also like ashes like two bowls worth 1/4 tea spoon in a half gallon of water. root booster etc. also work

 

[The303Stoner]

I know crap about micro activity dude (over to Stoner ), as for sun if its brighter outside than under your bulb i'd go for it just make sure they get light cycle of 18/6 atm (i use). 18 hours light 6 dark.

Earth worms in your soil or earth worm casts just a little on top of your soil will do wonders to old bags of soil that have been dried out(killing the soil life sitting at the store or warehouse)

. I used this is that bad for the plant or am I straight?

 

[David Bowman]

It is not ideal and could easily burn your plants. I currently use the Fox Farms Trio, Big Bloom, Grow Big, Tiger Bloom, but there are numerous other choices out there for you to try.

. This plant has been like this since this morning. And hasn't done anything since I added plant food

 

[marcus3883]

the plant in the midle looks like its improved. Oh and also somehow my plants got knocked over, not the middle in this picture tho,

 

[marcus3883]

. This is one of the plants that fell over an out of its soil, I planted it deeper an it seems to have grown since I put the plant food in

you can use MG just let the plants grow 2 more weeks before you feed them

Are you using the lamp in the photo to grow?

 

[marcus3883]

Its not only option for now yes. This is kinda just an experimental grow, hopefully I cany make some hash with the end results, but yea I asked my mom about MG An she said just to not use it so much an it won't burn the plant, so hopefully I don't kill em, except I think the bent one is gonna die in the end anyway.

 

[marcus3883]

I meant its my only option right now, but I've seen videos of peope growing with cfls that hav lower wattage then mine, but is it cause my lights in a bedside lamp? I putaluminum fool on top all around the lamp shade, under the plants and I used a window sun reflector around th whole light to reflect any other light

 

[David Bowman]

Aluminum foil is not the best reflector, better to use mylar or those thermal survival blankets. I've heard Panda paper is also good or anything that is flat white to reflect light.

 

[marcus3883]

It looks like it reflects the light back? Will flat white really reflect better than that? I used the underside of the foil, not the top
