Re: A 12/12 from seed question

Theres your first problem....Anything miracle grow is trash for growing cannabis in my opinion. You cant get direct sunlight 100% of the day if your growing outdoors. All outdoor plants get residual light some point during the day. Your plants will be fine if you just leave them outside.

MG works good for plants you want to nute and run. They will pretty much have everything they need until 4 weeks into flowering, then you will need some P, K, Mg and maybe calcium.

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

Here is my plant after just waking up today. It is day 7 of 12/12... my camera kinda sucks but the second set of serrated leaves is starting to show. Is the plant growing slowly? havent added any nutes, but the plant is in MG potting sil that feeds fo 90 days.

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

It's a good idea to flush the soil good, then completely flush enough soil to go around the seedling. This will ensure you don't hit a hot spot in the soil and kill the baby.

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

so there is something wrong with the plant then? its been cool temp wise around here, the mid 60's durring the day and mid 40's at night. the only water its gotten has been from rain, but it has rained at least 3 days out of this first 7, could this be the problem? I don't have a Ph tester so i have no idea as to whats going on there.

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

Temps are too cold for seedlings to grow/ They may live, but will not grow at that temp. (Below 50f)

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

it is supposed to warm up next week, but i guess i can try and get a heater into the dark chamber, but i dont know how i feel about cardboard with a heater unsupervised all night long.

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

well I've moved the plant inside for the past couple of nights. I put it under my ghetto ass outdoor cfls. There are only 2 of them dont know the watts and I havent stripped them or anything...But it is about 72F in here and the second set of fan leaves has become much more pronounced. The weather is supposed to warm up so hopefully i can move this plant back outside soon. I hope I'm not causing too much stress to the plant, but its jut not warm enough outside.

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

Good move, just make sure when it's dark, it's dark.

 

[Stizz1e]

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

oh its dark....the plant is in a basement sliding closet...which is fine for where the plant is right in life right now...hopefully it warms up and stays warm though, because it cant stay inside too long. Im just not prepared in here for it, and i won't be able to move the whole grow inside.

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

the picture uploads dont seem to be working but the plant looks better after 2 warm nights...its outside again in the 70f sun. When the pictures are working i'll put up a shot.

ok so it was me that wasn't working right.

 

[Stizz1e]

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

so the weather around here has taken a turn for the better, 60F nights and between 70F-80F during the day. I will post another pic 5/27 at day 14 of 12/12 any info on how the plant looks would be greatly appreciated.

 

[Stizz1e]

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

here are a couple of pictures from today, day 14 of 12/12. the plant was tied down after these photos for some minor LST. I'll take pics of that if the growth warrents it otherwise i'll post pics next week again. Any opinions on how it looks or if there is anything wrong would be great.

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

Is my plant looking normal? I thought it was a little small, roughly the size of a standard Bic lighter at 14 days old.

 

[Stizz1e]

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

ok 2 new questions
#1 When LSTing is there a set amount of time you should wait between tieings?
#2 In a couple of weeks I will be gone for about 4 days(findin a place to live) would the plant do better being left outside under normal light cycle? or Is it better to be left in the dark?

Re: A 12/12 from seed question

so today is day 21 of 12/12... no signs of sex yet bu i just took the plant out of the dark, so we shall wait until later in the day. The stems of my first set of 3 fingered fan leaves are starting to turn red. is the start of a problem or is that normal? Also it seeing as this has kind of turned into a journal is there any way of having this thread moved to the grow journal section? Moose I'm looking at you on this one...

 

[Stizz1e]

so here are a few pics of the plant on day 21 of 12/12 from seed.

this is an image of the stem reddening that i was talking about earlier.

my camera sucks but here is a pic of some branching starting

and here is a size comparison pic.

 

[Stizz1e]

day 23 o 12/12 and still no signs of sex. moved the plant inside and under 2 cfls as I am going away for 4 days tomorrow. hopefully there will be a girl when i come home
