1st Time - Indoors - 600W MH - 4x4 - GSC & Blueberry

[MyDogSpot]

I've been lurking here for a few years, and have never posted, but I am going to start a grow journal for my first ever indoor grow. Normally I have simply placed seed in my vegetable garden amongst the corn. I have never spent too much time caring for them other than my normal vegetable gardening routine.

Please bare with me as I know I have a lot to learn and will have a ton of questions. If you can help, awesome and thank you in advance!

And away we go!

1st Time Indoors 600MH 4x4 GSC & Blueberry

This is a Fastbuds GSC.

16 days old
None of the other plants have any browning what so ever.
I noticed this yesterday, before it's first drink w/nutrients.

Can someone please tell me what might be happening here?

I think the humidity is low... could that be a possibility?

Kind of looks like a mold or mildew issue going on.
When the seed poped did the seed casing come off by itself?

 

[MyDogSpot]

Yes it did. But I believe this one had a little membrane left on it for a day or two though.
I don't see any problem with any other plants either.

 

[Rifleman]

Kind of looks like a burn from a water droplet.

 

[smokers420]

Yes it did. But I believe this one had a little membrane left on it for a day or two though.

I wouldn't swear to it but I would say that is your issue going on.
Hopefully she should bonce out of it.

 

[MyDogSpot]

Ok I'll watch it to see what happens.
Thanks a lot!
Come to think of it I believe a drip of water did land on that plant.

 

[MyDogSpot]

Well here is the gsc that has been having problems after it made a quick sprout and shoot.
New leaves look ok, green but twisted a bit.
Still no signs of any problem with any of the others.

And it's sister.
Both have been treated equally, side by side.

Looking good overall. The biggest blueberry looks like it wants to be in a bigger container

.........

 

[MyDogSpot]

Ok thank you for the confirmation.
I was considering transplanting the blueberries into 3 gallon pots this week.

[redmud]

Yeah that's a good plan for sure they will explode for you after the transplant

1st Time - Indoors - 600W MH - 4x4 - GSC & Blueberry

Day 24 today.

Lesson learned?
Don't put my seedlings pots in a larger pot of soil.
I thought I was being so smart. Thinking if just pull out the plant, drop it in the dirt and I can cause less stress.
Well turns out every plant has roots growing through its drain holes that I couldn't see as they were sitting in another pot.
Result?
I damaged a lot of the roots during transplant... exactly the opposite of what I was trying to accomplish.

So I last night I transplanted and watered each plant into 3 gallon pots.
Watered each with 1000ml of rain water and 4ml of Aussie Tonic.
This morning they are still super droopy.
