Hi guys,
Newish grower here wanting to share something I found interesting, experienced growers might not.
I am doing a 5 plant outdoor grow of Jack Herer Autos from Crop Kings. As an experiment I used two soil types (store bought mixes) and different containers, pots and bags.
After some initial struggles (seedling nute burn I believe) the plants finally started rolling, but unfortunately have all started budding before reaching any decent size. The three in pots I had actually given up on at one point and its why I just threw them in pots I had lying around instead of going out and buying grow bags for them.
What I find interesting is the difference between plants 2 and 3. Plant 2, grown in Pro Mix Organic is distinctly darker green than plant 3 grown in Miracle Grow Organic. Plant 2 is the same colour as 1, 4 and 5 (all also grown in Pro Mix). Both two and three have reached almost the identical height. Both are in 7 gal smart pots.
Does anyone have any ideas as to the cause of the colour differences? Also, which is closer to the "correct" colour? I hope the differences show up on the pictures, as they are very noticeable in person.
