Back from a weekend trip and haven't seen them in 48 hrs. Gave them 6-6.5 ph straight water for a week after transplanting them. Gave them 1 tsp mirgrow rose food 18-24-15, 1/4 tsp planticillin 1-0-0, and 1/4 tsp bio-grow 1.8-0.1-6.6 friday night before I left town. Mixed with 1 gallon of water and used amost 3/4 of the gallon. I ph'ed it to about 6 and crossed my fingers. I got back late last night and checked on them. They seemed to have responded.
The two that were badly damaged seem to green up just a little as did the other plants. They didn't show much growth though. The two plants that have shown the most progress (probably going to be males) grew 2-4 inches and all the others showed something. I rotated them under the lights to see if that has any effect on them. I will be giving them water for a week and slowly go back on weak nutes.
Any idea on when to start to turn back the lights? I want to go 18/6 but the only thing keeping the plants warm is the light. It was -1 when I was in chicago this weekend. Am I letting them get to big? |
