1st grow {bagseed} 2 plants - 6 weeks and 1 week from sprout

beeharp2001 · #1 05-16-2008, 07:17 AM

here's my start up guys I'm of course doing the CFL grow and I have a 6 week old baby that i recently adopted and then I have a 2 week old from sprout got pics. Give me some input and tell me what ya'll think. i have a little yellowing in the 6 week old in the oldest fan leaves and i think its because of nitrogen def., but I'm working with MG spotting soil so i really dont wanna add any nutes yet to the pot until flowering. I want a opinion on that plant bulb as well, that i have in my last pic. its a 125 watt'er and its blue on the glass but it seems like its more for flowering. i will plug it in and show some pics

Come on peeps can I get some luv.

whatever do have a quick question though. Just Noticed that after I transplanted bout a week ago I didn't really fill in the whole 10" pot I mean its a little over half am I going to have to transplant again or is there any way I can just put some soil mix in another 10" pot and gently take all the soil in the orginakl pot and put it in the new pot or it even worth it. Really thinking about it and seeing some root growth throughout the forum the rooting system is gonna get pretty deep and I'm afraid I didn't accomedate for that when I transplanted, silly but serious f-up ya think Everything that I say is untrue, and frictional!!!!

to be honest that plant looks a little small for 6 weeks..

i think you need some more light in there - get that 100w in there asap.

also what spectrum lights are you using?

the plant looks a tad droopy - you may be over-watering it.

does that bucket have holes in the bottom to allow excess water to drain out?

Well thanx for the input. To answer a couple of the Q's. Yeah the plant is a little small I just adopted it 2 weeks ago from today and it was a window ceil grow. My boi didn't even put it outside, he had it inside his apt. In the window with the window closed. So yeah I would agree that for 5 to 6 weeks its relatively small. I have 4 23 watt 6500K bulbs on her, and yeah I did take that pic right after I watered her and misted the leaves, it was right when the lights were about to go off so I didn't want to burn her under the lights so I let her sit bout 10 min then put her back under the lights. I wana put her in soil that I added perlite to so the soil can drain better cause the soil I have doesn't drain well. Oh and yeah they have holes in them. Should I transplant and put her in a pot with airier mix, even-though I already transplanted once?

Sup peeps, just coming through with i small update:

Have some comments too. Ive been noticing that my leaves are getting somewhat big but there droopy. i haven't given her any water int he past 2 days. i did take this picture about 10minutes into the dark cycle. but other then the very bottom leaves. everything seems to be looking she's very bushy and no leaves are continuing to yellow and she's green as hell. Is it the way that i may have my CFL's projecting on her. i have 2 on the top and everything else is around her surrounding her with light. would that case the leaves to almost sag in that position to receive the most light possible. if yu look in the 2nd pic is shows the position of the lights.

the little one is getting big, i think that she got burned because the pot fell over and i really dont know how long it was knocked over because i wasn't here last night.

here are pics: comments plz

Cum on peeps. Any comments, something I know I could be doing something better. She's about 8.5" tall now when do u think I should flower. I have the 125 plant light bulb I was gonna use from GE to use with flowering its in a pic. earlier in the post. I'm going to light it up later and take a pic to show u the specttum it could be a 3000K or 3500K tops and I believe that mayb fine for flowering. Comments plz!!!!! Any thing I type is false and fictional

ok here we go,
1. fill the pot up with soil as high as you can (dont worry, fill it up to the first set of leaves if possible), because that bitch is stretched out of control.
2. it is having a hard time right now, it might be from chronic over watering, ph is wrong, or a thousand other things. i would read up on as much as you can here. but most likely its just gonna need to chill for a little bit.
3. sometimes teh bottom leaves die off like that, cut them off when they are over half yellow or brown. and just keep moving the soil up.

hope this helps for now ill be back later to see how your doing...... dont love your plants too much you will kill them

other than that hey look good, she would be pretty if she jsut perked up a little bit...

GL AND HAPPY GROWING

Yeah I would agree that she is stretched out a little bit, she was a window ceil grow. My boi handed her over to me bout 12 days ago and she's been growing but she's not too perky. Where would I be able to buy any superthrive @. I filled the pots up pretty much to the top and cut off the dead lower leaves, but I really think she's growing droopy like that due to the position on the lights. See I have the fan blowing on her and the that folds the leaves down and that's the position I put the light at so she doesn't stretch out. somewhat bushy at the stem and still growing out but droop. I mean the soil is pretty much dry to touch, and I notice that when I do water her she gets really droopy. But I do it to point where the water just starts to drip out the bottom. I just added perlite to the new mix I put in there to fill the pot to help drainage. Thanx for the info too howtogrow greatly appreciated. Plz stay with my grow and help me out. Much luv ___________________________ Anything I post is false and fictional!!!!!

ive heard alot of good things about superthrive, even tried to find it a local hydro store. but i use soil with nutes in already so im skeptic. just use tiger bloom for flowering. isnt it just high in nitrogen?? sorry to ask questions when a question was asked
