seeds won't germinate properly

plant 2 2018 02 18.jpg Plant 1 2018 02 18.jpg

that's my first to germinated seeds, both doing okay. thanks for all the tips guys thought you should see how they're looking.

what are your thoughts on them by the looks?
 
Well at least the hydroton will add drainage. Did you put two in the same pot?
yes i did. i didn't expect the pots to be that big when i ordered them. i wanted a large enough pot this is huge for my grow space only one fits inside. plus i tried two of the germination process given to me here and both worked great, so i added them in the same pot.

600w led light should be enough for both?

How big is the pot? And what kind of led are you talking? Like is it a true 600 watter.
Generally it
It’s generally a bad idea to put two in one pot but they are autos.

Great thanks, ill give them a try.

what amount would you recommend feeding the plants?
i start off at 150 ppm with seedlings, run up to 400 ppm in veg. when i flip them to flower i give them 500 ppm till they stop stretching.
then i go to the blossom booster at about 800 ppm (depending on how they respond to it, may up it or down it a little) for two weeks.
after that i go back to the citrus feed, and slowly drop the ppm every feeding till im at about 200 ppm, and finish off at that.

its a 15 gallon pot

600wt led pulls 120 wt of electricity

hope that answers your question

ooh man. i've been feeding mine at 800ppm.

wonder if i did any damage to them :shock:

Lol yah I went back and seen. It’s only pulling 120 Watts ! That’s pot is gonna get tight I use 7 gal dirt pots and they’ll fill those out so much you can’t hardly squeeze them at the end but again your running autos. 800 ppm is super high for plants that big.

my sour Ds are not auto flowering.

reason i got the ppm so high was most of the nutrient videos i watched never said how much to actually feed the plant, a few google searches showed a couple of growers that feed their plants 800ppm nutrients those plants was huge, Most anyways.

From now i will cut back on the nutrients i think i will give them plain ph water for a few watering and let some of the nutrients wash from the soil. then start giving them 200ppm of the 20 20 20 until i get some better nutrients in.

Do you think the large amount of nutrients is why they are so short ? the plant is 70% sativa and 30% indica . the seed info package.

How can i increase the good micro bacteria to increase root growth?

If those aren’t autos are they feminized at least? I usually only do super soil for my soil room but I don’t even run my hydro stuff that high. The cold is more the reason why they were stunted that along with no drainage so it didn’t have air getting to the roots and all. As for bacteria I like great white but you can look into making your own teas a lot of folks on here make them. I don’t I just mix up great white and some mammoth p and call it good.
 
yes they are feminized.

I saw a video on making good bacteria with rice starch and milk. i will give it a try on the next grow i think i've messed with them enough.

the only thing i really want to do is mainlining.
