Cute :) I do see a bit of twisting to the first set of leaves... After what I went through with mine, I'd probably just let it go unless it starts to get worse :P

Lol yeah I hear you. Same deal with me learning as I go.. but of course I'd likoe some nice buds if I can get them!! ;)

But like with mine, the leaves twised and i gave her some magnesium. Then she got worse and i dont know if her sickness progressed or if I actually hurt her with the magnesium. You know? So thats why I'm saying wait. Wait until you know theres a real problem to avoid over doing it and causing a problem! One thing Ive learned so far in my grow is to try not to obsess over it and let it do its thing lol
 
Looking good Tha Nube!
i agree with Xinjun, keep an eye on it and don't do anything drastic. It's much easier to make very subtle adjustments to your watering, lights or nutes than trying to fix a hasty over correction. Plus Mother Nature is pretty good at taking care of things too. I would just keep a close eye for now.

ok so a quick update, finally got a higher kelvin bulb was beginning to suspect that tha slight twist to tha leaves was because of only have 2700k on her, now i have a 60 watt 6000k right above it along with three 20 watt 2700k. gave a real watered down dose of 2-2-2 nutrients and the plant loved it, no nute burn or anything. Quick question do you feed nutrients every time you water?? i generally wait for the soil to dry up a bit then water thoroughly and so on. also ordered some bud candy wich i guess promotes flowering and also gives the plant sugars and other science like stuff to sweeten and enhance overall yeild , should be interesting. Ill putt up some pics in a day or two:) lookin forward ta see your guys babies 2 lol i want ta see the critical X) lol

On the liquid nutes that I bought, they gave a dosage for how much to put in a litre of water. So I did that and been watering my plant with it ever since. Not sure if that's a good idea, though. I think other people feed every other water.
 
I have read that too about nutes every other water but i give em nutes almost every time (like 3 out of 4 waters). And I water about every other day, I heat almost exclusively with wood so the place is real dry. Wood heat sucks the moisture out of everything. I'm using the recommended dosage on the package of 1/4 teaspoon / gallon and have been watching very closely (since day 1) for nute burn. But my plants look fine to me so if it ain't broke....

As far as the lighting goes... I think Lumens are more important that wattage. Count the lumens per bulb to see how much light each is giving off. I think the wattage is just telling you how much electricity you are using. For example a 60 watt incandescent bulb will give off a different amount of Lumen than a 60 Watt fluorescent. I have read you want between 2,000 and 5,000 lumens per sq ft or plant. More light=better plant. The kelvin is the color of light, high number is brighter and cooler white like summer while the lower numbers are warmer like fall (bud time).

i have never heard of that bud candy. I'm interested to see how that works.... Keep us posted!

so here it is today;/ do you think shes growin slow?? anyways i started a auto blueberry in the paint bucket , kinda ghetto lol but use what ya got, and you can see the new bulb in the pic its the cooler white so i think shell appreciate it. and the bud candy came with a sample pack of bat guano which i guess is poop;// ... but it said its high in nitrogen which is good for veg growth, next water i think ill put it in and see how it works

so in lookin around at other journals on this site i come to the conclusion my setup is shit lol but like tha name says ima nube;/... just hope ta get some buds. anyway i checked on my baby a little bit ago and was stoked to see leaves starting at the first two node areas , and the auto blueberry just broke surface, alls good so far depending on how these first few seeds go for me i might try getting some better equipment anyways ill have pics up on tuesday;///

ok im a tad bit nervous, my older plant has recently been growing alot quicker and it was watering time, so i upped the nutes to about 3/4 strength along with a little bat guano, i always water a little first then do nutes so they arent just up top but get down to the roots... i hope this extra bit of food helps and not the opposite!! ill be watching her closely now ... what would be the earliest sign of nute burn??

i couldn't wait , seems like it exploded for just 5 days at least to me:mrgreen: the super hash is the bigger one and the auto blueberry just popped up a day or two ago. Not really any problems other than a few leaves kinda curl at the edges i mean they look healthy... maybe lights need to be moved up some??

thats my best guess i moved the light up a little more today, there is alot of growth going on at the node regions still, am wandering when it will start to flower it being an auto and all soon?

quick update all looks good, not the tallest plant in the world but it has very tight nodes and the growth around them recently is just crazy lol , but im pretty sure it finally started to flower, and it definately has a smell now .. ill have some pics up in a day or so:blsmoke:
