My first grow

This is my first grow starting with 2 clones and seedlings. I now have 5 full plants I put into flower a few days ago stuffed tightly in a closet. I switched from CFL to a 600w hps light.

Here is another pic if anyone notices any deficiencies or other problems please give me advice

Very nice first grow my man

love the plants, what did you do to them poor seedling ?

Lol not enough light and didn't germinate just threw some seeds in soil put it under a lamp light (incandescent) and then from there tried to figure it out. Out of those little seedlings three are still alive and plants in picture my cat ate the rest haha. And two are confirmed females not sure on the third yet. What size pot do you think I need I have them in 3 gallon pots and put them into flowering do you think o need to get bigger pots. There growing super fast since I threw them into flower

don't leave the plate full of water you will kill the seedlings, the soil needs to dry out, ( and keep the cat out lol )

The pot size is looks good for the size of the plants


put the seedlings in there own pot (1ltr is a good size to start off with)
try and bury all the stem, just leave 1"
the stem will turn into roots and help the plant grow quick and heathy
you need more light over the seedling to stop them streching

Those seedlings are now the big plants in the other picture I just included pics to show from where I started to where they are now. There about a foot and half tall now and only getting taller I just hope the 3 gallon pot is large enough to flower in. Sorry if I put this in the wrong section I just joined today

sorry fellow looked like you had some more seedling on the go lol
you can lift the plants out the pot and see how much roots mass there is
the plants stop growing roots 2-3 weeks in flower and redirct most the enegy into growing buds

so as long as the roots are not thick and soild you will be fine
never had a problem with floweing plants off in a 3 gallon pot

Welcome to RIU,I flower in 3 gal. Pots all the time no problems.

Thanks that has been my main concern. That and heat problems which I am working on.

heat problem ?
Your temps can go upto 35c without any problems, if you humidty is low add a swamp cooler as this will increase the humidty and decrease the temps

I just ordered a 400cfm inline fan and booster fan and will be venting into attic so I am hoping that helps the issue. And I thought about a swamp cooler and that would be perfect but I don't have the money or the space at the moment. But I appreciate the feedback.

No problem fellow,the fans sound great are you pulling lots of cold air into the grow room ( the temp of the intake air will make the biggest diffence)

My plan is to run the insulated ducting from my air conditioner thru the air cooled hps light and extract it into the attic. I have been using a oscillating fan and a box fan to bring in colder air from the room
Into the closet and the oscillating fan to spread it but still having heat problems

Here is another question, I use General organics go box and use nutes as directed is there anything other supplements out there on top of that that would be helpful?

I am having problems I have 2 clones obviously genetically identical and one has droopy leaves stunted growth and just seems I health while the other one(previously way smaller) is growing quick health leaves etc...same nutes same watering schedule everything?? Could this be bc of light distribution? Please any ideas or advice would help. There about a week into flower

Comes with the go box. I was going to say silica.

OP, looks like they're a little overwatered to me. Other than that, they look healthy.

Thats pretty handy..yeah man silica is sweet as fuck.just started using it n am amazed with the results...maybe some rizotonic (canna) most other stuffs a gimmick tbh. I'd suggest dialing ur shit in n then try other products

The go box has everything you need except silica. I've found that the chart they give you though... Yea it's bullshit. There's recommendations for heavy and light feelings on the bottles, but just like any bottled nutes, you gotta feel them out.

Silica is great for heavy yielders. Prevents a lot of crazy support fabricating in flowering and seems to help bounce back from supercropping.
