vertigo autoflower(first grow)

11 days old just wanted you experienced growers opinions on how she looks....me personally, i think she looks very nice but im a newbie still...as of right now i have 2 26watt cfls(daylight) but its in a small space so im not using any ventilation just opening the door a few times a day while the lights are on....ive had it goin on 18/6 light schedule from the get go...would like to know when i need to put the 125watt(2500k) cfl in there....i know that the autoflowers dont really respond to the diff. light but if someone had info on when i could switch the lights over would be great...hope you guys like it, i know im enjoyin watchin this little bundle of joy

thanks for the tip....im gonna wait about another week then transplant her to a larger pot then im gonna get tha 125w in there, as soon as i do ill throw some more pix up...

ok peeps i need some help....i know i over fed my plant for it to look like the leaves are burning(just on the tips) and there are little black lookin burn spots on the leaves.....HEEEEELLLLPPP! how can i save her and get her back to good health? i watered it a few times yesterday just to try and flush some of the excess blood meal out...it seems like the dirt stays dry now and im trying my best to fix the problem on my own but i dont want to risk losing her...help me out guys

Now might be a good time to do the transplant into a bigger pot. What kind of soil? Got any pics of the damage? It should recover.

yea im thinkin do the transplant also..2 small roots were pokin out the bottom of my cup...and im doing everything organic(soil,bone meal, and blood meal) i have some perlite to put in the bigger pot when i transplant..but the organic stuff is all from walmart...i will post some pics here in a little bit of the damage..its not too bad but to me on my first grow is a lil scary...so give me a bit and i will post up some pics.

anybody recognize these problems? if so can i get some help on how to fix it? and does anyone know how much blood meal to put in when watering. as of right now shes still in a 16oz dixie cup and going to transplant into a 22cup pot.

ok? is anybody willing to help a newb out or is it a lost cause?

ok so i made the transfer. she had very nice looking root system. the only problem i have now with my setup is the heat in the small area seems to get up around 90 and i dont want that, any ideas on how to keep this down so i dont bake my girl. i usually open the door on my grow closet to get the heat down but i dont want to have to do this unless its really necessary will have pics posted tomorrow of the transplant and how shes doin

well heres the pix after the transfer....a few of the leaves are still burnt up but i think she is going to recover... she has plenty of room to grow now so hopefully within the next week im going to put the 125watt cfl in and see if i can get more progress out of her but shes growing just fine right now.....new sets of leaves coming out everywhere....i cant wait to see how she turns out....if anybody has any tips for me PLEASE share them....hope you enjoy

just an update for anyone keeping up with it....

I'd put the 125w in from the start man the more light the better you can also put it on 24/0 as its an auto good luck man

Click to expand...

so can u do auto flowering with 24hrs of light from the start

*cool.. just put in my attitude gift request for paradise seeds: Vertigo (fem/auto)... cant wait to try this strain out

--Yes. you can put autos under 24hr light cycle.

--cheers

I have had my autos on 24hrs for nearly a week under florecents and i am going to put it 18/6 under 600w tomorrow, if i could afford electricity and keep temps down i would keep them on 24hrs

Nice, looking about like mine does. And they do stink really good.

yea that 600w will drain some power....alot easier since im using the fluros...if i bought enough of them i could have some nicer buds...im doing 20/4 light cycle on mine....theres a guy on here with this strain and his plants were a lot taller than mine...i like mine short and stumpy tho

heres another update for you guys....shes starting to fill out very well....ive learned a lot on this grow so my next will be better for sure but heres some shots of her today......
