Ah thanks I've been trying to figure that out. Well either way I need the ph solution. Any knowledge of using both cal/mag or other micro nutrients along with the Grow Big or should I do it in a seperate watering/feeding?

 

[Flaming Pie]

Some nutrients include micro nutrients with the macro. (Grow big bottle says it contains trace minerals. idk if that means micro) All I know is you need to be careful not to over fert with any nutrient or you risk locking out other nutrients.

 

[Flaming Pie]

Oh i just read that it contains micro nutrients, so you shouldnt need to add any. http://foxfarmfertilizer.com/products_liqfert1.html

 

[Flaming Pie]

btw i dont see any signs of deficiency in your plants. a little nute burn. so i would slow down a bit on the ferts.

 

[balactus]

Hm well tomorrow I should grab me some pH solution as well as new pots. Man I really wish I didn't have 3 plants, I can only really fit 2 comfortably. I can't find pots the sizes for 3 plants to fit that are really much bigger. You think 1quart pots would fit in a 1.1ft space length wise?

This grow big has everything I would need, what I meant by micro nutrients I guess I just meant trace elements. It doesn't have any calcium in there though.

Ya know what I think it is then, I need to flush them with some pHed water. I've been using straight distilled the whole time into FFOF soil. I think its just too concentrated right now.

 

[Flaming Pie]

don't need to flush. you already overwatered once. leave em alone a day or two. Then ph your nutrient water and keep between 5.5-6.5 and you should be fine.

stop doing too much to your plants sometimes u can overcare for them and do them more harm

I thought you died. Welcome back. Alright well my worry is with the small one with the most burns. So when you say pH the nutrient water you mean add pH solution to nutes or you mean feed then water with pHed water?

QUESTION: When should I transplant them? Mind you they are in Dixie cup sized pots that had been cut down a little bit. Its coming up on the end of week 2. Also I am probably going to have to keep them in a relatively small pot even when transplanted because of lack of space. Next grow I'll only be sticking to 2.

Can always count on you being up as late me, being a night owl sucks sometimes though.

Packin a bowl then I'll put the picks up in a couple min. For someone who has never grown anything besides lima beans in the 1st grade I am pretty happy to see them growing and they are giving off a hint of marijuana smell when rubbed against.

dont rub up against them
im sober and cant sleep
trying to quit drinking lol

what was your yield on them lima beans?

 

[balactus]

I've been rubbing the leaves here and there checking to see if their texture changes. Like my smallest looking ones leaves in its first set are drying out and lots of burn marks. Spreading also to the next set starting at the tips. I'm glad I never got big into drinking but now I smoke all the time lol so theres the trade off.

smoking is way better for u
and stop rubbing leaves for real when they get trics u will rub them off

 

[balactus]

No you're right I won't anymore lol. The little one is getting trics along it already. At least thats what I think they are are, the little white dots showing along them.

Anyways here is what I got thus far.

The sickly one.

Coming up on 2 weeks with them since sprouting.

Also I have about 1.1ft across of space to work with as well as 8inch wide so I am not sure how big I can go as far as fitting 3 pots in there.

getting close to needing transplanting

 

[balactus]

I was planning on waiting until I transplant, but when is it possible to start topping/fimming? Should I wait one more node before I start?

[balactus]

Lol yeah if you're gonna drop drinking cause you can't sleep I don't think caffeine is the right substitute you're looking for.
