Hey everybody, i am currently in the second week of my first grow. I started with five feminized master kush seeds via nirvana. I have a 4 x 4 tent with 1000w hps with a dimable ballast. being my first grow i didn't to buy different lights and i learned that i could use the HPS all the way through. I germinated using paper towel method and planted into 1 gallon pots. The day before i planted i had watered the pots with Ocean Forest soil, got some run off.
Now 2 weeks has passed, all of them came out, 2 plants looking really good to me 1 seems to be lagging like half a day i would say, the fourth is like a day and a half behind the first 2. and the last one, well it seems that its got a N toxicity from what i can gather from the resources online. So here i am, I am not sure what to do. I have not added any nutrients. I have read about flushing the plant to rid of the excess nutrients. But i wonder if it may recover. I have been using my light at half power, and i read that in veg the plants use more N. So im thinking if i were to turning up the power to 75 or 100% will the plant use up that excess N. If that is even the problem.
Even tho going into this all i read about is over watering isues for new growers, after the initial time i watered the soil before planting i have watered the plants once and that was last week. I stuck my fingers in pots and it seemed to be dry to me at the tips of my fingers. I added a about 1.5 liters of water to all 5 plants evenly as i could. I didnt get any run off from that watering and heh that day has been looming in the back of my mind. Maybe i over water. I dunno. Today the top soil is dry, the middle (according to the meter thing i got) is moist and it get a little more wet all the away at the bottom of the pot. I have this green meter thing i got online for like 6 bucks that tells me moisture,ph, and light.
Well this is getting kinda lenghty, but i wanted to cover the background. Oh temps Avg is i would say 79 with light on, have hit highs of 83.6 for maybe hour or so. no light gets no lower then 72.
ok here are some pics of the plant that i think has nitrogen toxicity. its got the whole claw thing going on, and leaves bending, and curling on the edges. Well im sure you guys will know better than i.
here are some of that i consider the best one with all of them.
they are kinda stemmy, had light kinda far first couple of days but im thinking of goin to 4 gal pots when they get about 10 inches and putting the longer weak looking stem in the dirt. Going to also start some light stress training probably in a week or 2. thats my current plan.
