Hi, this is my first post here, I hope you'll help me.
I've got a problem. I'm in 8 day of veg phase and this is my first grow too. Today my light just turned off because of bad timer. It's turned off for three hours and then I plug it back to socket without the timer and switched the light on. My light start at 5am to 23:00pm. This accident happens at 14 pm and last for 3 hours till I recognized it. I'm quite scared for the plants because they're just 8 days old and I don't know what to do or anything what could I do better. Should I turned on the light after those 3 hours?? Or leave it off till next 5am or what is a best thing to do. I have no idea. Any information will be very helpfull to me, it can happen again. Many thanks guys.
 
dont worry. a few hrs here and there np. when in veg its really okay. the best light time for veg is 20 on 4 off. i had power out for 6 hrs in veg and nothing happened. in flower it isnt even a big deal. just change light times and give more dark time to make it 12 hrs.
 
im gonna subscribe and if you have any questions ask. wow you got advise from our modulator sweet. i can say this pictures help if you have an issue. so your cell phone or camera is a good tool.
 
Wow, I didn't expect some reaction so fast. I'm using this forum for a while and got every information I know now about growing from here. And yes I have some more lil problems, I'll upload some photo tmrw and you'll see. That's awesome, I'm very very thanks full to you guys. You boost my mind.

Hey guys so here are some pics of my little tent. It's 1x1x2m. Plants are 9 days from the seeding. Any advises will be really appreciated. I need to start from it's beginning. Because I never did this before and never saw it in my life I wasn't prepared as I thought. My first mistake, I bought 100l of plagron bat bio (6 weeks prefertilized) to fill up my 11l pots plus mixed it with lil more perlite. I started to veg them in this soil which I know now isn't good for veg state because it's prefertilized and can burn the plants. Too far too late. They're in it.
Another mistake which I still laughing on was when I plant seeds into the pots and accidentally drop one seed to the soil and I couldn't find it, everything there looks like a seed. After 5 minutes I mixed the soil in this pot with my hands and gave there another seed, which I didn't lost this time. The problem was I had 9 pots and just 8 seeds now. When I ordered the seeds from the online seed bank I received some more free seeds of afghan kush ryder but it's for autoflowering ( which I didn't know again ) so I used one of these afghan kush. Other 8 seeds are critical cush by barneys farm. On the picture you can see 2 plants in one pot. That's the pot where I lost that seed. I swear the god I put both seeds in the middle of that pot, but both seeds are on the sides. I really don't understand that. Here becomes my biggest chalnge, I have no idea which plant is the afghan and which is the critical kush.
And one more thing, on the picture there is a plant what looks like it's a broken leaf and the shape of it looks different to the other plants. Don't know what to do with that or what happened to her. Many thanks for any tips what to do, how to makes it better. It makes me feel good to have a place like this where I know somebody will find a minute to help. Thanks guys if you'll share some secret advises with me.

Apologize me for my english, Im from Prague :)

Sometimes aggressive watering will move seeds around in the soil - not a big deal.

Malformed leaf: Again, nothing to worry about.

Breath bro, breath.
 
okay first dont water again till they are almost completely dry. no nutrients yet. as for the auto if you do auto then use a 3-5 gallon pot (11-18 liter) the deeper the better. do not transplant an auto. they grow 1 main taproot straight down. once it hits bottom it stops will not grow any more down. i would grow 1 auto so you know. i know a few who just do auto's. 50-70 day harvest. and you can get 3 oz a plant with 5 gallon 18 liter pots. the broken leaf dont worry. those set of leaves will come off anyway in a few months. they are feeder leaves in my book. i always loose the bottom 2-3 nodes of leaves. oh if you do auto they need 20 on 4 off for lights. they wont do good at all with 12/12.
Here is some bud porn from my flower room 3 weeks in flower

Thanks guys again, it's just better to hear that from you. The thing is 8 plants are critical kush and it's not autoflowering but periods and only one plant is afghan rider autoflowering. They're together in one pot. What will be the best to do. Is it alright to have autoflowering plant and period plant in one pot? You said the 12-12 isn't good for autoflowering, so is it worth to keep that autoflower plant or should I just throw it away. It's so small I don't have a heart to kill her. But if's necessary I'll do it. I can watch my plants all day, it's just very addictive :)

Your plant looks very delicious, wish to have a taste of it :)
 
move the auto to a deep big pot asap. or it will suck and also it needs longer lights so you will have to maybe move to veg area for 8 hrs a day.

That is simply impossible for me. I'm away every day for 14-15 hours, I've got a busy life. There's only one option. Keep it or put it away. My schedule as I read almost everywhere is to leave plants for 18-21 days in veg state in 18h light - 6 dark , but than 55-60 days of flowering with 12h light and 12h dark. What is going to happen with the afghan rider? Will i get anything from it?
Throw it or leave it in the pot?

Plants looks good, started to open new set of leaves, just the broken one looks still half dead. I'll post some more pictures when the plant will be little bigger. It's my first grow, trying to get out of it as much as possible, wanna do it the right way. Thanks for help.
 
the auto will only do half as good. but will still produce on the smaller side yield buds. dont pull it who knows if it can give you good bud. or if you have a MH for veg you can run the auto under it with them. would be a better option.
 
Great that's What I wanted to hear...Thanks for your time both guys, really appreciated.
Please do not unsubscribe, you're very good adviser, it's good to have one like you close if's something went wrong :)
 
if you gonna run the auto put in deepest pot you got asap. the deeper the root goes the more yield you will get.
