Hello from Massachusetts. This is my 1st grow and heres how its gone so far:
-Found 3 seeds in a bag so I germinated them.
-Planted in old pots with yard dirt and found an old T12 light in basement.
-Plants were growing but very slowly and thin/long.
-Got 400watt hid light and 8' fan/filter.
-Plants started to die, I assumed it was the junk dirt.
-Transplanted into Black Gold potting soil and then I really thought they were dead.
-Started feeding w/Mega Crop.
-Now I think they are growing pretty decent.
I am using a closet as the grow room, usuable space is about 3'x3' and then I have another 3' of space where I hung the filter and use to store plants out of direct light. I didnt realize how big the 8" fan ducting was so I got a 4" reducer so I can vent with a 4" duct, looks better coming out the closet door. I still have to work on the door and have all the light blocked when they are in flower.
2 of the plants grew faster than the other so thats why I bent them, I wanted to try LST. I didnt plan on these plants actually living so I went ahead and ordered 20 seeds but have no idea when Ill receive them. Now these plants are looking alot better and 2 appear to be female so Ill see how far I can go with them.
*In the last photo I have a plant im trying to LST, should I trim off the branches I marked with blue arrows, to thin the plant and open space up?
of cannabis cultivation experience! Personally when taking cuttings the key/s are keep all your instruments including your hands or gloves as clean as possible, i personally put all my materials (scalpels, scissors, rooting gel) on a clean tray. I personally use clinell wipes they are used in hospitals do disinfect surfaces but there great for keeping your hands clean in between cuts, Use alcohol wipes to clean your scissors and 1 scalpel is good for 10 cuts MAX personally 6-7 cuts.
excuse my language! Hope i havent broken a rule already
