Hey everybody. Like the title says, first real attempt at growing. People have been very helpful.
The strain is Dakini Kush. 5/6 are in 3 gallon pots now. The 6th is in a 1 gallon. All are growing in happy frog 21” under a mars hydro sp250 18/6 in a 2x4 tent.
Tent has a heater and 4 inch inline exhaust running 24/7. Temps are steady 76-80. Running a humidifier on an ink bird. Rh has been staying 50-55. I’ve ordered a dehumidifier for when needed. There are two 6 inch fans moving air inside the tent.
Of the pictured plants 5/6 popped on March 8th. The smallest of those 5 has limped along very slowly until recently. I believe it was damaged after I accidentally uprooted it while removing its helmet in its first days. It struggled so much that I planted a 6th seed a few weeks later. That seed has already passed the runt.
I topped 4/5 of the original plants about 10 days ago. The newest plant was fim’d 2 days ago. The plants are short and bushy and I really love hanging out with them.
I have made some rookie mistakes along the way, watering too much early on, overreacting and under-watering later on. I think I’ve begun to get it right.
They don’t look perfect but I am very happy so far. There’s some curling on leaf tips...but I think that was the result of trying out some 1/4 strength veg nutes too soon. Ive gone back to straight pH’d 6.5 tap water and they seem to be recovering.
My plan is to top again in a few days, wait a week, replant in 5 gallon pots, wait another week, then flip...hopefully at under 18” tall. They’re at 8” now at best.
Anyway, I’d love to hear some feedback. I have a grow journal but that’s mostly for posterity, not a lot of discussions. Let me know if I’m doing ok, any tips etc.
