Hey first time growing autos. I ordered seeds from seedsman and I started a Sman blueberry auto and a Dutch passion night queen auto.
-spiderfarm sf1000 led
-3 gallon fabric pots
-2.5 x 2.5 tent
-FFHF soil top 3 quarters
-FFOF soil bottom quarter

after 2.5 days they sprouted. The blueberry is looking healthy and on track, but the night queens first set of true leaves look kind of wilted. Can anyone identify what the issue could be? maybe I could have overwatered a bit, even tho I lightly watered? Idk, what are your thoughts? Going to wait a few more days, but I don’t wanna waste time with a bunk seedling.

You are running 16 watts per square foot. You should add at least one more sf1000 if not a sf2000.

Watering plants in their final pot is tricky but doable. How much are you giving them?

Both sprouts look fine, let em grow.

for the first 3 days until it sprouted I lightly misted the top of the soil around where I planted the beans and covered them with humidity domes. Then I had poured a little bit of distilled water (3/4cup maybe ) around the base. The blueberry is looking good but I was just a little concerned with how the night queens looking. Could there be any reason why her true leaves are looking Sort of wilted and curled down like that? I know autos can be very time sensitive and I’m just a little bit concerned.

Nice bro!! lol I’m new to autos and yeah I guess worrying too much . Curiosity got to me when I seen the leaves curled down. Your grow looks great! I’m thinking about adding another sf1000. But the tent is small, 2.5 x 2.5 really is tight. Depending on how this grow goes, I’m thinking about jsut running 1x Auto in a 5 gal pot. I have some purple punch I’m excited to run.

Dude i fit a dozen into 25 square feet. Your tent is 1/4 the size, you should be able to fit 3 no problem

Oh shoot, really you think so? What size pots are you using? And what medium do you run them in? I just had one ice cream cake photo in a 4 gal completely fill this tent up. I’m not sure what to expect as far as being able to lst all the plants together in this small space.. I wanna get the most yield I can for each plant

That picture in my last post was 11 autos in a 5x5. all in 5 gallon fabric pots.

Half and half of these dirts. Next time i would just do the M3 or ocean forest with some extra perlite.

One of my seedlings came out like that. It was behind my other two plants by like 3 days and maybe 7 inches through out growth. Day 36 now and she’s producing buds and is taller than the others. She’s about 4 feet while the others are 3’ 10”. She randomly blew up. Keep it don’t cut it down.

I will caution that I think medium makes a big difference. I started 7 in coco in a 4x3 and had to set up another 3x3 halfway through flower to move 3 of them to. Both tents were packed by the end. I think I would have been fine had they been in soil. I topped over half of them but otherwise I didn't aggressively train or prune them.

I was planning on only growing 2-3 in my space.So your medium was straight coco? No mix? Any brand you’d recommend?

Yea they seem to explode in coco.
