I have an auto ak from g13 but it was stressed during seedling to 2nd week but Im working thru it. New grow PE is gonna be better hopefully now that I got a little more knowledge and experience.. Do you have a soil recipe I can start that germinating pineapple express or do seeds go str8 into base soil and then transplanted to fertilized soil?

I don't know if you were asking me haha but I'm using straight Fox Farms Happy Frog with General Organics Nutes(made by Gen Hydro) I got the sample kit so I have the full organic line. I germed in paper towel, and planted directly in the HF drenched with GO(week 1 from the feed chart, 1/2 strength) to activate the Mycorrhizah. I haven't started feeding yet except for the initial drench, I've been starting to feed when they have their first true leaves fully formed.

I have promix bx and Im also using the GO Line from General Organics. Germinated 2 days ago, I soaked my soil beforehand and this morning the root was ~1/4in long so they're in the dirt now under the sun. I'll post a pic as soon as they sprout and I think I'll do the same and wait until they sprout to feed but I didnt soak with nutes before planting seed, will it be ok until transplant?

Yep, the seed contains all the nutrients that a seedling needs to pop above the soil. I just pre-nute so the Mycorrhizah are super happy when they wake up.

Edit: Here's the data sheet for ProMix BX: http://www.growercentral.com/UPLOADS/PDFS/pro-mix bx tech sheet.pdf it says to start adding nutrients within 7 days of planting.

She's a bit behind in growth, the G13 is twice her height.

Hey guys....going to have to back out the simulgrow! Going to put the baby in the 18/6 tent...noticed the bin temps have been in the 90s lately. I moved the bin to a diff location because I put my tent in the old spot, and now conditions are no longer optimal...going to have her back up in the Winter when it's not hot as shit outside. Can't really justify the cost of electricity just to grow less than optimal plants! I'm staying subbed up though and hope things work out for everybody. :peace:

That's too bad LadyJ, I don't think there are really to many rules so you should stay in! You should LST/top/etc her!

She's lookin' good LadyJ! Nice and green. How'd you come to the decision of 14/10 vs 18/6?

Electricity bill :lol:

But have also been reading some information about alternative light schedules...says that a reduced light schedule makes it much easier to switch to flowering without shocking the plants. Also, some plants thrive on a reduced light schedule the closer to the equator that they can be found...going to experiment with that notion and save some money on the bill in the process hehe.
