    1st Grow (mini plants)

    Turns out I just pruned rather than full defoliate. Seems to have made her neither up nor down.

    1st Grow (mini plants)

    Thanks man. Yeah the leaves have always slightly curled at edges on one of them - decided just to let it be as seems happy enough. The LED is the 5 watt version. Seems to be ok, though I have nothing to compare it too.

    1st Grow (mini plants)

    Well, in the interest of science, I decided to defoliate one of the girls. And left one as is. Well, maybe a leaf or two...

    Haha...just got robbed there - needs must and all that. Sparking a home grown is the dream, self sufficient with quality control. Cheers for the advice dude.

    1st Grow (mini plants)

    Cheers Steff, aye defo going to try bigger pots on next grow. Had these poor ladies in a sealed box with no fan and kept the nutes at seedling level for about 1st 6 weeks! No wonder they were struggling man... Another auto bean popped and a bag seed on the cusp so hopefully be a different grow...

    Thanks mate - upped their nutes big time and have the wee fan blowing away. Seems to have given them a wee boost.

    Thanks for the advice Roo, much appreciated. It's certainly a learning curve! Will be making a DIY carbon scrubber for the inevitable stink. Onwards and upwards.

    Thanks Roo, thought the autos would be good for a first timer but will be going photos for sure the next time. Tons of old bag seed kicking about so will try them as well. How comes reg are better than fem? Surely regular are a lottery as to whether you get male or female?

    Cheers abe, I thought green house seeds were big shots - seen chat about them being cannabis cup winners or something. Hey ho, we live and learn. Was going to get feminised photos next time. Surely that's better than regular where half the beans might be males, no?

    1st Grow (mini plants)

    Thanks vos. This was my schoolboy error to begin with, kept them in sealed box for about first 5 weeks and think that really stunted them. Now, keep the door ajar and occasionally have a wee cheap fan blowing on them. Every day is a school day...

    1st Grow (mini plants)

    Cheers hotrod, had the light closer to begin with but thought the leaves were beginning to curl up a bit. At the moment, the light is closer than manufacturer's min distance. Will lower it and see how they fair.

    1st Grow (mini plants)

    Hello folks, Hope you're all well. Been on the forum for a few months - this is 1st post though. About 8 weeks into 1st grow. 2 autos in DIY box in the cupboard, dimensions roughly 400mm wide, 900mm deep and about 1200mm high. Using the Chinese LED that shall not be named (marshydro 300w...

    Cheers Ghetto, had them closer but thought the leaves were beginning to curl up a bit so put them back. Think the Manual says 800mm so already closer than that.
