250 watt easy ryder closet grow

wassup riu, i just started my first grow about 2 weeks ago and its going good so far.

i have 3 joint doctors easy ryders growing that i ordered from attitude.

i have a 250 watt mh light, walls covered in mylar, a few house fans (need to get an inline exhaust fan), im just using MG soil (moisture control or something)

20/4 light schedule for the autoflowers

they popped through the soil on november 1st

november 3rd was the first watering and the temps stayed between 77-84

watered again the 7th or 8th i believe, i just go by the soil, if i can stick my finger in about an inch and a half and its dry, then i water

watered again the 11th

and watered the 14th with 1/4 strength veg nutes, the next day they showed big growth and it looked like they may have had some minor nute burn, but i dont think its a big deal



the pics arent in the correct order, but im sure u guys can tell the growth diff. the pics where they r biggest r the lates pics taken today


and one of them has been a straggler growth wise the whole time, shes still growing, but not nearly as big and quick as the other 2, and its a lighter green than the others, anyone know if something wrong?

let me know what u guys think, thanks riu, happy tokin

different seeds from the same plant(s) will often just turn out different. With hybrids they can be totally different which is why a lot of people buy a lot of seeds and pick the very best plants that suit their needs.

They all look fine though.

I just added a fast bud from sweet seeds, hopefully she will break the soil tomorrow

i had one plant that was way back in growing in veg, but after about a month and half, it was the biggest one and is now looking fuckin awesome, so dont worry about it. some grow more the roots first then up i think (my theory lol)

overnight she actually showed a decent amount of growth. ur theory makes sense to me haha

growing great, its so exciting to wake up every morning to new growth. i think i look at them too much when im home haha

the fast bud popped through the soil today


does anyone know if these pots will be big enough for the plants through the whole grow? i went with smaller pots because the autos r supposed to stay smaller.

alright guys, heres some new pics, they r growing good, and i believe they r starting to switch to flower, i can kinda smell them, and the 2 biggest have tiny white hairs coming out like where the top node is. they r small and hard to see, so idk if its the sex or maybe just a budsight forming.

anyone know about that last question about pot size? i dont want to decrease my yeild because the pots may be too small

happy toking

It's pretty close, I'd say within 5 inches of the top

Your gonna want to repot them when they get a bit bigger. Bigger pot = bigger buds in the end. Looking good!

yooow am new i need help with my grow........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

easy ryders r flowering now

oooo and if they r already flowering now is it pointless to think about bigger pots?

Is it alright to repot after they have started to flower?

yea no probs, just be careful to the roots


edit: put them in same soil just to be sure, different soil could shock them and slow devlopment

Ok guys I think I may have overwatered, the leaves r really droopy and the pots feel pretty light compared to another pot that I watered around the same time. I have pics to post later when I can use a comp

Well I think now they may have been under watered. I filled the overflow trays with water and within hours they sucked it up and had already perked back up. I love how fast these plants react

looking good keep up the good work

get them airpots, i bought them and i swear by them now, they help for initial root development in growing plants and hasten the speed of your grow, they're also practically un-drownable in them airpots if you over water them it just flys out the air holes Top stuff them pots mate would definatly chekc them out if i were you.
