My First Grow!

Foolet · Jul 31, 2011

I planted it root down, as suspected the little girl popped her head out this morning. I started germinating a bag seed last night too. I may sound evil but I am going to experiment with the bag seed very much. The fast bud I am only going to LST. Nothing to really bother posting pictures about... My main plant that I am going to harvest very soon, do you think feeding it ONLY pure ph'd water for 2 weeks will be okay instead of giving it like gallons of ph'd water and drowning it?

yeah you'll be fine. you don't have to pour as much in if you do only water over a period of 2 weeks. it's what i'm doing now...basically. just water and molasses

I am calling a 8g harvest

I can't image getting anything above that.. Just by looking at it you can tell not much. I expect a gram or 2 of hash though...

post some more pics. looks like you might need to get your bulbs closer if you can. what color temperature are your bulbs?

Foolet · Jul 31, 2011

I have 5x42w 2700k, 2x26w 6500k. The bulbs are like an inch away, I'll upload pictures in like 15 minutes.

I don't exactly understand what you are saying, please try to rephrase it.

I'm starting LST'ing in this tiny pot then moving to about 2+ gallons. I am going to Home Depot to pick up some items, I'm gonna try and pick up a nice tall pot seeing as I have plenty of height and I'll be LST'ing.

Haha yeah i've seen that diagram. It looks nice and organized but let me tell you it is not that easy. And honestly, autoflowers don't get big enough to wrap around like that. but you'll figure it out. You'll probably have to adapt and change your plan, no biggie. Dunno if I asked you this already, but why are you starting in tiny pots and transplanting?

im not shure must have been the beer lol sorry. but i do have a valid question though, well guidance anyway. at the point wer the stem is bent thers a little branch thats getting bigger faster, should i trim, or top it, or just leave it? i was kinda thinkin to top it in a few days, will it act like a top even though its not?

I only have 2 big pots at the moment and one is going to be harvested in a few weeks then I can transplant into the bigger pots as they become open. I went to home depot and picked up some Alaskan fish fertilizer! I know my auto flower won't fill the whole diagram but I can keep going as long as it keeps growing.

any branch you top will split into branches just like the top of the plant if this is what you were asking. Why not LST that bigger branch with the rest of the plant.

U lst the branch that is getting tall as well bro as seen in the diagram

Seems like they answered your question! Do you guys think I should start giving my new baby the Alaskan fish fertilizer in a few days, Seeing as it is 100% organic and only 5-1-1 seems like it'd due more good then harm?..... My buddies showed up last night with
- a bubbler
- 3g
-3 seeds
so I was soooo happy now I'll be growing 2 more fast bud and a lab skunk!

HighLife4Me · Aug 2, 2011

Yea 5-1-1 should't hurt at all. I start feeding my plants after 1 or 2 weeks.

Foolet · Aug 2, 2011

Can't wait to start the LST'ing. I would top for 2 main colas but I have heard since fast bud go into flower so fast it wouldn't have time to recover from the stress.

Alright, I'll probably start at that then every other watering session boost it a little.
