need some pointers a little help

Howz it. My plant is 3 weeks and 4 days old. Looking online and other ppl's plants are not growing to fast, more like taking there sweet time. I use blood meal and bone meal. Bone Meal is 6-9-0 and then Blood meal is 12-0-0. and i have been using half the dosage it says on the back for both. I have only fed them once though and that was maybe 6-7 days ago. then water the plants every other day and i water them till some water comes out the bottom is that to much? and my PH level is at 7 i just put stuff to help lower it but the blood meal or bone meal increases the PH levels it seems. my schedule is 21/3 and 4 cfl bulbs 6500k (they are bunched up hanging above the plant. and i think they are 18 watts each, which are 75 watt equivalent. Do i need a bigger pot? do i need more blood meal? ALso curious i would say my grow box is about 2 and half feet long and 2 and half feet tall and then about 1 foot wide. how long till i start the flowering stage. how tall should i have the plant before i change to 12/12.

Wat kind of lights are you using bro? It does look lyke its time for them to be transplanted tho cuz they do look a little small but keep at it brutha n they'll catch right up

I am using CFL that are 18 watt and have 4 of them over it at 6500K and well i have 2 more in the box that i can move on either side or place on top . I just raised the cfls around 3 inches above the plant (use to be about 1 1/2 -2 inches) thinking might make them grow more towards the light. and should i add more blood meal for Nitrogen?

MM put that thing into a gal container and watch it start to take off

This is my grow box could i put a 1 gal in there and do i need to add some bone meal and blood meal in the mix for the one gal?

So you have 6 18 watters?
n yea youcan try raising tha lights but not to much cuz wen they stretch they sumtimes get real lanky with weak stems so juss be careful

no just your favorite potting soil mix get both those things into one gallon containers a plant nursery will have them cheap , the black plastic throwaway type new plants come in, ask if they have any used ,i get my 3 gallon for about 75 cents ea

Yea at the moment i have 4 above and the other 2 are just laying down i can move them to be on the sides or above the plant, when i get back to them i will take a pic to show what my grow box looks right now. I shall be leaving probably in a few to get that 1 gal and some more potting soil and mix it with some bone meal and blood meal

i wouldn't do the bone or blood meal you take a chance of making the soil too hot and burning the roots

the meals have a tendency of swinging the PH levels ,the foliage on your one plant looks fine just give it room for the roots to grow

mmkay so dont even put a little bit in because i read 3a few places saying it is good as long as not to much and if i do how often should i put bone and blood meal right now i put like 1/4 tsp of each in thats about it i thought maybe putting 1/2 tsp of each in the gal bucket mix it together and put a little water. or should i find some other nuts

Well THANX for all the help people. I will be buying a gal from lowes and will transplant it. Should i keep the bone and blood meal and how often should i give the plant it. and then also how tall till i should switch it to flowering stage?

have to do what works for you MM no one can tell you from outside

Thanx alot Robert and Irod , u have been a great help i will keep pictures coming on how my plant is doing. Thanx alot

Transplanted about 20 hours ago into a new pot. Plant is looking a bit sad but should start looking better in a couple days. When i took it out of the old pot, the entire pot was filled with roots.

okay my plants are still looking quite sad is this normal, should they have not perked up a bit. do i need to change my light schedule a little to help it is about 21/3 right now

theyll look a lil off for a day or two but they perk up once tha roots catch on
juss give it a day or 2 brutha

thanx man, and this is my last question i think i will have. when should i start the flowering cycle because i here when flowering the plant doubles in size (friend told me)

i got 2 23watt (100 watt) CFLs and now have them hanging above the plant with 4 18 wat (75 watt) CFLs on the side. So a total of 118 Watts of CFL bulbs hope that is good enough. Do i need to add more?
