Newbie grower here awaiting feedback!

Hey guys so this is my first time doing an indoor grow. Ive done one outdoor run that went horrible and decided to do indoor. I just got my setup with a California Lightworks 275 solar system LED light in a 3x3 grow tent. Temps stay at around 65 degrees during night and 80 degrees during day with humidity under 50%. Using Coco and smartpots, I have my light running 24 hours daily for my veg phase right now.

(ALIEN OG)


There are four plants in total. The 1st two up front is Alien OG [bigger plant] and Bruce Banner, both transplanted 4 weeks ago. I tried LSTING the Alien Og from the beginning and saw amazing growth and lush foliage with her by doing this. I would say theres almost too much foliage now as the light seems to not penetrate the canopy. Either way, shes the leader in the pack.

(Bruce Banner)

Bruce Banner is another story. I accidently split the stem on Bruce a week after transplant and saw major growth stunt. Now shes doing better and has more growth than before (lst'ed to go around the rim of pot) but is WAYYYY behind the Alien OG in terms of growth.

Cracked stem on Bruce.

The 2 in the back are chemdawg and blue dream. I won the 2 plants in a raffle about 5 days ago so i decided to just stick them in the tent to make up for the stunted growth of my Bruce Banner. They had real bad transplant shock, but seem better now. Slightly less droopyness.


Blue Dream

Chem Dawg

I plan on switching to flower a week from now but they seem good to switch now i think.

So with all this, im wondering how am i doing? I'd like to hear everyones opinion good or bad. I can take blunt criticism and constructive criticism, so feel free to chime in your thoughts in any tone!

i would wait to flower get them nice and bushy first and bring your sick ones back to health as far as your split stem it will live putting a strip of duct tape on in like a bandaid would be even better but either way it will heal up and turn into a knuckle smart parts are awesome if you can drop the temps just atlittle you would be perfect but there not in killer range either what are you feeding them? how much? how often? also i can see some algae growing on your perlite although its damn near impossible to over water with coco this could mean your keeping things alittle to damp alittle to often inviting other issues are you adjusting your ph at all?

I am feeding them Canna A&B nutrients with Botanicare Cal Mag and Growers Recharge. I used superthrive for about the first week . I use PH down to get it to 6.3 and using a PH meter to get correct readings. I try to feed them everyday if not every other day.

Aside from your alien og, the plants look rough. To much water, to much nutes for their size. Feeding everyday at their size is too mucho.
