First time poster, relatively new user. Pretty new to the homegrown scene, so criticism's and suggestions would be welcome. Did a bit of reading on here, and a few other sources, prior to this grow, hopefully it served me OK.
Grow Room Info
Planting Medium Info
Seeds are just random bagseed, figured they would make for a fine test run. Out of 7 that started germination, 4 made it into the solo cups, and one was lost to grower ineptitude.
*One of the 3 plants have leaves with the tips missing. Grower took FIMming to a whole new level :X
The first node or two of leaves are showing what I believe to be nute burn, chalking that up to my starting in FFOF and having the GENIUS insight of adding about 1tspn of FFGB liquid to a gallon of water, probably too much and too soon for the wee ones.
At this point in time (about 20 or so days from solo cup transplant, first or second set of true leaves) they are around five nodes tall, very short and bushy IMO. Suppose they might be an Indica strain of some type, which would be fine given the size of my grow space. You can't see from the pictures, but the plants are already starting to bump the trash can walls. (If this space was used in the future, it would probably be for keeping a mother.)
As of today, they are being thrown into flowering lighting. I'm starting them small, not looking for POUNDAGE, even a single nug would be considered a successful harvest.
Noob Questions : First off, are the bottom leaves nute burned? No temp \ RH sensor is installed at the time, although one would be acquired if a more serious grow were undertaken. . .are these little ones possibly showing signs of dehydration, or any other grower negligence? Could one chalk the 'short, stubby' nature of these plants up to inadequate lighting?
Welp, suppose that's it for my first post in this "Grow Journal". Thanks for wasting part of your life reading this!
Grow Room Info
- The grow room is a 'twist' on SpaceBuckets, a ~35 gallon trash can. Lined with pandafilm, cheaply thrown together.
- One 4 inch outtake fan (80, 120 cfm for a >5 cubic meter area) at the top, with intake holes on the bottom for air circulation and smell scrubbing.
- 4x 23watt CFL 5000k light bulbs, plan on switching over to 2x 5000k lights and 4x 14 watt 2700k bulbs for flowering.
- A small ~5 inch tray of water + 3 sponges (a crude attempt at humidity control, as I thought the room was being vented too fast to keep a decent humidity range.
- Plants started in a homemade humidity dome, transferred to small transparent solo cups for a while. Final resting place are some 1.3L little potting plants, as seen in pics.
- Soil is FFOF soil, were started in little starter pellets of IDK what.
- To supplement these, FF GrowBig and FF TigerBloom liquid nutes are \ will be added to water.
- Water is storebought distilled, PH balanced by relying on rather vauge PH testing strips. (6-7pH).
