@ Flaming In the third picture you can just barely see some light discoloration, im sure I gave her a bit too much big bloom, if she doesnt perk up shes only gonna get plane water at her next feeding to see if it fixes it.

@ Lady - yeah i just noticed on my feeding schedule it wants to start using about 1tsp/gallon after reducing. Being the smart kid that I am i got the hydro grow big :P (all 3 game in a pack i got from amazon) but luckily the hydro version works just the same in soil, its the soil version u cant use in hydro. Ill start using some of that on her next feeding as well.

General question, im not sure if this is the best way to do the nutes, but basically ive mixed up a separate gallon of distilled for each of the 3 nutes, I water with plane distilled water then ive been taking a sterile syringe, drawing up some of the big bloom nute for instance (since i havent used any of the others yet) and i just empty it on the soil around her base.

Should I just be watering her with the gallon of distilled water I mixed the big bloom in? I guess when it comes to this Ive read where you dont want to mix all of your nutes together, you want them separate. So eventually id be watering her with all 3 different gallons or?

Read the post, the center of the plant now has a yellowish brown tint and it didnt last night so I know something is up. Im not ph'ing my water, no need with distilled water and dolomite lime in my soil.

The third picture I posted shows it. The center of the overall plant.

You can mix these nutes together in the same gallon of water. Good on you for being careful though because many nutes will cancel each other out or fuck up the soil when mixed together!

It's quite normal for the center to be a light green...all that growth is new! I had one that looked a little brownish / yellowish and even had purple hues...it went away after a week or so. She'll be ok...don't be so quick to stress every little thing or you'll drive yourself nuts with worry. I can attest to this :lol:

Anyways, her color is much better tonight and no more droopage. Everything going very good. Also, my 3rd seed cracked, just barely, she should be ready for planting tomorrow :) Gonna put her in to a 2 gallon pot with ffof in it, added perilite and dolomitic lime. All 3 of these plants will be taken right to harvest before I start on anything else. Will be working on getting my cab up and going in the next week or two as well.

*Update*

First pic is of my baby bubblicious seed i germed via paper towel in a dark warm place, popped in about 36 hours.
2nd pic, 2 gallon container, ffof with added dolomite lime, didnt add any perilite like i did my other container, the ffof seems to drain well on its own.

Other pics are of my first girl! (bagseed)
Shes growing much better, havent watered her yet today, i may tonight after work, shes working on her 3rd node of leaves, should be able to get a picture of them tomorrow, little small at the moment. Dunno why but as seen in the 4th picture she seems a little unproportionate, almost like one side of her is tilted more up while the other big leaf is at a downward slant. Oh well :) proud of her growth regardless!

She is adjusting her leaves to face the light source. That is normal. Plants will always turn towards the strongest light source.

If you want her to grow straight up, then the light has to be more directly above her.

I still think you should get some drain trays. they are cheap and allow you to see how much runoff there is.

Yeah shes much more straight today, the light was above her before so who knows why she did it!

Nothing yet on my seedling, hoping it will pop overnight, if it turns out this bubblicious strain seeds i bought from Attitude dont like it, ill get a back of light warrior and roll with that.

Question, generally, once the seed is popped, how long before it shows above the soil for any of yall who are following my thread? Trying ot find an average. (obv each plant is different.
