Update (2weeks in) 1st grow

hey guys and gals, just stopping by with an update.
here is a comparison of my baby from the 22 to the 26, it is amazing how fast these things grow in 4 days...cant wait to go and see it in about another 5....below that is a picture of the one the light fell on, which is making a full recovery..anything I am doing wrong, pointers or criticism is welcome :smoke:

Something is not perfect... not sure exactly what it is.... but I suspect it is the soil... I would guess the pH is fooked.... what I see is a plan that is stunted.. and growing very slowly... each new set of fan leaves SHOULD be bigger than the previous set and the gorwth at day 22 SHOULD be VIGOROUS!!!!


Also.. the leaves have discoloration and the main stem looks week...

What kind of soil are you using..... ?

The good news is, the node spacing is pretty tight and the plant could recover nicely...

Are you pH your water?

cheers

Thanks for the important info, I do not have a ph meter, but the soil is Mr. Gardner stuff from walmart, I have heard of other people using it with success so I figured it would be good for me. I do have a correction though, its not 22 days, that picture was taken on the 22nd, so thus its about 15 DAYS from when I planted them. The main stem on the big one seems fine, but the reason the stem is weak on the little on is because its been the runt from the beginning and then the light fell on it and set it back.

You are right about the node spacing, because on the larger one it is quite tight and the plants seems like its going to be a short bushy one..just what I want.

Do you think its more sativa or indica dominant?

The water could be the problem, I try to leave it out for at least 24 hours to let the chemicals dissolve out of it, but sometimes I dont have enough time to leave it out and just pour it strait from the tap to the plant.

Thanks for the input.

COOL! looks pretty good for 15 days....

have you thought about transplanting to 3 gallon containers?

cheers
