Hi All
When do you start putting a age on your seedlings is it when you first put them in a pot after germinating or when they first pop out of the pot they in

When they break the soil its day one. If you called it day one at a week after germination thats just a complete lie possibly so the grower can look like he grew a bigger plant in a shorter time.

Your doing Great.

Its all a learning Curve and every grow we do we learn more.

Try general store purchased Seedraising mix to germinate your seeds and basic general store potting mix from veg to flower to harvest , with no nutrients just plain tap water.

after that grow then you can take experience from that and adjust as needed.

Too many people get information and try run before they can crawl.

Basic general store purchased potting mix and plain water can grow pretty decent weed, it doesn't have to be complicated.

Keep it as simple as possible, Store purchased potting mix and lots of light, let the plants grow natural, no topping, no training.

No rollitup tips

Just water them every 6 days till harvest.


That is what every Newbie should do if they haven't had at least 2 sucessful harvests already.

Ok so here is where you are going totally wrong.... like every other newbie before you.

Forget PH, read my post. Basic Tap water... Forget Rollitup tips. forget PH, just basic tap water. Tap water is 8.4 , 8.5 that is totally fine,the buffers in the potting mix will adjust it for you. Potting mix grows all plants well, that is why they sell it in garden centres, it doesnt say adjust the PH on the potting mix bag, home gardeners don't adjust the PH.

Your issue is now light.

here is my post again.

@2Hearts

You can't over water if your plant is in the correct Pot size, and your growing media is free draining.

My potting soil overwaters easy, most can. If i wait for it to dry down enough i get perfect growth. Was the only thing i found i had to work on in soil even starting coco.

Those pellets dry quick its hard tt
o overwater them as smaller volume of soil.
