so this is a supposed Royal Kush strain. I had 2 seeds..safe to say they came from a herm so im hoping for fems.
started them in rockwool. rockwool got moldy and i found the rapid rooter plugs and did a transplant. ran those in a plate until i made my diy cloner the other day. figured id throw the plug/seedlings in there since they were like an inch tall.
the seeds cracked like 10 or so days ago. got rapid rooters 6 or 7 days ago and put into the cloner 2 days ago.
i was using just ph'ed water and superthrive. the cloner has MMMMIILLLLDDD flora nova grow and was running 18/6 with water spray 24/7. as now you can see its been 2 days and not much growth has happened but they are really droopy. i decided to turn off the misters with nutes to go to hand feeding with ph'ed superthrive water as im not sure if theyre being overwatered or needing nutes really.
i am noticing the understand to the roundish leaves are purple and so is the stem slightly. is there something im doing wrong?
my ph is roughly ALMOST 6. its a reddish orange so id say like 5.8 or close to 6. superthrive is mild too. im prolly just being too impatient as youll see in the last pic my plant thats done the best has shot a root out the side of the plug and its developing the spines and hairs that make healthy plants...
was using 26watt daylights but my town has the pleasure of a hydro store now so ive been acquiring 125watt daylight cfls in my own homemade hoods. i know im getting 2 more in 3000k either 175 or 200 watts. even another daylight spectrum possibly. the 4 noobie cfls are being retired for once i have cuttings to root in the cloner. going to build a tent out of a pvc frame and black plastic soon as well..no need yet as i dont need to seperate light sources.
so ill try and keep this updated and look forward to contributing. its been awhile since i was back
also you guys thinks im on the right track?
quick pics..sorry their from my phone.
