Had some nice growth on her since yesterday as you can see..



Let me know what you all think this is my first indoor grow with auto's

Going good so far. Got awhile to go!

What light are you using?

What kind of Soil/Nutes?

Do you know the Ph?

im right behind you chap,just germinated mine today. it says on packet and site that it should be 20hrs light 4hrs dark but ive been reading and some people have 18/6 dark im confused!! what light you doing?

im finishing an auto right now and i used 18/6.^

LOL does that say ryan1918? I used to be pretty good friends with him, he used to hack computers for the warez group I was co founder of. He'd bring in thousands of computers every few weeks

was that from day 1 all the way through? and how would 20/4 differ from 18/6?

yep from start to finish all the way 18/6.. some people use 20/4..no big deal really. itll be fine on either 20/4 or 18/6

nice man subbed lol im doin some autos too brotha

How long do the seeds take to crack and in what conditions?

When the seed cracks and the White bit comes out.. Do you plant it downwards or upwards??

its tha radicle nd downwards so it can push itself out, be careful ttho its very fragile nd hard to get exactly down, my have gone in sideways nd came up fine

Sorry folks, never seen that there was replys to my thread..

I have came into a problem not sure what exactly it is, few leafs next to each other have orangey dots on them, and one leaf is like a greyishy/white dot ?? i think maybe i had the lights to close ?doubt that though.. only noticed them 2 days ago.. doesn't seem to be spreading "yet"?? and

here is some pictures of her, as of tonight.

CFLs can be a few inches away from the plant, I don't think its due to light or heat. I don't know if it does this with CFLs, but HID will burn your plants if you put water on the leaves for an extended amount of time. Or it could be nutrient burn if you're feeding, but it'd be pretty slight for only that amount of damage. If it is nute burn, it isn't severe and you probably won't even need to reduce the nutes unless it gets worse or you want to.

yeh i did not really think it was from the lights as I always have them at least 4-5 inch away. and there is like no heat coming from them lol.

At present i have not started her with nutes. Now that you have mentioned when I was watering the other day i did see a few speckles of water go on to her i was a bit clumsy i was stoned so yeh.... but i never knew this was a issue until now.

Where do i go from now?

thanks nusky.

Cycle is 20/4 at the mom.

yea its probably the water then, I always flick the leaves when I get water on them it gets rid of most the stuff off it and the rest evaporates

My autos 1 week old and only 2" high, I hope this is ok but I think not.
It's on a 20/4 light cycle with light 4-6" away.
Please help!

Just make sure its watered and let her grow. You can't see growth yet because all the growing is happening in the soil. She will start to shoot up soon just giveto her time. In flowering keeping the cfl's 1-3" away is the way to go, 5" is fine for veg. Just give her time and try not to over water

subbed, Im actually thinking about getting the AK47 lowryder so im very interested to see how this works out
Good luck with the grow dude
