So im gonna break down the succession of things.

Poped seeds put them into solo cups with seedling starter no pH

Transplanted to 1 gallon. No pH.

They grew fast than expected and I missed transplant by 3 days or so and the went hungry.

Transplanted into 3 gallon growbags with my normal soil. No pH. Plants went south pretty quick.

pH water with tiny amount (super tiny) of 6-4-4 and here we are recovered.

I have only pHd once. This past watering. It was citric acid btw. I dont use pH up and Down.

So you put them in different soil then they were originally planted in the first time?

Seedling starter, recipe 420 blue label for small veg. Recipe 420 red label for established.

So technically yes. However always how I've done it outdoors with zero issues.

Went to water. Checked all for sex and guess what? The runt I wanted to pull is a male lmfao.

Tuesday update
@Spiderfarmerled

Everything has recovered wonderfully. pHing my water and using the outdoor blend version vs the indoor blend version of my soil caused some issues at the start. Anyhoo its all back on track.

1 has show to be a male so its gone. Leaving 2 left.
Saturday


Today (tues)


Hoping to see sex on these 2 this week. As a just incase I have began the process of popping a mimosa fem. If one of these 2 show male I will run the mimosa with this starduster. Starduster will stay on track for flip while mimosa will just follow the duster schedule into 12/12.

One last thing. The light has been raised as high as possible. I still can not turn that dimmer past 60%. If I do the new growth begins to turn the leaves over to avoid the light. The light is strong and at 60% growth has been great.


Fur the lulz

I dont think I showed this here. Just incase anyone was wondering what I was talking about with outdoor vs indoor blend il leave it here.

Outdoor 420 soil


Indoor


So basically I used what I always used. 420 red label. Not considering the fact that there will be different needs indoors vs outdoors nutrient wise.

Flat out the red label was just way too hot. I do believe if I had used the proper soil meant for indoor use I could have avoided 10 days of lost time.

Live and learn.

Yep. I though of that as well but then I figured why not get 2 strains out of one grow.

I already have too much weed to smoke. Lol. Now it's about getting different tastes going.

Worst case I can throw the mimosa your way and you can do a new cross with the cookies pollen.

hell yea sounds good to me!!!!!!!!

I think you gave nutrients too soon and locked something out or your soil is too acidic from all the ph down. IMO

Growing organic I don’t use any ph down. I just use my tap. One of the many benefits.

Does that mean you don’t have to ph if you grow organic?

That depends on your setup and what you consider “organic”. I’m still trying to perfect a few things. My goal, and I think everyone who does organic, is to not ph your water. To let the soil do the work for you. I’m not using super soil I’m just trying to use organic amendments and keep my microbes alive through grows. I’m still at the beginning stages.

Happy New Year @Wizzlebiz , your first indoor looks to be going well. Good job man.

good catch

I stopped by and read a good amount of this thread - Have to say - There's a lot of good information on here and not all strictly about the SF kit. The lux meter app I had no idea about, and is going to probably forever maximize my grows. For that, I thank you.

Happy to be helpful.

Now. That will cost exactly 1 fem forbidden fruit bean.

They are hard to find so I will give you a week to find it

Saturday update

@Spiderfarmerled

Things are going perfectly Splendid.


Tuesday


Today (Saturday)


I have 32 inches left between the canopy of the plants and the light. Trying to leave 15 inches for space once stretch is done. So this week sometime I will be putting in the scrog and flipping.

That little mimosa in a solo cup is going to a buddy dont mind that lmao.

Outside of my own mess ups this tent / light have been nothing short of great. Easy to use even for a noob indoor grower like me.
