crooked grow :|

been growi'n for a little more than a week now so i thought i should put up a journal

FastFacts

• KC Branis Original northern lights
• used the cup of water germination method
• 4/5 germinated
• use 4 23w + 1 30w cfls, dont know which spectrum but i think it is warm white but theres no such information on the pakages

heres my plants after a week from when i first putted my seeds in water [day 7] the 2:nd pic is my 4:th plant and its looking crazy


heres the next day [day 8] wtf is it in the 4:th pot


today [day 9] the 4:th "plant" still looks crazy

and heres the progress of the weird plant's growth during the day



more pics tomorrow... probably

How exactly do you germ in water? I always use paper towel, im interisted!! Keep them lights close as possible!!

im really appreciate your comment

this is how i germinated

• first i scuffed my seeds
• then i put my seeds in a glass filled with 1/4 of warmish water
• then i put my glass in a worm and dark place and wait for them to "crack" open , so i can see a taproot commin out of the seed
• then i plant my seeds in my medium , root down doesn't really matter bcus the root will go downwards anyway
• and finaly i just wait for the first leafs to come up

update

yesterday [day10] no major different really


today [day 11] some of them are starting to develop a new set of leafs and the plant that started really weird is a step behind but looking pretty good anyway


All comments are appreciated

its not so much response on my little grow but im going to keep update anyway ... but what was i expecting

update

[day 13]

not sure but if the soil is dry id water, just go by the dampness of the soil....love the strain i really wanna try it out.subscribed

To germ in water i use a 50%water 50% H2o2, let them sit in it for 24hrs, then straight to the medium.

i wonder if i should add nutrients , i water them when the soil is almost completely dry and i spray them several times a day

i would not add nuts right now, its to earley in the game '
when their that young i only add superthrive to the water

things look good keep it up

too young to add nutrients, maybe another week, have you checked pH?

this is my first grow so im tryin' to keep it simple
superthrive : i dont really know what it is and i cant get it locally so i skip it
and i havent checked the PH in the pots but my tap water is about 7 so it should b fine and i live in Sweden so I can proudly say im using the "best" tap water in the world

your water ph might be 7 with your soil pH very different, perhaps bad for your plant. you can either measure the pH of the runoff water or the pH of the soil directly but measuring the pH of the water doesn't tell you if your plant is experiencing high or low pH

Update

[day20] my baby's are starting to become ladies ,well...hopefully anyway, but on the other hand, I wouldn't mind a male so i can make some seeds either

and heres a pic on my light fixture , thought u wanna see it, its not big, its not in the right spectrum but my baby's seems happy

good growing. it looks like its time to consider a very low dose fertilizer - maybe 1/8 or 1/4 the recommended strength

yea maybe but i think im going to wait a bit longer bcus i feel that im better safe than sorry in this case
