You can help #3 by Taking the seed off the leaf, just let it fall into the dirt, it has some biodegradable properties.

Water every 3 days maybe even 5.

2. Number 3 does look kind of wierd haha, just do the normal things, and please dont over water in this early stage.
3. Sit and wait my friend.

Hey everyone sorry for the long time without a reply I have been pretty busy. But here I am it's Thursday going to transplant today later on but before I do that here are some pics before the transplant. Nu,mber 2 looks great the others I'm not too sure about.

(1)Should Number 1 be drooping as much as it is.

(2) Number 3 just looks totally weird lol is that normal or is that plant probably not going to make it?

(3)Is there anything I should do right before I transplant that would help the plants out and is there any speical techniques of getting it out of the solo cups as not to damage the plants.

I also have planted two new seeds as the other 2 when I first planted didn't sprout the seeds when dug up were the same as they looked before they went into the ground.

1. You're most likely overwatering. Cut back a bit.
2. Looks like a retard... lol. See what happens with it though.
3. You could try cuting the cups open.

Hey everyone

Just got finished with my transplant was very scared but I pulled it off I hope they are ok. Yeah number 3 does look like a retard and had much less roots then both the others. LOL well any ways they have been watered a little and don;t plan on watering anymore till the end of the weekend. This is hard trying to figure out the water.

(1) Are my lights low enough I feel if I go any lower I may burn the plants.

(2) I know I should probably start the nutrients soon so I went to the store and wrote down a whole bunch of different ones so I could post them on here to see what you all thought.

1) 24-8-16
2) 12-4-8 (Liquid form)
3) 15-30-15 (This is what I found for flower blooming also this is liquid form)
4) 8-24-16
5) 14-14-14
6) 18-18-21
7) 10-10-10 (This is shake and feed pellets though)

Would any of these be good at all to use?

(3) Also number 2 is starting to lean to one side alot is this ok or should I support it? If so how should I go about adding support.

:joint:

Man, not even a thank you?

1. Your height is fine.
2. No nutes for 2 weeks from seed.
I'd get the 14-14-14 or the 15-30-15
3. You should have a fan oscillating 24/7 to help strengthen stems

Hello everyone,

Just letting you know that the plants are doing great right now. Uber I do have the fan going and the number 2 stem has got straight and we seem to be doing good so far.

Thanks for all your help so far uber you are the one that has stuck around the most. Was wondering you say to pick one of those nuts should I use that one I pick through the whole growth or switch up when I start flowering?

Also I will gather all the exact information about those lights and repost with all the exact numbers I'm on my lunch break right now.

One of the new plants I planted has just broke surface today so tonight I will provide more pics and updates for all of you.

Thanks again to all my supporters out there.

This ones for you :joint:

Well if it were me, and especially if this is your first growth, just pick one and stick with it.
And you're welcome. :-D

Hello everyone

Stopping in to make an update. Well all seem to be doing good right now. I'm not too sure about my third sprout "retard" It was laying over pretty bad so I put some dirt by the stem to support it some more I'm not sure how long this one will make it. But my 1st one seems to be doing better still drooping but I'm hoping with the water not being offered it will wake back up. Also I provided pictures of the two new plants I planted both have broke surface but nothing big with them has happened yet.

(1)My 2nd sprout is doing really great I noticed on the 1st node that one leaf has a little yellow discoloration is this anything to be worried about?

(2)I was thinking I will start nutrients Next Friday coming up figured that is the 2 week mark from seedlings and would hopefully be a good enough time to start them. I'm going to stick with the 14-14-14 i think or should the 15-30-15 be better or are they about the same? Sorry nutrients I'm not good with and I don't want to mess anything up.

(3)About how long from seedling is the best time to start sexing I've heard many different theories and wanted to get some people's opinions.

Well thats it for right now I plan on watering them tomorrow soil is a lil dry but I am going to wait until tomorrow then it will have been 3 days. Also new lighting system made temps run at steady 78 now and it's a little harder to keep the humidity up.

:joint:

1. I wouldn't worry just yet. Probably just new growth.
2. Just go with the 14-14-14 I say, unless anyone else speaks up.
3. You can't really sex until you put them into flower, and then it will take 1-2 weeks.

i wouldn't put the nutes on them yet man, they dont look strong enough to take them... and if you do make sure you dont give the full dose, 1/4 dose to start then move it up

sexing will be a long long way

put the lights closer as well and put some mylar (chip bags!) around the grow are it will help tons

Hello everyone,

Sorry for the long delay in updates I've been swamped at work and haven't really had time to use the internet much but I'm here and I have pictures to show you all. Everyone seems to be doing great. Do have some concerns though if you all wouldn't mind taking a look at the pictures.

(1)If you can see my number 2 sprout (I have the pictures labeled if you just scroll over them) That one leaf has some pretty bad nasty brown markings is there something I am doing wrong.

(2)My number 1 sprout is still drooping really bad and won't perk up should it be ok if I just let it grow the way it is.

(3)My demented spouter my number 3 seems to be doing good still looks demented but it's growing.

Also I have provided pictures of my 2 new plants that have started to grow

(4)I have a question about this whole watering issue I can't seem to figure this out. I've been trying to water every 3 days but I'm worried beacuse the night after I water my moisture meter reads 1 or even below that sometimes and it just seems like I'm not getting enough water to them but then I'm afraid I'm going to over water them what should I do:confused: I was thinking about watering again tonight but was going to post first before I did anything.

As far as nutrients go I went to buy the 14-14-14 well walmart discontinued it so I went ahead and got the 15-30-15. I'm not planning on starting them anytime soon but was wondering friday marks the 2 weeks from seed could I start then. Also Wanted to get down how I'm going to give them before I actually do it. The directions say add 1 tablespoon to every 1 gallon of water. My watering can goes up to 3 gallons if need be. But I'm curious should I start with 1/4 the strength and how often should I give them and just could someone please help me make a attack plan for my nutrients.

Thank you again to all my supporters if you all weren't here I'd be so lost.:joint:

This is the first time in this thread where I really can't provide much help.
Maybe it's because I'm tired, maybe it's my lack of knowledge.
Whatever it is, your plants need help.
Make sure you aren't burning them with your lights. If it's too hot for your hand, it's too hot for your plant.
Make sure you are watering appropriately.
Geez man, I'm not quite sure what to tell you

Hell Sadly to say tonight my plants have now moved on to a better place. I deem this first grow a failure and I shall say no more. LOL well anyways I'm building my new design I have in mind and hoping all of my supporters especially uber follow me when it's finished. I will provide you with links to my new grow journal once I get it all set up. Thank you to all the ones who tried to help me through this grow I just dont know what it was that killed my plants but I guess you win some and you lose some so i'm off to my build I'll contact you all soon.
