New Grower Romberry and Blueberry Gorilla Bubble

I'll watch the video tonight. thanks.

as far as the fit goes, I was really happy with it. especially since this is my first rodeo. plus I really didn't want to have to ship that giant fan and filter back and deal with that hassle. lol.

I can't wait to see how it works on the enclosed space. I set it in the bathroom and it took the stink out of the air in under 10 minutes. and that was not venting out. just running in the room. I am still in need of an intake vent, I think I'm just going to drill a few holes down low and make it passive.

Made my first attempt at topping tonight. topped the 2 tallest plants. 1 Romberry 1 Blueberry Gorilla Bubble. hopefully we see some recovery in the next day or so.

are the leaves that have the sides curling up an issue or do I leave them alone since it's not all the leaves and overall the plants look healthy? I'm trying really hard not to love them to death but i also don't want to overlook something simple and neglect them to death.
 
In veg, they can take a lot and come back. May get some delay in growth, but most times they can be saved. In your case, I do not know what is causing the curling. What was the last thing you did to them before they started curling? As long as you don't over dose nutrients. Water when dry. Pick up your pots to check weight. As a human you are curious and you will experiment with your feeding style(less is more). keep your ph between 6.0-7.0(6.5 optimal). Keep temperature between °70-°80 degrees, humidity between %40-%70. Consistent light schedule. You're indoors and won't need to worry about bugs too much, but always have an eye out. That's basically all you need.

1. I think i bumped the nutes up to 1/2 strength a bit early. that definitely burned some lower tips and probably helped with the curl.
2. after doing some reading and being a little more educated on coco, I am going to mix up some more 1/4 strength nutes and feed daily for 5 days to see what kind of difference it will make. I am starting to believe that waiting til dry is the wrong approach on coco.

3. lights have been consistent 24/0 with the t8 and then switched to the Viparspectra 300w. The last 3 nights I have switched them off for about 5 hours to let them rest a little. haven't noticed any difference good or bad so I'll probably continue that until I switch to flower.

4. temps and humidity have all been in those ranges almost completely. if it got a little higher, it was only for an hour or so.

5. as far as bugs, I have seen a few gnats or something similar in the house and occasionally around the plants. nothing more than normal though. we live in the sticks and they seem to follow you right in the house. :) I did get some yellow sticky traps that go on sticks though as a preventative measure.

If you continuously water them, your roots will be deprived of oxygen. Feed once or twice a week. She will tell you when she's hungry. In your one gallon pots I would suggest feeding only one litter of your nutes at a time per plant. Then, when it's time to water use a half gallon to leach the nutes.

but I'm finding the opposite with coco. I'm gonna try it for a few days to see what happens. With coco, feeding draws fresh o2 into the medium. I'm gonna try it for a couple days and see what happens. my plants haven't shown much change at all in almost a week. they seem to have almost stopped growing and I'm wondering if I am actually doing harm by waiting so long between feedings. of they have signs of over watering after 3 or 4 days I will resume my previous water when dry schedule.
 
well, round 1 complete. Mixed up a couple gallons of RO water with quarter strength pure blend pro grow and liquid karma and about 3.5 ml per gallon of CalMag Plus. it measures about 360ppm or so and 5.7-5.8pH.

I watered each plant with about 1/2 gallon of the nutes and then tested the runoff. runoff was right at 7pH. Hopefully we see some progress in the next 24 hours. I'm excited.
 
and, here's a picture of the little guys or gals after their feeding. Hopefully the next picture isn't of them dead. lol

what causes this? I don't remember this leaf looking like this and then yesterday, it appears to have shriveled up to half it's size.

Have you just fed them.. If so could be some nutes got on it

that definitely could have happened. I should probably be a little more careful with the nutes, huh? I didn't realize they would do that. I had seen where people had gotten spots and stuff from splashing. just not that much damage. oops. live and learn.
 
Yes.. Definitely would not pour any kind of nutes directly over the babies. It's only a small part of the leaf really not a big deal. Going to eventually fall off anyway.

Took off a few of the burnt bottom leaves, topped the other 2 plants, and did a little LST tying down.

I also took one of the clippings and stuck it in a jar to see what happens. my little kale plant died so figured I'd try this out. lol

I must be doing something right. they are all still alive. tonight while training tray and Inspecting the plants, I noticed one of the Blueberry Gorilla Bubbles had some roots poking out of the smart pot. I assume it's not gonna hurt anything but I sure am glad that I now know the roots are growing like they should. :) I sure do wish they would show some preflowers so I can figure out how many are going in the cabinet and whether or not I'm going to up pot them.

I’ve got little to no experience but looking good dude, will follow and learn with you as I’m currently just waiting on my own seeds for my first grow.
