the time to switch to bloom, is when vertical growth stops. then for the next two feedings i overlap veg and bloom nutes. then all bloom till flushing. a lot of growers will flush between switching, that doesn't work for me , because i ues the espoma and it has a slow release, so flushing mid stream doe's not work for me. unless you show signs of stress from salt buildup, then you might have to flush em!:smokebudsatience is the key!

I am using a potting soil made for pot called Pot of Gold.
It has nutes and works well, but from what I read, that plant is a light feeder, and
likes good drainage, so I also added about 1/3 perlite. Once it starts to flower, I throw
a handful of extra potting soil in to add some fresh nutes every time I water.

It wasn't enough nutes when my last plant flowered, so I got Fox Farms Tiger Bloom.

It worked well, but I have been reading that some liquid fertilisers made for pot have some
weird stuff in them.

Still got a lot to learn, but I am vaping pot I grew myself, and that's a great feeling. Now I just have to get good at it.

Question. Can someone tell me if my stem is in bad shape? Its a light brown color and wondering if its a normal color or is it a sign of possible rot? I been spraying about 4oz or water 4 times a day and hoping its not a sign a rot as she is leaning a bit to the side after I accident sprayed her. Just concerned I might or over watered her. Thanks

Forgot to mention I am using tap water that I leave out for 24 hours and bubble the water from anywhere to 12-24 hours depending on time of day. Also ph the water to 6.5 before spraying the soil..

Don't spray directly on the stem/u'll get stem rot. spray the outer and around. let her dry out first b4 watering again. the roots need oxygen too.

no nutrients stem is still the same color as the pic as i posted earlier.. Is it a normal color? I'm probably just bugging out being that I saw her lean after watering and might of weighted that leaf down. Seems like she is re cooperated from the lean now after drying up. Noticed the stem is brownish ever since day 1. I was curious being that I thought it would have been green now. Now wondering if its normal.. Check out the pic posted above and check it out! Thanks

BTW this is day 7

thanks bro!!! Will definitely spray around her from now on.. soil is wet in that pic it was a early mourning spray. I moist the soil every 6 hours.. moved here a little closer the the light about 5 inches to the cfls and she is liking it also the intake fan blowing through the 6 cfls is blowing on her to which I think is the reason the lean corrected itself.. :smokebuds:

My bad on the 4th wk thing dont know wat I saw, :smoke: G13/ I sprayed em for the first two wks pretty much/then fed normally.

Yes What size pots you used I think I am using a 1.5 gallon pot its 10x9.. wondering how much water it will need guessing it will soak up 3/4 of a gallon but not sure.. Thats my next challenge to figure out. Will probably give it some grow big on day 14 and probably get the cfls as close as possible once she is about 2 inches tall..
