First time grower seeking diagnosis!

[GreeninNY]

Problem: besides I don’t know what I’m doing, the plants seem stunted for a month old

Medium/grow method: seed starting mix and worm casting potting soil we had in our greenhouse. Outdoors

Feed: and supplements used: seed starter in a small container, changed to a 3 gallon nonwoven container two weeks ago and have noticed growth (5 petals) on leaves ever since. No additional supplements.

water source: tap water. Averaged 1.5 cups per plant, per week.

Strain/age: gorilla glue, Candy Kush, Hindu Kush from growers choice

light used: Sun. Greenhouse is on north facing land

Climate: survived some massive heat-90+ with high humidity.

Additional info: no idea what I’m doing, new to marijuana as well. Bought seeds to help sick family members. Started in containers much to small and recently changed to 3 gallon. The growth doesn’t match any reference photos I can find so I’m assuming something is wrong. Very glad I found this forum!

They are not getting enough light. Either add lighting or move them to the southside of the house.

would moving them now cause substantial change in their growth? Or is it a lesson for the next grow?

@greeninNY Welcome to AFN They do look like they could use some more direct sunlight. You should shoot for at least 42 DLI. Does the greenhouse get full sun all day?



You will want to fertilize now. what do you have available?

My first outdoor autos were a complete disaster and never even made it past thumb size. You're in good company. :smoking:

pop22 wrote up a good article for soil https://www.autoflower.org/threads/the-basics-very-basic-of-organic-growing-for-begginers.46735/

Tap water usually has chlorine added so let it sit out for 24 hrs before giving to your plants. Cheers!

Bought some 2-8-4 fertilize and moved things to a sunnier spot on our property. Thank you! will post an update next week.

Does the worm castings and kelp meal have to be added before a 2-8-4 fertilize?
apologies if thats a dumb question!
