Hey guys , well basicly i want to start growing my own smoke. Need a new hoby and im haveing alot of fun so far with everything . reading about stuff and learning every day - iv been reading your posts for a couple of days now and im getting some awesome information on here u guys are the best !

Im a first time grower and mind if i ask something here . my plants are about a week old . 1 is 9 days and still only 2 leaves on em, im just wondering , how long does it normaly take for em to grow more " weed leaves " ? Im using soil and they are preatty much in a guerilla style growroom if u can call it that . i just took stuff i had lying around the house and decided to plant something . total mcgywer style aswell and the temp is from 23*C to 30*C , humidity never goes above 30% . There are 3 t5 lights i had lying around from an aquarium lol 2 ontop 1 long one i had made for plants but too long to fit the room at the side , and i have a big ass fan in there circulating the air , no air intake or exaust since i couldnt aford it yet . but the place they are in is a bit drafty abowe .. At first week or so i let em under 24h light and they went from zero to round 11 / 13 CM in a day or 2 preatty much . and now almoast no change for days .Im afraid they get cold so now they are not developing anymore ? Or are they growing roots at this stage ? im not useing any nutrients maybe once they growup , since im new i dont want to burn em i want to see what happens first and then keep adding and getting proper equipment ... yeah basicly is it normal for them to take longer to develop more leaves at start ?
 
Welcome @hitray , you picked a great hobby!
about your plant, during the first 4 to 6 weeks after germination they're in the 'seedling stage' this is where they focus on creating a nice little root system started to support the growth of a big plant. If yours are still in this period just don't kill them with kindness by overfeeding or overwatering, which is very easy in cheap or dug up soil.

Good luck getting your equipment, the struggle is real!
nice to meet you mate..
Peace

Welcome.. Your little ladies should be fine... try putting a dome over them in the form of clear plastic cup on up to cutting the bottom off of a 2 liter bottle... this will help.. take it off twice a day for 20 minutes....

Welcome my friend,

just enjoy your growing and learn as you grow. It is the best way. Each time you grow you get better. You learn more from your mistakes than any tutorial.
Keep,it simple and fun.........eP.

Hello again , now since i wouldnt want to start a grow log because im at week 4 now ( or something like that :) )

At the beggining i had alot of stretch and my plants looked like shit , so i added more light in all spectrums
Some CFL some T5 all around the plants . Now they are beautyfull :eyebrows:
Sooo , i started LSTing my girls and im wondering , the leaves that are not getting light / touching the soil is it ok if i just cut em off ?
Also the BIG fan leaves ... i know they are good for the plant but to me it looks like they are stealing all the light and are blocking the sun for the little leaves under it ...
yeah basicly , is it ok to be cutting leaves ? or would it hurt my plants .
they are all preatty small but preatty bushy and im growing Horizontaly in a " coffin " hahaha

looking forward to your replys , cheers :cheers:
 
Hey, welcome. It would be great to see a pic. Got any? I don't like leaves touching the soil, so I pinch off any that are. Usually just one or two at the base. I'm not sure with yours, since you say it's horizontal. With the large leaves, just tuck them behind bud sites and other leaves to expose the bud site. Glad you're having fun! Great hobby.
 
yeah bro , im on it . i found another thread that told me , yolo just go for it and see what happens . so i dit it :)
dont mind me ... trial and error is the game i play . so yeah . fuck it ;)
