Live Stoner Chat My first auto grow pretty wild stuff

Welcome to AFN Lunch_box, looks like folks have already got you on the right track. If you can't get the Sensi nutes quickly, a 30-10-10 orchid fertilizer will do for veg. Most big box or garden stores will stock it.

As to the roots it is normal but also a sign that it is time to get them into larger pots. Some folk do a tier approach where they cut off the bottom of the existing pot and set it in a larger pot filled with soil. What ever you decide to do transplant wise just avoid disrupting the root ball as much as possible.
Happy growing

View attachment 394562View attachment 394563View attachment 394564View attachment 394565I know I know everyone must be gettin sick of all my pictures!! Hahaha I just can't help it I feel lie a prou parent! Anyways here's the twins 12 hours after there first feeding. I swear they grow 1/4 inch over night. I added another light and ballast yesterday and I noticed my temps are climbing above 85 to 90 so I think I may need to bring in a little extra cool air. Am I correct? I noticed the leaves are very very slightly cupping upward. So I moved the lights away a few more inches as well. So hopefully cool air and distance from light will correct it. Unless I'm just over analyzing and maybe the leaves are just cupping upwards because the are wakin up and grabbing at the lights??!? I dunno, suggestions please!?!?

Last night was the first feeding for my big girl and today I woke up with her touching the lights . Last night she was an inch away from the light. Absolutely unreal !! I wish I planted in bigger buckets next time in going full 5 litre pails instead of these 3.5 Halloween buckets. I'm contemplating transplanting but I really don't want to. This girl was almost dead a few weeks back. She spent the night lying on the floor with her dirt everywhere for my cat to play in. So she's been through a lot and I dunno about putting her through another transplant. She looks super healthy though. And I've never seen such an incredibly thick stock in such a short plat.! Grow baby grow!!!

Hey Lunch Not sure why but the pictures on todays post are not coming out

I'll try and repost the pictures. Can you guys tell me pros and cons of the use of molasas? I picked up some and wa thinking of adding it to my nutes . At a super super low dose (powderd molasas).. Please experienced growers fill me in! I find a lot of info supporting it and a lot bashing it. What should I do!?

Never heardof powderd molasses but liquid molassisis used basically in organic soil grows to feed the microbes sugar which inturn helps them make food for the roots to use.It also contains calcium and magnesium with a little iron that benefits plant growth.

Yeah it's from a company called Raw and they sell all nutrients in single raw form so you can make your own mixes. The person at the shop said it helps make resinous dense buds. I mean heck yeah! Right?

Listen to what Namvet and Oldster are saying dude. They're both legends on here.

From what I can see you need to be feeding more nitrogen and slightly more water slightly more regularly. Nothing overboard but pick it up just a touch and try and get the new growth going a bit more darker green.

Next grow go to a hydro store and buy some soil and nutrients specifically made for growing weed and it will make all the difference. When I first started growing in soil I bought whatever they had in the gardening store. After I switched to Plagron and or BioBizz soil mixes the difference was night and day.


EDIT: P.s. welcome to the site!

Heck ya I am listening to what they are saying. That's why I'm still here and asking more questions. Yes the soil was just a random airy potting soil. But the nutrients I bought are for growing weed. Why would u just be buying random stuff? That might be what you did, but not me. I talk with my hydro shop attendants I don't just "buy anything" like you pointed out. But thanks for welcoming me in your own way I geuss.
Forthr watering issue you pointed out, I can water them more regular that I already am or else they will drown. I only water when soil is dry. First few inches. Seems to be every other day pretty much. The nutrients I am feeding is 10 5 5. How much more nitrogen should I be giving them?
