New Grower My first grow and the products i'm using!

[mrrager420]

I've seen that before Muddy! That is why i asked. But I ended up not getting anything extra for this grow. Want to see how the basics work then i'll experiment more from there. I was actually waiting for someone to give the comment you gave.

Muddy knows his shit...:thumbs:

Not all perlite is the same. MG perlite is treated with nutrients that can cause problems with your grow. If you use it, make sure you wash it well first to flush out the nutrients.

I didnt know that muddy, but then I have not bought perlite in decades.:clap:

perlite is perlite mate

I see you didnt know there was fert laden perlite either...

I dont actually use organic soil just organic nutes

Moved the lights down closer. Read on http://www.autoflowering-cannabis.com/ that the lights should be 1-4 above the ladies.

Kannabia Gnomo Auto. Idk what's wrong with one of her serrated leaves. Any advice? I'm guessing it's nothing serious and will be fine in the end but not for sure.

The gnomo might be a mutant, the blue mistic looks healthy

 

[mrrager420]

If it is a mutant i hope it works FOR and not against the plant. And thanks i was enjoying taking pics of ol' Blue. This is going to be an interesting grow for me. First time and i may have a mutant on my hands.

I was kinda thinking they'd be bigger than this especially sense i fed them a 1/4 of recommended nutes. I usually water them when the top later of soil starts to look "ashy" which is about every 2-3 days. I just give them 17oz of water each. Should i water them more often?

 

[Muddy]

You are watering them too much and eventually that will lead to problems. Weed like to go through wet/dry cycles. Get a feel for your pots when they are almost completely dry and only water when they feel that way. Seedlings don't use much water and at this point I doubt you'll need to water more than every 7 - 10 days. Once the plants get bigger they will probably need water ever 3-4 days.

Really? Wow see that's the difficult part about getting info on growing. Now i see why people say you can read all day but the best way to learn is to just go through your own experience. I can't quite remember exactly where i heard this (i wanna say from a reputable youtuber) but he said to stick your finger tip in the soil and if it's dry then water your ladies. So i was going by that. I'll try the once a week method vs the way i've been doing it. I guess it's better to under water them vs over water them right?! Oh and not that i'll have this problem but on Kannabia's website they say over feeding the Gnomo Auto won't harm it at all. So for anyone (especially new growers) that wants to try this strain and worry about over feeding it, according to their website you should be fine.
