New Grower Newbie First Time Grower Needs Help!

Hello Everyone,

I finally decided to grow my own stuff after making a trip to Amsterdam. I got myself Royal Critical Auto Seeds.

Before the begining i spent quite alot of time on forums, reading important topics and grow journals.

I have a spare storage room in my house and decided to build my own growbox. Attaching the looks of the box from outside. Right now i have 2 120mm PC fans as intake and 1 very powerful fan for exaust attached to that pipe thing.



Its being like 40 days from germination but it seems something slowing down the growth. Thats a 12L pot, put seed directly after germination, no transplant. right now there is like 90W 6500K CFL bulbs inside, ill put more when plant gets bigger.

I know heat is a bit high. Im building a CO2 generator, hopefully it will ease up the stress. Got Soil and water PH tester, feeding with 6.4-.6.8 water every couple of days. Yet plant seems quite small, anyone have idea why? Some of the leaves has deformations can be seen in pics. And small tentacle thingys came up, is that means flowering stage begun? If so im gonna change to 2700k cfls.

PS: Using nutes 7-2-4 for veg stage, although 1/4 of stated amount.

Your girl looks real healthy and the white tenicles you say are flower pistols and she is in full flower mode.She will put on a little more height as she continues to build buds.My only concern is there are no side branches and it looks like a super dwarf strain. You might get some good bud from her but your yield will be quite small.I would change to 2700k like you say and start feeding her some bloom nutes.

Welcome to AFN Kyro, stop by Introductions and tell everyone about yourself when you have a moment. Looks like Namvet has you covered.

You mention the pH of your water, have you checked the pH of your runoff just to be sure your soil is where it should be?

I agree with namvet25: your lady looks very healthy, but it's time to switch her to flower mode. Change wavelenght to 2700k (maybe keeping just one lamp on four at 6500k, I noticed having varied wavelenghts makes for a better health of the plant) and start with the flower-specific fertilizers.
I would also add a reflective panel (doesn't have to be mylar, a matt white board will do) close to the pot to make sure no light goes wasted.
Good luck!:thumbs:
