Hello everyone I’ve been interested and started researching and learning about growing for a couple years but I finally got my first tent up. Trying to keep things as simple as possible for now until I learn more.
(Sorry I can’t seem to keep these things short)

Using around 75%canna coco and 25% Gaia green worm castings and I plan on adding some perlite when I move them into 1g and 3g. (Not too sure if I want to use the 1g through first half of veg then move to 3g right before flower?) I didn’t really want 10 bottles of nutrients so I went with just canna a and b, and some recharge mycos. I’ll grab some cal-mag in flower if they look like they need it but if the leaves aren’t asking for it I’m not gonna push it

I’m currently about 10 days from sprouting and it’s been a bumpy road to say the least trying to figure everything out. You would think I’m trying to kill these things by all the shit I’ve done wrong so far. Planted some too deep, not enough soil in the pots, already feeding nutes( I thought because coco is inherit you have to feed right away) also fed with recharge in the solution for about a week haha. I have some in solos but only 1 made it. I put most of the seeds in these nursery pots that are probably a little too big and I think it could use better drainage so I plan on adding 3 more holes to the bottom. I thought the bigger pots would save me a transplant. Not sure if I want to put those right into the 3g or put them in the 1g first. (I know I’ll get better air in those but I don’t want to do too many transplants if I don’t need to or shouldn’t) I started growing algae and some white spots but read it’s pretty harmless and due to overwatering or too often watering. I thought you shouldn’t let the coco dry out on the top layer so I tried to keep it wet. I gave it 2 days of no water to dry out and on the 3rd day I scraped off the algae and gave it 30ml each on the 3rd day.

Today the bigger pots took about 100ml to fully saturate the top so I’ll keep rollin with that for now I guess and hopefully it doesn’t dry out too much or grow more algae. Leaves are leathery and getting harder and clawing down. I’m not sure if this is because of nitrogen toxicity from feeding from the start or it was the over watering. Thinking of just feeding with ph’d zero water from the filter or distilled? I think they’re the same idk lol

I have found a lot of useful information on these threads especially from @Aquaman so I decided to make a profile today. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Looking forward to meeting new people and learning a lot more on here
