A little help for 1st timer.

Justsethpc · Jul 3, 2021

So I have 3 Blue dream plants that were germinated May 1st, I probably screwed up and already transferred them to 5 gallon pots. Well, after 2 months they are only about 5 inches tall, but while digging around the pots, they have some really thick roots. I water them with dechlorinated water once the top 2 inches gets dry, keep them on a 12 on 12off schedule. Plenty of airflow, keep it right around 75°f and about 65% humidity. Any particular reason these damn things are not growing like they should? Also forgot to mention they are autoflowering.

Need pics and a lot more info. How much and how often do you water? How much light and nutes? Type of soil/mix?

I missed the 12-12 part though. That's a big deal there.

My correction I started at 12-12. Now they are 18-6. Let me try to get some pics.

I water them about every 3 days, and between the 3 normally about a gallon. And using some organic soil stuff a buddy gave me.

Chronic overwatering to death. I'd toss them and start over. Fill the pots all the way and mix at least 20% perlite.

Someone told me that once the 1st 2 or 3 inches is dry to water them. So I guess that's wrong.

I can get some pictures tomorrow but it's a pvc frame wrapped in black plastic, with the reflective silver wrap on the inside. 2 led grow lights my buddy used in the past, and then a small fan for circulation and then a ducting fan for ventilation.

You could grow them another month and get a joint or 2.

Could I aerate the soil and help dry it out some? I realize now, I packed the soil too tight for it to drain properly out the bottom.

but we can get something to the finish if ya start some more

Keeping an eye on the thermometer, it stays right around 70 to 75.
