Bag seed

[Mellowvibes]

After months of not smoking I decided to. Got a few bag seeds. Out of 8, 1 popped. I bought solo cups a little too late so i set it in half of a bottle.
Did not put things in place before doing this as I haven't had a beam pop in a long time.
So Its an outdoor seedling till I can get lights and set up an area.
Still trying to figure out my plan.
I prefer put it under M
MH and HPS but i havent decided the size most i can grow is eight plants so I'm thinking the 600w but i rather go bigger.
My plan is to clone this plant and keep it alive until I get something better.
Its weak genetics but has a nice mellow high. Very enjoyable.
It will interesting to see the outcome of this plant.

Day 6

Slight burn in the leaves. Hoping that clears up.

You’ll be able to see roots and moisture content if thats clear plastic but sleeve it so the roots don’t get light. For germination, try 4 parts soil to one part water in a container with a tight cover and some warmth, couple degree above room temp, 2-3 days usually.

 

[Mellowvibes]

Really appreciate the advice. Thanks
I will definitely sleeve it. What happens when light hits the roots tho?

 

[Madbud]

Good question

When u grow bag seed u have to cull the males but you are only growing 1 plant there is a 50 50 chance of u getting a female, if you really want to grow shell out for some feminized seeds that way you will have female plants or at very worst a hermi.

Algae can grow, damaging the roots. No light, no algae.

12 days. One leaf looks a little droopy. But growing well in my opinion.
Bright sunlight for twelve hours and indoors under a led lightbulb when the sun goes down.
Just until my 1000w Mh and Hps comes in.
I plan to purchase Fems this coming week or weekend.
Any suggestions what site I can get good fems in the US that takes Visa.
Stealth shopping of course.

Picture update

 

[Mellowvibes]

Went up a size with the pot . More like bag. Eventually fabric pots

 

[Mellowvibes]

Update. Did LST. Bent and then used a clothes clip to hold it down. One more week the I will be transferring to either a 1 gallon or 3 gallon fabric pot. Order the one gallon but not sure if it will reach on time.
3 gallons in hand.

Outdoors for now. Unfortunately she gets 13 hrs of sun. I have my 1000w ipower hid but will be a month before my room is setup.

She looks Sativa. I sprouted a couple more. All look relatively the same. 3 are a little bit shorter.

Il post some pics later

I love the 3gal fabric thats what my lovely lil ladies are in till harvest. Just the right size for me.

 

[Mellowvibes]

I also ordered 5 gallon bags but I'm not sure if I will use them yet. I will see in time. If the one gallons dont come in they will be going straight to the 3 gallon.

If you dont mind me asking. Do you continuously up pot until the 3 gallon. If yes what sizes you normally go through?

I started in solo cups, then 1gal plastic then 3gal fabric. Looking back i wished i had just skipped the 1gal.
When my autos come im planting straight into 3gal.

 

[Mellowvibes]

I've read its better to progress in size slowly. To allow for the roots to reach the water a little easier and to avoid soaking the medium with fertilizers.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

I may have to go straight to the 3 gallon as well.

I actually got some 3 gallon plastic grow bags just in case I run out. I may have to use three of them. Hopefully if there are any males they wont be in the fabric pots.

Only give as much water as they need, only water few inches around as seedling and gradually expand out as it grows into the pot.

As for nutes.
i grow with pretty hot soil already so i didnt do anything but water for the first 3-4 weeks, then just gave a couple heavy feeds of veg food for last couple weeks then switched to bloom feed and theyre doing wonderfully. Some of the colas are starting to flop from weight lol

 

[Mikelej14]

For autos you should just start in the final medium, they dont have the veg time to handle extra stresses from transplanting, especially multiple times. Tho im sure it will still grow and produce if you do, it just seems like unnecessary risk for a plant that grows in under 3 months

 

[Mellowvibes]

Because of the 12-13 hours sun the plants dint get to big.
Hence my plan to do the room.
It's a 10X10 room but just one light for now. Once ceiling goes in and I setup the room properly. If it flowers outside il leave it there.
I got coco and perlite to transplant when ready.

I’m close to the same situation

 

[Mellowvibes]

My beautiful German Shepherd decided to take the fabric pot to see the yard.
But left the plant and all the coco and perlite on the floor.

This was between 12am and 5am.

I repotted and hoping it doesnt affect the plant

 

[Mellowvibes]

Making progress. Still small but cant ask for much with just 12 hrs sunlight

Also have some younglings coming up

They all smell really nice. We will see as they progress
