Hey all, first serious attempt at a grow. Read about cannabis cultivation for a couple years, but ready to try putting it into practice.
Wrote my labeling of the strains on my paper towel when germinating the seeds, but the water made it fade, so not sure which is which but there should be a Gorilla Zkittlez from Barney Farms, and I think a Northern Lights & Amnesia Fast from Seedsman & a Red Diesel from Dinafem. One of them didn't germinate properly, which I think was either the Diesel or Amnesia, but I will just have to take a guess later.
They were under a 75W CFL for the first week or two of life, but are under a 400W MH at the moment in a 4'x4'x6' Grow Tent. This is probably week 4 overall of life post-germination. I have a 400W HPS to switch to once I start flower. Temperatures are quite stable, at about 24C (75.2F) outside the tent, and about 28C (82.4F) in the tent under the lights, the top of the plants don't feel uncomfortable to the hand though
Current soil is a generic general purpose potting mix for vegetables/flowers/fruit. One of the plants seems to have started to have some brown spots, which I understand may be a nutrient defficiency, so I'm planning on moving them to some larger smart pots tomorrow. I've made a soil mix out of the generic soil, coco coir & mulch, with a little bit of cow & sheep manure with some ground up egg shells mixed through.
I've mostly been feeding them plain tap water, but occassionally I feed them water with a kelp extract (maybe every 3 or 4 days), and I watered them once with a little neem oil to prevent pests, and plan to do so every few weeks or if I see any pests showing up. I have a tiny tiny bit of Bio Vega nutrients that I plan to start giving to the plants once they're established in their larger pots & are a little larger, as well as an almost full bottle of Bio Flores I plan to give once my plants are flowering. I intend to start weak, and see how the plants react before giving bigger amounts.
Any advice or feedback would be greatly appreciated, I'm keen to start contributing to the community & to start my growing experience
