First grow ever think i need a little help.

[layzaydayday]

First off I've got 6 fem seeds from seedsman im using fox farm ocean forest there about 3 weeks old going on 4 weeks. Always have had ph water from 6.3 to 6.8 have 2 weak feeds cut the nutes in half per gal of water. They are in a 4x4 tent with 2 600w full spec lights my main concern is the red stems and just wondering anoutnthw over all look.

 

[THCMonster]

They actually look really good! Just be careful in fox farm soils not to over water, but from the pics i would say your doing good so far! Just keep it up.

Great work Layza. Good luck on your grow. They look great.

 

[Madbud]

Same, go real light on watering.

 

[layzaydayday]

Hey thanks everyone makes me feel a bit better ill keep everyone posted and make sure i keep up with pictures. I just felt overwhelmed so mucj to learn.

 

[Madbud]

To elaborate, forget about the “finger up to the knuckle” test. All the water settles on the bottom where the roots are. Did you put any drainage in the bottom, perlite, rocks, a hole?

 

[layzaydayday]

I drilled a lot of holes and i have rocks at the bottom they drain really well i just watered before i took the pictures yesterday.

I was also wondering if i could cut the single first true leaf off the ones after the cotyledons they are so low to the dirt

Sure, pinch or cut.

They look good and healthy! Don't overdo the nutes as that mix looks pretty loaded from the factory. Make sure you've got adequate drainage and don't go overboard with watering. You could mix some extra perlite into the top layer if you're worried about water retention. Keep the environment stable and give the plant enough energy and you'll be right - well done.

At 3-4 weeks you're going to finish off the "hot" in your FFOF, and can move to full strength nutes.

I think the old adage that purple stems is a sign of low N, is kind of an old wives tale. Yes it can mean you're short of N, but some strains just have purple stems and will never go green (even if you smoke em with a ton of N). Hopefully someone who knows you strain can help.

Curious about those pots. I have been trying to find them. Link? Store? Where I can find those aerated pots? Do you flower in those pots as well? Thanks.

Those Pots are overrated, spend 4 times the money for something easily avoided...started in the earth quit getting fucking lazy. All the $$$ in the world won't make it grow, that's talent and it takes work. Respect it and listen all day

 

[layzaydayday]

I just bought 7 smart pots 5 gal and some purple cow indicanja would like transplant soon.

 

[Mr.Budly]

Too young, growth is beneath before it pushes up .... Be patient then... Shit will take time to be beneficial, be patient... It's a process

Who you talking too?

 

[Mr.Budly]

Who you talking too?

Anybody still listening, that pot ain't gonna make it grow... Spend $60 a pair to see. That pot don't guarentee yield. It might help if you have heat issues or can't water right... Just saying that pot ain't gonna solve your problems. Listen to the plant, when you can read it it'll produce! Trial and error
