too soon for nutrients,,is that soil or cocoHello everyone, I have made a diy indoor grow box with all the knowledge from watching YouTube. I had got 3 seeds of dinafem sweet drape grapefruit. The germination was proper of all the 3 but two of them died and now I am left with a single plant which is now 22 days. Yesterday I added nutrients in the feed and now I am worried. This is my first time growing and creating a thread so please correct me if I am going wrong. I am posting some pic of the plant .I would really appreciate all the advice, thanks View attachment 763586 View attachment 763588

I am posting a pic of the nutes I used. I added 0.9 ml of each to 1liter of water and ph it around 5.5Doesn't look too soon for nutes in my opinion, at the very least needs 1/4 strength feed. Look at the cotyledons, they are drained, hence the yellow...soon your plant will start consuming the nutes in your fan leaves...which is not good...looks like you're growing in soil. Assuming you've not got a early lockout in that soil of yours...
in soil you souldnt have to feed that plant about once a week and a cup of water goes a long way,dont keep soil wet,keep moist and at the stage your in,that soil will feed that plant for at least another 3 weeks,starting from seed in ocean forest,i water in before i put seed in,after that i put about a tsp of water in solo cup for about a week all around edge of cup,to wet will rot your stem,so moist is the key,in soil every time you see runoff coming from your pots,you also see a lot of life and nutrients,so my best method is just a tad ever now and then,when you get your first 5 finger leaves,transplant in final pot,,imagine this ,you have a pine tree 15 ft tall,how long is the tap root? tap root is half the length of plant,so a plant 4in tall expect a 2in tap root,so why water the feeders under it,water the edges and make it spread,when you water to much you also compact the soil,soil even with perlite,vermiculite still compact if abused,you hear the term flush,in soil flush means last 2 weeks of life ,feed nothing but water,the flush they recomend,is drench the shit out of it to flush out chemical imbalance,,you cant flush soil all you do is make mud that still hold these salts and chemical,,so even using the line up you got you can still do it proper as long as you dont over do it,,dont drench it,cup at a time,believe me as the plant matures it let you know when it needs moreIt's soil
What kind of soil!It's soil
18/6 is better than 24/0I did change the light time after nutes. Before the first feed it was 18/6 now it 24. Please let me know if I am going wrong. I am posting a pic of the last temp and humidity
That's kinda on the warm side also. imoI did change the light time after nutes. Before the first feed it was 18/6 now it 24. Please let me know if I am going wrong. I am posting a pic of the last temp and humidity

18/6 got it thanks18/6 is better than 24/0
Yes will make sure not to go over 26. I have two led bulb white 30w each, 2900lumens per bulb. I have kept the plant about 6inch(approximately) away from the light. Posting a pic for reference. ThanksThat's kinda on the warm side also. imo
I would drop it to 24-26c if possible.
Also what light are you using and how far away is it?
Using one bulb right now.Yes will make sure not to go over 26. I have two led bulb white 30w each, 2900lumens per bulb. I have kept the plant about 6inch(approximately) away from the light. Posting a pic for reference. Thanks
Plain soil with out fertiliser is what I have been told. I have marked this soil gets stiff if its dryWhat kind of soil!
