Hello guys, I am currently growing 3 Killer cheese plants which have vegged for 5weeks and is on its first week of flower (this is my first grow) I have been feeding them with plant magic plus 5-3-3 and I don't know whether I need to switch feed yet or if it's okay to carry on feeding them with grow?

When learning a new strain if I am feeding my plants during veg I typically continue veg nutes until the 2nd week of flower then I switch to bloom nutes unless there are signs the plant are giving me, which of course then I react accordingly. But you didn't tell us anything about how you are growing so this is really bland generic help.

That's to be expected when growing from seed.
When you grow cuttings, (aka clones) you can expect uniformity.
They look pretty good from here. :)

Carry on,

I have tried to clone but they didn't survive as I planted directly to soil but first left in water for 10mins. So I decided to plant 10 more, But the thing with seeds you never know the sex and I started with 10 now to have 3 fems.

Next time, just leave the cut in water. Tap water is fine, just change it everyday .
It can take weeks to sprout roots.
Patience and low light is advised.
Might want to grow out one of the males next time and pollinate a lower branch.
Seeds are expensive, why not make your own?

Aloha,

Ahh right so with cutting I leave them in water until signs of rooting? I have bunch of seeds every now and then from Oz bag you see, so I decided to grow since I always wanted to other than putting them seeds to waste.

So I've research loads to get them going but I am coming to a stage where I don't know much about and many say it's a delicate stage and can get ugly if not doing the right things. I feed everyday 2litres of carbonated water for the 3 using the nutes and not measured I just guess the amount of nutes.. My lighting schedule isn't perfect as I wake up later sometimes and switch the light 1-3hours later

Gotta get yourself a timer for the lights. Minimize the chances of human error.

I don't feed nutes when in soil I spend a little extra on the soil instead. I based my soil off of Super Soil you can google lots of recipes. Except for Cal Mag Plus I add 5ml per gallon of reverse osmosis water, because 0 ppm water is bad. But if the plants start taking too long to green up new growth I will double it to 10ml of cal mag plus per gallon. Some strains are hungry so those ones I do add bloom nutes but that's near mid flower.

Guessing nutes and hoping pH Is right might begin to fail you during flower. You should do some research on how others here are using your brand nutes. You should consider getting some pH test strips at very least so you can determine how much to buffer your solution. It is easy after you do it once it is usually always the same amounts of everything, i.e. 2 drops pH down and 5ml Cal Mag Plus gets me pH balanced, yours may be different.

I don't test my ph since I buy a pack of 18litre carbonated water a week for very cheep under £2. Carbonated water has the perfect ph according to my research...

My soil contains good nutrients it is Miracle grow soil.

Waw just checked it out, I never thought about super soil I really don't want to mess about with the water feed and that is a great alternative for next time.

They are doing very good, I'm so excited because many pistils are showing up and the plants themselves keeps on growing.
