My Cheap Ass Grow.

[jipp]

so i need diffrent dirt. ok, well cant do nothing for a week.

chris.

 

[jipp]

so this soil is pretty much useless. heh. not even good for seedlings.

 

[tifosi]

I like soil like what you have read the plant and add nutes as needed.Maxsea is a basic granular fertalizer a table spoon mixed with four gallons of water works good for young plants. scoop mix and pour it's about as easy as it gets.they have a veg & a bloom formula available on EBay.I use this once a week and also add Cal mag once a week for the trace elements. fertilizer makes the plant grow and stay that nice green color.It is sea weed based with a few non organic additives.Feeding and watering your correctly is the key to success.what ever you choose to feed your plants take it slow usually 1/4 dose to begin with,it's easier to add moor the next feeding if needed that it is to subtract after you have added to much.all of your plants have time to recover and grow properly.

that's all fine and dandy but cant order that yet. but it seems like i have a lot of work ahead of me. heh. hopefully things go good ill have the tent setup this weekend..

then ill go from there and just try to keep them alive the best i can until then.

That is what i used to veg these with and a bit of cal mag,most are 3 ft. tall @ 7 weeks.I popped these a few weeks to early and still have 3 plants flowering that could take a week or more.Look at the bright side your improving all your seeds are growing now and your getting the watering down.the roots you had the picture of looked white to me and brown roots are when they are past the point of no return.

 

[jipp]

i am learning. ill transplant the other 3 to make sure they get food. one is starting to turn lighter green so its crying for food.

so yeah, ill just by my self time transplanting them two 1gh pots for now till i get food. order food next week.

ill get pictures after i transplant. also i wanted to water the new sprouts so bad.. but held of and the look fine.. they really need so little water because the cups feel so light.. im thinking today ill water them good and let them go.

Just curious, what soil are you using?

I've got some FF ocean forest that is very hot. Burned the hell out of my 2 clones and a seedling.

 

[jipp]

morning.
apparently not so good with out food. explains why everyone is letting there ride for weeks and why my plant was healthy then got sick.. no food. and i know the exact point that it cried for food.. if i would of had food i bet it would be healthy and shit cause it started off good.
sunshine.

she wanted food by day 10. pictures of day 9 and 10 and half or so.
chris.

 

[jipp]

transplanted.. the small one could of held off a few more days maybe.. but man was it dry much dryer than it felt.

anyhow, these plants have been stressed and fucked with.. i hope to do better on the new seedlings popping up.

seedlings will get water to night.. they are feeling bone dry now.

oh yeah 6 was changing color sign of food id assume.. anyhow i sprayed her was some cal mag. rest just a mist of water. and the roots looked much better,
chris.

 

[justiceman]

That one in the middle is a bit hungry like you said but she can still definitely come back. Honestly the rest look perfectly fine to me. Especially #6:D Do you have any food at all to give her?

 

[jipp]

no, not yet. wont be able to do anything till next week.
so i transplanted hopeful;yt the new soil will give me a week and half of keep them alive.

i did not over water the new sprouts.. i wanted to water last night cause the cups feel light.. but i figure i know what over water looks like so id find out what under water would do.. bu they are fine.. i will water to night and forget them.

3 new babys pop up. 1 i think will not make it or take a few days extra im pretty sure the seed got push down deeper in that one when i watered..

morning pictures.. ill water the seedlings today.
they begging for water by now im sure.. heh.

so 4 days ,maybe with no water at this size... so yeah i was over watering big time.

chris.

 

[justiceman]

Yup they are looking very happy now and will start exploding soon. You should be ok not giving them food for that time. The hungry one will get hungrier but the others look like they have enough nutrition to tide them over. Everything looks good man. Great job!

 

[MIMedGrower]

Plants look so much better. When you can get a low dose of fertilizer in that hungry one she will start growing fast!

We all seem to want to overwater our beloved plants brother. I burned the heck out of my first ones. Then learned like you are and they all recovered.

Nice!

I water all my ladies to full soil saturation.

The ladies in the main tent see so much heat and only%1rh. That they need extra water. Once I feed all the ladies I fill my drip pan with .5gallon or so of water. That way they have a battery of extra cooling capacity.

Usually before the day is over it has been absorbed.


I may get shit for doing this but lemme just say.

Working in high heat low rh% has been a challenge. It has required me to develop new growing parameters than what most people read is ideal.

This has helped me establish my own version of ideal.

In 2-3 days all plants will be bone dry and I will repeat the process. They don't just sit in puddles of water everyday.

 

[jipp]

oh i believe they do not sit in water. heh.. water goes quick in our environment.. reason iv been checking water every day. the day i do not im screwed.

i watered the seedlings today, maybe 10am. anyhow all of them are reaching for the sky.

I didn't mean your plants sit in water everyday. You've been doing good lately. Just giving ideas. you may need some of these ideas later on in your adult plants lifes. Since you live in the desert

yeah i understood. i was not gonna flood them yet.. its not really hot yet.. its been cruising 79-80F with just the A/C on.. its been coool last few days. and no air circulation yet.,

 

[jipp]

so here is a thought i just had. how can you feed the plant when it wants food if you can not water until dry. ( i guess, you have to learn to feed during water period, yeah )

Yup they feed mostly when wet.
Transpiration dictates how much water is taken up.

And all that water taken up contains nutrients.

Once the soil dries that flow of water from the roots to the leaves stops.


So yes feed during water.

Alternatively you could feed via foliar application if you need to.

If the roots are coming out of the pots put some small gluts under them just enough to still let them drink up the RO it will save against root rot just my opinion.
