How do you find the good medium? I know online but I can't do that right now. And my state isn't a legal growing state so the stores (Walmart, lowes, and Home Depot) don't sell fox farm. I've been researching good soil and I've found that ecoscraps will work, Miracle gro can work (if used very carefully), and black gold coco blend soil will work.Looks good. But that soil looks way too woody to be a great long term cannabis meduim. Might want to look into some grow diarys and research a better soil type.
Best of luck. Peace
Local pet stores sell blocks of coco husk that is used for reptile bedding. I have used it and it works in a pinch but you need to use lots of calmag because it isnt buffered. Amazon sells nutes, lots of garden stores have discreet shipping, just google discreet shipping hydro.How do you find the good medium? I know online but I can't do that right now.

I know you guys are more active growingers but with moving it up that much , my only worry is that the seedling doesn't get enough light. I mean it's CFL lights and they don't work well far away. I haven't felt any heat close to the plant. Would maybe 3 inches away work?like mentioned 2-5 inches from top of plant 2 inches work well in seedling stage - no heat burn !!!!!
With soilless medium I worry about the constant need to give it nutes and water it. Don't yell at me like some people do, but I'm a minor growing in my closet. I don't have much money to keep spending on this, that is why I chose soil. I have some nutes but it's only 2-2-2. I honestly don't where to get some that is stronger at stores.Local pet stores sell blocks of coco husk that is used for reptile bedding.

The pet store coco comes pre loaded with beneficial mite eggs, recyclers and predators, dont freak out if you see them scurrying along the pot.
3 inches will work - don't be afraid to use 2 inches ; it will not hurt the plant at all + get better/stronger light -(uses back of hand test for/ to determine light distanceI know you guys are more active growingers but with moving it up that much , my only worry is that the seedling doesn't get enough light.

I used that method on my last plant. I was using 2 40w cfls and 2 23w cfls. Since the 40s get a lot hotter I put them a little farther away. I used the back of the hand method. My hand didn't get hot, but my plant still had signs of heat burn.3 inches will work - don't be afraid to use 2 inches ; it will not hurt the plant at all + get better/stronger light -(uses back of hand test for/ to determine light distance
Its time to transplant into a bugger lot.. And it needs holes at the bottom.. I can't see it very well.. You should do 3 gallonHere is an updated pic of the plant. The roots are growing very fast now and I'm wondering if I should transplant it yet. View attachment 597607View attachment 597608 View attachment 597609
I have holes in it but should I really transplant it straight to 3 gallons? I have a 1 gallon but no holes in it cuz it's a clay potIts time to transplant into a bugger lot.. And it needs holes at the bottom.. I can't see it very well.. You should do 3 gallon
Yea that won't really hurt it.. You don't wanna keep transplanting numerous times or else you could end up messing up root chemistry and transplant shock..I have holes in it but should I really transplant it straight to 3 gallons? I have a 1 gallon but no holes in it cuz it's a clay pot
I don't want my plant to be too big, maybe 2 feet at most. I've heard a gallon should be good for that but any bigger will need a bigger potYea that won't really hurt it.. You don't wanna keep transplanting numerous times or else you could end up messing up root chemistry and transplant shock..
IMO opinion just about all plants do great in 3 gallon pots
The size or height depends on how tall or short you want itI don't want my plant to be too big, maybe 2 feet at most. I've heard a gallon should be good for that but any bigger will need a bigger pot
I don't want it root bound. Do you think it'll be ok until Sunday?The size or height depends on how tall or short you want it
If you leave in a small ass pot its whole life you will create root bound or whatever else there is
Good luck
