New Grower 250 HPS | autos NL + skunk#1 + withe widow sensi seeds

[Timoteo]

Hi everyone, first grow ever.

tent: 0,8mx0,8mx1,8m
light: 250 HPS dual + sunlight
nutrients: Hy-pro terra (2-5-5)
1 auto Northern Lights
1 auto Skunk#1
1 auto White widow
all sensi seeds
soil: canna professional
pots: 7L

The plants are 12 days now and everything seems fine. I have been wondering about when should i start feeding once the soil is already very rich in N, however i still havent got a concrete answer for someone experienced with this soil.

I pretend to keep this updated as much as possible. All help is welcome.

Off to a good start Timoteo ! You should feed when the 3rd-4th set of leaves are there, start slow too 1/4 to 1/2 strength. Growing karma your way will be following along.

All the best with the grow bro. I'm not too familiar with that soil, but I have a similar set-up. So far u look like in great shape.

Personaly, I waited 2 weeks before my first (veg) feed, and even then I only used tiny amounts, I mean tiny (1/4 ish).

The advice I was given was, give em plenty of light, not too much nutes and take your time. Hope this helps. I'm subbed, good luck.

Peace.

Thank you guys! they are now 14 days and already have their 4th true leaves set coming up, probably wait one more week to add nuts if the girls dont ask for it before!

Are the nutes hy pro terra 2-5-5 the only ones youve got?
Its NPK is more for flowering than veg,ideally you want something with higher N than P & K.
Ive never used canna professional soil,but from the website it contains worm castings and
sphagnum peat moss.Worm castings are a great starter for plants,but i think peat moss can turn acidic
later on in the grow.So keep an eye out for it.
Youve made a good start,try to keep it up.
Good luck.

Thank you Red. Yes, this are the only nutrients i have, they come along with the tent and light as offer. Having in mind that the soil is very rich, specially N, i believe that i will do fine only with hy-pro. (it is supposed to be a veg-flower nut, everything in 1 bottle, it only change amount feeded). I hope i only need to feed in 1 week or 2, so with luck it will be already pre-flowering. (the photos will have to be repoted to avoid adding this nutes in veg).

For next grow i am aiming to biobizz nutrients&soil, but it all depends of how hy-pro goes.. if results are satisfactory i will only buy other when bottle is empty meanwhile girls are praying to the sun, and i believe that it means they are happy!!

thank you for your feedback!

Did you mix any dolomite of lime with your soil,1-2 tbspn per US gallon.
It helps neutralise the acidity of the peat moss,its best mixed 2 or 3 weeks
before planting coz its slow working.
Most growers supplement soil that has peat moss in it with dolomite of lime
to stop the build up of acidity and stabilise ph.
Mix some into your planted pots being careful of roots.It will filter down.
Good luck

Hey everyone!!

Stop by to a quick update. Habemos Pistils!!

Day 21 and skunk#1 has some small pistils already. Made some bondage in her and on NL, WW is smaller so i didnt get kinky with her. They got today their first feed, 1/4 of recommended dose. without the LST they would have around 30cm (~10 inches i think)

Peace!
