Hello everyone,
I would be in dire need of advice please. I am trying to grow some autoflowering medical strains in a 4ft X 4ft grow tent but the seeds have not grown since I planted them into supposedly stabilised coir and perlite medium in 3 gallon cloth pots.
They were germinated in rockwool cubes under fluorescent grow tubes and behaved as they were expected to do but have not progressed.
The temperature is 82 with lights on and drops to 75 with lights off and heat is supplied by an oil column heater. Humidity varies a little around 65% and I am using an LED source ~ Viparspectra PAR series 450W at 40 inches height as recommended.
I was advised by the business I purchased the tent from to use the coconut product and not feed the seedlings until they had started to rapidly grow at about 3 weeks. I have not watered them since the initial watering and the cloth grow bags are still very damp to the touch. pH is roughly 6, they look like they are starving but if I feed them the grow bags will be wetter still or can I give them just a little nutrient around where the edge of where the rockwool would be?
Seeds I planted 2 weeks later that are photoperiod seeds from a friend are doing a lot better but I planted them into some of my farm compost with perlite and coco fibre in equal portions with some rainforest EM that I make myself.
Would love some help with this. I have half a mind to remove them from the 3 gallon cloth posts and put them in a smaller pot with my compost mix but was told by the store that transplanting will kill them.
I realise they will be a write off but would like to get them right healthwise for the learning experience.
