This will be my first try at growing cannabis, I've purchased most of everything I need. I have a setup in my closet, but no tent so it will be hard to control fresh air and ventilation. I've germinated all six successfully directly into the soil and one of the afghan mass has sprouted(first seed to pop). Started on 13/5.

Only questions so far are, the soil ontop is pretty dry but still moist under the surface. I stupidly didn't soak the whole pot only the middle where I placed my seeds, should I add water or wait until they all sprout and need water?
And has anyone heard of and or tried the product Rhyzo?

Photos to come shortly, cheers.

So being busy with work and also being an idiot, the 2 bombs and 1 Afghan seeds dried out. The 3 others have all sprouted so about time for some photos.

Great good luck on this grow my friend. Hope you do well.

I would have been too retarded to do coco my first time outta the gate. but if you are a good study, there's no reason you can't kick a bit of arse here.

hey Derty, sorry to hear about your misfortune, but on the bright side, 3 will be easier to care for than 6. especially for your first grow. if you havnt already, check out some grow logs in the coco sub-forum in the hydro section. some real badass coco growers you can get some tips from. I just do soil so I'm no help with the coco but ilike to watch LOL

So its been about a week(give or take a day) and they're doing well I think. I moved them closer to the light and they became really green and grew some and just seemed to come to life abit, so realized I had them too far away.

I uploaded a picture of the root stim I've been using, wondering if anyone has used it or heard of it.

You may end up with about the same weight after harvest with 3 plants with a lot of room and light than with 6 plants crowded and not getting enough light. At least that may be the bright side. It's proving true for me growing in a 4x4 foot tent.
Why does the root stim bottle have two caps? Do you mix two parts?

There is a small chamber near the top of the bottle that is used for measuring. Squeeze the bottle until the upper chamber fills with the desired amount, then pour from the upper chamber. One cap to pour from, the other is a vent.

How are they looking one week sprout? the afghan mass looks like it drooping abit(too much water?) I've been watering every second day, but they've been dry.

I think ive fucked them, they're curling upwards, look dry, have brown spots and aren't growing

 

[armanidog]

Usually if the edges of the leaves are curling up it is due to heat stress. What are the temps in the grow room and how close is the light to your plants?
Where are the brown spots? At the end of the leaves or scattered on the whole leaf?
A photo would help.
