Grow Mediums DP Auto Blueberry 1st

[Mr.Wrinkle]

Hey!

Its my first time indoor growing, so I decided to start a new thread to track my progress as well as ask for advice and so on.

My setup:
60x60x150 (cm) box
200w CFL red
TT125 fan with about 280m^3 and carbon filter with same flow rate

Pots:
2x Fabric 12l pots filled with Coco Professional Plus

Seeds:
2x dutch passion auto blueberry

Nutrients:
CalMag from Sensi
some local A, B and M nutrients

I've got my CFL positioned 10 cm above the sprout with computer fan pushing hot air away. So temp is around 24 celcius and RH 40-50%

First seed sprouted a week ago and I watered on 2nd day with pH water (although I used water with around 6.5 pH). Three days ago I noticed that sprout was progressing very slowly ( hopefully due to some root action going on under). Actually I was a bit freaked out by this, since the pot stayed wet for a long time and just today it started to dry out on the top.

So after a bit of research I decided to do first feeding with around 1/8 of recommended nutrients and pH around 5.8, since I read that it's recommended to flush Coco with nutrients even before planting germinated seeds.

Current situation is that I have one seed germinating and will plant it to pot with 1/8 nutrients, and the other one is growing and hopefully will get back on track and start vegging like crazy.

Also I started to notice a bit of yellow action going from the base of leaves ( maybe from the 6.5 pHed water, or pot staying wet for too long? ). Hopefully the second seed will have better progress!

That's about it for the first post, will post some pictures soon. Any advice and optimalizations appriciated! I am really curious about the size of sprout

Hi and welcome to AFN @Mr.Wrinkle and good luck with your first grow!

Hope all goes well. I ph my coco in the neighborhood of 5.8 - 6.1.

 

[Mr.Wrinkle]

Thanks! Well I only got coloring pH test, so am doing my best guessing the colors

And what do you think about the plant after 7 days? Is it average or slow?

Update:

second seed turned out to be bad (black tap root) but I've put in the soil anyway. Maybe something will come out So tomorrow I'll go pick up a new one. Any tips for sativa autos?

The plant is doing good, a little growth happening and am still wondering that maybe it's a bit stunned but I am slowly regaining hope!

Have a question for you, are there any good grow journals on this forum? Could you point me to them? Thanks

So, reporting with the biggest one 16 days, others are 4-6 days not quite sure. I think she's starting to kick in as she experienced a bit of heat stress (AFNs guess and it looks like they were right! thank you again) but the curl seems to stop.

One of the little ones is also DP blueberry and others are unknowns from buddha auto mix and they're looking strong! Looking forward in finding out which one is what

hey!

this one is looking good right? shes 4 weeks old, ajd i really hope she ll start to get some height to her also some leaves have difference in shades of green any idea what is causing it? others are 2,5 weeks old and already pushing out side branches

been feeding half strength nutrients and they are getting thirstyy

Hey wrinkle. It looks like the beginning of a magnesium def. Check your ph as in coco ph is very important.
