Indoor First Grow Ever wish me luck

[SoulMan_PeeWee]

What's up my fellow growers, I'm baaaaaaack. Today marks day 14 for my two lovely ladies and everything has been going great with no incident. Currently, I have the Autocob sitting 29" above the canopy and I'm feeding/watering approximately every two days. Being that this is my first grow - and I want it to be successful - I've been taking a more hands-off/ conservative approach. My logic being, it is better to be preventative and cautious than trying to recover from a mistake, i.e. overfeeding or watering.

My question to you all is, what do y'all believe the appropriate time to begin LST is? Also, should I attempt to SCROG?

Early on I noticed some loss of pigmentation on my NL1, but my research has concluded that it will clear in the upcoming days/weeks.

Last night my second 3500k Autocob came in the mail so I decided to go ahead and throw that into the grow tent along with a 6" Hyper Fan Stealth and 6" carbon filter. I am hoping that the additional Autocob increases my overall yield.

After running the inline exhaust fan for a night I've noticed a 50% drop in the tent's relative humidity, bringing it down to 29-30%. Hopefully, a small humidifier will solve that issue.

I'll be back on the 21st for the official three-week update with pictures!!!!

29-30% is good if the temps are 68-75.

Thanks, I was worried about that. Prior to reading this, I purchased a small humidifier which is currently in my tent running on low. I intend on running it for about a day or so and further assess the situation.

What's up! So today marks day 21 from the time these two broke soil. On day 18 I decided to top both plants and last night (day 20) I began LSTing them. NL [HASHTAG]#2[/HASHTAG] doesn't look as perky as she typically does and I am thinking it's because today was a water/feed day for both plants; hopefully, she looks more enthusiastic tomorrow morning. I also chose to up their Mega Crop serving to 4g leaving all other nutrient servings the same. I'm hoping that they start bushing up here shortly being that they are being supplied with plenty of light (two 3500k AutoCobs in a 2x2.5 tent).

Don't load them up with excess nutes to get them to grow. You may create more problems for yourself. The colour looks right so they will grow when they are ready.

Thanks for the advice. I've made sure to slowly increase the amount of Mega Crop I've been feeding these ladies. I'm carefully monitoring them as well for any nutrient related stress or trauma.

This is day 28 marking the last day of week four, which has pretty much an uneventful week. I made the decision to invest in a better humidifier for my tent as well as a quality - Blue Lab - PH meter. On day 26 I did a very light defoliation to both plants removing 6 fan leaves each. Additionally, I made the decision to back off of Mega Crop 0.5 grams due to my leaves turning a dark forest green. The ladies measure in at about 12 inches tall from soil and I have each Autocob hanging 24 inches above. Lastly, I've continued my daily LST regiment on the ladies.

Until next time, PEACE!
