Hi, I recently decided to grow some weed
I don't have a lot of space, so I had to put the set-up on my balcony. The climate here is temperate, but I guess 6 month out of the year no extra temperature control is required.
Equipment I have: 60x60x170 tent, filter + fan, small rotating fan to move air around the tent. Light is Mars Hydro Epistar 600, actual power draw ~230w.
Growing medium is soil - Plagron Batmix. Fabric pot, ~20l, out of which I am using probably 18l.
Humidity control - cheap ultrasound humidifier, maintaining around 60% RH.
I started just one seed of Auto Big Demon in a tablet and in 24h it has already sprouted. It was on 2nd of May. I immediately transfered it to big pot, just by putting the tablet with the seed into the soil.
I tried to maintain humidity just by spraying in the tent for first 10 days or so, but then got humidifier.
I used just veg switch on my LED for first 3 weeks, and yesterday I switched it to both veg and bloom.
Light schedule was 18/6 with light off at night, but then I realized that it's chilly at night and changed it to 20/4 with lights off midday, which I plan to maintain till the end.
Plant to light was ~80-90 when I started and week 1 I made it at ~60cm.
I watered it every 2-3 days with 1.5l of tap water, PH is fine, tested it every time.
Today I did a first time with a fertilizers, adding just 1ml of organic veg fertilizer and 1ml of organic bloom fertilizer per liter of water. Watered with 3 liters today after letting it dry up a little bit more than previously - 4 days. I had a concern of the fact that the pot may be too large for the plant and did not want to overwater it. So far it seems happy no matter how I water it.
What concerns me is the size of the plant is good for its 22nd day, and second - it seems to be very bushy and not growing upwards a lot.
What's good - I saw some pistils few days ago, so at least it's a girl.
Another thing I'm not sure about - the color. It seemed to be very dark, but when I first looked at it with light off to take a picture, I realized it was just because of the LED. Anyways, does the color look healthy?
Another thing - first leaves - pair of ones and pair of threes seem to be very low, like extremely relaxed. Is it ok?
I'll attach some pictures taken today.
Does it look OK for its age?
Is bushiness a problem?
