New Grower First Time Auto Growing Need Help!

Yeah, @Equatorial !

Best thing I learned - get one started, you will learn more by your own experiences. Too many variables with us scattered across the World? Reading here on AFN is good but, nothing like seeing what they do.

AFN is the best for having an emergent problem and getting it solved with the latest growing experiences!

This place rocks for sure. I've been reading till my mind can't process info anymore and i still keep reading. I'm more newb than the newbs around here cos I've never planted a single thing in my life. Zero experience so I feel like i have lots to catch up. But I've slowly realized that I cannot rush things. So gonna reduce speed a little and more one step at a time. At least avoid 20 steps in advance...LOL

As usual, I'm gonna extend a most sincere invitation for u to stick around and help me out when u can....God knows i need all the help i can get!

Thanks again!

Haha you got this bro . You ask questions when in doubt . That is a great start imo. Me personally do not mind the pics . After all It is your thread . It will be good to go back and watch the progress . And when you are on your second grow you can compare growth rates . Or you can use an app like cannabis grow journal or grow diaries to record for yourself.

Day 5. Gave minor morning misting to get things going for the girls. AAH 1&2, PE 1&2 as well as WW 1&2

Nothing special noted. All looks healthy at least with my eyes...

Tried reflecting more more morning light into my balcony (the plants).

First part seems to work. Lets see the second part, which aims to give around an extra hour of afternoon sun. Fingers crossed...

I read enough warnings about overwatering. I held myself back for 4 days with only occassional super light misting.

I DID water today but probably only less than 100ml per pot plus yet some misting.

The center soil (Which is seedling soil ~ peat moss + humus) was still slightly moist but i watered cos the sides seems to have dried off quite good and its been 4 hot days. Also noticeably lighter. They still do look healthy though but what do i know?

I look more than I should. Like 10+ times a day so the boards i put up can hopefully make it lesser. I'm on holiday till Wednesday so i can only do this till then. Will leave my babies for 8 hours every day on their 7th day onwards... [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

I have found, since I am not working, that you can't look at them enough!

I also had some good intentioned advice from a Friend who had grown autos 6 or 7 years ago and he said leave them alone and don't overwater. Turned out mine was completely different than his. Almost killed it a couple times but, was not a good grow and that is when I joined AFN and havnt looked back.

Since being here my last 2 grows are MUCH IMPROVED!

Day 7

Will be leaving them for 8 hours today while i go to work.

Watered each pot yesterday around 400ml PHed water around 6.25. I started with around 6.5 when they were just starting. I like to mist them every morning to get them ready for the sun. So far, they seem to love it.

Also sprayed some neem oil and pesticide yesterday evening cos I saw a small bug. All claims to be organic. Its one of the local top brands so i hope its all good. I read that its good to spray weekly as a deterrent?

If anyone notices anything off, pls let me know.
