So I only recently joined the forum. Been reading a while and was debating on starting a journal or not. I have already made a couple mistakes and I'm hoping to still at least get some bud off of these plants.
I germinated 5 out of 6 beans successfully, planted them directly in soil and wrapped with plastic wrap to keep humidity in, I also started out in a DIY grow tent, made out of 2x4 and mylar wrapping. I immediately regretted doing it. The mylar just wasn't up to standard for me.
The light is a 1000w full spectrum from amazon. and the grow media is premier potting mix from Canadian tire. It was all I could get my hands on besides miracle grow. Day 1 for my girls is Oct 21.
This is one of the white widows. (two white widows two blueberry and one great white shark)
This is where I make the first mistake lol. I didn't soak my soil before planting them I only made the top moist. So I decide to water around the plants till I see run off and then I dont water for another week or so.
The plants all got to this stage fairly fast, but it seemed like they slowed down compared to a lot of grows I am following. day ten I watered them with sensi bloom a and b, as well as sensi calci-mag. (1ml per L). I should also note that all water for this grow from the beginning is RODI.
This is a picture of the plants today in thier new tent. I tore down the mylar this morning and put them in a 4x4 grow tent.
They seem very small to me for two weeks, especially compared to some grows. Also when I went down this morning i noticed the plant on the left suddenly looks a little deformed has has some yellowing, just noticed that. Is it from the nutes I wonder? Here is a close up pic, if i can't get anything here I will post in the infirmary as well.
Thanks for any info or advice anyone is about to give lol. I am very new to this so it's quite the learning curve
