New Grower Heavyweight 2 fast 2 fast first time grow

[irishganjafarmer]

Hi guys complete novice attempting just one plant in a 2by2by5 foot tent I started with a 2 gallon pot (I know too small I realise that now) with reagular vegetable compost with small amount perlite mixed through
Next time I'll have proper soil sorted learn as we go along haha.
So germanted her in a mushroom tray in a small amount of soil cover her in cling film and left on the window sill above a radiator up she popped within 2 days I put her under 95 w cfl
Week one
Just gave soil small soaking of 200 ml of ph 6.8 water soil looked dry as I drenched it a week before planting so left it alone for the time being.

Week 2

As I'm new to this I find myself looking in on the girl way too often just gazing in satisfaction that I got her above ground and green in colour lol
She drank up all moisture in the soil so needed to water again proper first watering gave her 1.5litres of water ph6.8 10% runoff left her alone to drink it up as I hear a lot of new grows over water I rather under water hopefully that's better couple of days later she bushes out like a cabbage (must have liked the water)
Sorry about the dodge pics
Week 3 so feeding her twice a week at 1.5 litres at a time is working for me so this week started adding 1ml of bio bizz grow with feed taking 2 feeds a week as I said I rather lean on underwater than over! sorry forgot to mention I turned lights from 24/0 to 19/5 this week aswell
As I'm reading the rest benefits the girl's added another 200w cfl to help her along
Week 4
Thirsty girl upped to 2 litres every 3 days and she likes it flowering this week also thanks to advice on this site I got a marshydro led just the smallest in the reflector series and it's helping me big time plant is shooting up now standing 8 and half inches I had to trim my pot to gain more light into the nodes I know I've stunted her because I fucked up with the pot being too small live and learn I suppose anyway this is her today on day 3 in week 4 just fed her this morning took a few snaps hope you guys like and any advice appreciated

I'll be watching your grow because I just had a 2f+v break soil on 4/4.Your girl looks great so just keep up the good work.

She's a little small bro but from reading your thread you already know you made a few mistakes... And for your first grow that is the most important thing! You gotta get some going so you can figure out your style. Even with that aside, she is looking very green and healthy! Auto's are tough for a first timer because they can be unforgiving and get stunted - that doesn't mean you won't get some killer weed from her bro! The Fast Vast series is bad ass!! I'm just finishing some Fast & Vast (link in sig). Just keep taking care of her and you won't be disappointed. Like I said, for your first ever plant, and an auto at that? You got nothing to worry about!

Looking good igf best of luck

 

[F.N.]

Do not transplant plant directly into your pot make it at least three gallon container preferably a airpot or a rootpouch use a soiless medium IE: pro mix hp or sunshine mix#4. Try and keep your temps around 28 degrees celcius leds work better at 28 to 30 IMO. I hope this helps happy growing
