What's up guys. New here!
Me and my girlfriend decided we were going to start our first grow recently. We're using a 250watt hps light and have 5 plants on the go (super automatic sativas). We didnt expect all the seeds to germinate so weren't anticipating 5, anyways...as far as we can tell they look healthy and seem to be growing nicely. They have been in the soil for a week today. Were using a wardrobe with 3 small inlet fans at the bottom and one outlet at the top, weve managed to keep the temperature just below 30degrees after a lot of fan adjustments etc.
We had been talking about growing for a while, but this kind of happened out of the blue when a mate of mine came round, and briefly mentioned he had his light in the car. Next thing I knew we were down at my local seed store and gardening centre.
Now, I've been doing a lot of research since planting (would have made more sense to research first, I know I know, but I was just taking a mates advice) anyway, I've planted in 5 litre pots so they are going to need a transplant soon enough, which is our first mistake, secondly we planted in miracle grow potting mix...since researching this I have read nothing but bad things, so I've been thinking, when we transplant to 3 gallon pots...is it a good idea to use something such as fox farm to fill the new pots? Will I then be able to start feeding the plants without getting nute burn? Or will there still be too much miracle grow potting mix with the feed in? Sorry guys, we are absolute beginners! This is my biggest concern at the minute so any feedback on this would be awesome!
Ill attach a couple of pics of the plants from around 4days old. Unfortunately I'm away from home atm and don't have any pics of the full set up, will post these when I'm home on Sunday.
Thanks for looking guys, look forward to hearing back from you!
