New Grower My wee grow thingy

[TheKernanator]

ok, i have an extra plant that i never planted :/ it looks suspiciously like another weed plant but i cant be certain as its nly come up in the last wee wile, will get pics up soon

What did you end up using for your soil? I don't see any perlite in the pics so am wondering how well it's draining. Pic 3 looks a little overwatered but that could just be the lack of proper drainage. The bit of leaf curl could be overfeeding.

growmoor multi-purpose compost, with added wetting agent for better water retention,
pic three is the plant i dropped
drill loads of holes in the bottom of the pot and cut slits in the edge of the bottom too,
i have the pots now wrapped in black plastic (with the bottom exposed for drainage,
drains pretty well been 4 days since i watered them, so will check the soil and see if the need watered again
please keep me on track muddy (no pressure hahaha)
thanks

yeah kern the stuff i used has that water retention shit in it too.. its for window boxes and hanging baskets and stuff.. stays wet and cold unless its in a conrtoled enviro (tent). what i did and noticed improvmets in growth also was to put my three plants in a triangle with cfl's between them in the middle.. warmed up the soil a bit for them as it was always cold

Will do. Just keep an eye that it doesn't stay too wet too long or starts to compact. Next time you should mix in some perlite if you can get it there.

so heres the end of the third week gonna get me some tomato nutes next week and . . . . give it to her :twist:

 

[Muddy]

Is it just the lights or do I see a little discoloration on some of the leaf ends?

Stay on veg nutes for 5-6 weeks, then switch over to the tomato ones.
