New Grower New here with 2nd grow sweet seeds, sooregonseeds , and original strain seeds

[Autoqueen25]

I think I gave the two sweet seed strains too much fertilizer. I started to see yellow on the tips of the leaves. Before I left my house I flushed them. I put some fertilizer into the soil when I mixed it so I am guessing maybe that was enough for them. I am so bad at math so I am eye balling and guessing. I put one tea spoon of bioactive into the soil ( 3 gallon pots) when I planted the seeds. Last week I put a teaspoon of the fertilizer on the top of the soil as a top dressing and that is when I stared seeing some light yellowing at the tips of some leaves.

Quick picture just showing how good they look but I will get pic of yellowing once I get home tomorrow.

I see people using tie downs to LST. I got these medal stakes. My attempt was to do the circular LST. Black cream is taking to it well imo. Dark devil isn’t. I have two stakes on dark devil and she isn’t growing vertically anymore. Black cream keeps giving me more length to stake again.

Here is dark devil

Ok so I do have a question. ( its been a year since I tried growing so forgive me I don’t remember the info I was reading but learning it again )

When you see these ( again I need to learn the Anatomy, give me a night haha) is she about to bloom soon ?

Damn one more question. Should I buy a ph meter for the soil ? I bought it for the water and a tds meter

She 's in pre-flower for sure!

Most that have been here for awhile would recommend an Accurate 8, but if you have a dependable ph meter you can always check the run off ph.

So I don’t need the ph meter for the water ?
I also realized my thread should be in the new grower journal section. ( if an admin can transfer it for me that would be great )

So more questions ..... last grow I saw my plants in pre flowering stage and they flowered pretty quickly after that. They took longer to get to this stage I had them outside in my greenhouse. My gh isn’t air tight I have roll up sides.

Both these girls are 4 weeks old ( do you count from days planted or from the first time you see it sprout ? ) if it’s from day they sprout they are only 4 weeks and if from time planted 5 weeks. I have the lights running 24 right now should I cut them back or leave them ? The other two seedlings are barely 2 weeks old they sprouted in 2 days.

I think I am going to pop some seeds this week and put them in the gh. Since I have a seed obsession I am going to look for some cheap autos to do experiments with !!!

its allways a good idea to check ph of feeds even if you dont adjust,pens seem to break when not used in a while.
everyones different some count day 1 when seed planted my day 0 is when the seedling pops up,some day 1 is when 2nd set of leaves appear.no right or wrong.
for cost of electricity i see no point in running more than 20/4 if temps are good.
good luck.

Quite the opposite! A good dependable ph meter is absolutely necessary!
