This is my third grow, so I have some experience. I did topping, FIMming and supercropping in my previous grows. The mistakes I made this time were caused by my utter lack of concentration. I'm not even trying to make excuses 🙂 I wanted to try something new and manifold looked like a good...

For some reason I can't stop failing. I cut the new plants correctly this time, but I nicked one of the branches with the growth tips. I slapped some tape on the cut because I figured that time was of the essence. The branch looks mostly OK after 3 days except one of the leaves (see...

I wasn't aware that the shell could prevent the seedling from growing. Well, I'm still learning. Here's a comparison of the good one and the stunted one.

I took an even closer look and removed the membrane as well. Thanks for the tip because that actually did it. The top opened up! Now we'll see if it survives all the poking and pulling. I was as gentle as possible.

Yes, they were both 16 days old when I took the pics. There definitely was a shell on the stunted one. I just removed it. Here, take a look at those macro shots.

I don't want to make another thread, so here's an update: Well, this sucks. This is my punishment for killing two perfectly healthy, fast growing plants. Attached pics are of the same strain grown in the exact same way as the old ones. They're both on day 16 from seed. For comparison: the...

One more question about the AC Infinity base: can I put it under the pot at any time? Or does it require setting up before I transplant from cup to pot?

Cool. I think I'll get one when I need it. I rarely leave town, unfortunately. What kind of weird strain is that in your picture?

Looks interesting, never heard of those. Although it doesn't look like they can hold a whole lot of water. How often do you have to refill them?

I grow 1-2 medium sized plants at a time (4ga/15L fabric pots, soil). I use about 1L of water per 24h for each one. Is something like this reliable? https://www.growin.de/irrigation-kit-economy-for-20-plants?___store=gi_sv_c_en&___from_store=gi_sv_c_de I'm aware that I also need a water tank...

*sigh* I have no excuse. It doesn't look like any new tips are going to magically start appearing. I just planted the remaining two seeds. Looks like I lost about a month and a few bucks, so it's not that bad.

Really? Can grow tips still grow out of those? I still have two seeds of the same strain, so I can still start growing those just in case. It would be a compromise of sorts and only set me back maybe $20.

I just did this. Point at me at laugh. I wanted to do make a Manifold, but I had a severe brain fart and cut off the growth tips. Should I just dump those and start from scratch?

I'm growing Shiva Skunk and it's on day 30 from seed and day 12 since cup->pot transplantation. I use Canna Terra Professional, which has pH 6,0 and NPK 12-14-24. I've read somewhere that the NPK in the soil gets depleted after a while. I'm also well aware that I'm supposed to start adding NPK...

OK. I'm in no hurry, it can wait. Cheers.
