First Grow Ever!

[Rosebud]

I haven't read your whole journal, is that two plants in one pot? If so I would sacrifice the small one, go in and cut it off at the soil with some good clippers.
I am babysitting a plant that came like that. I couldn't separate the roots and just let it go. I think that was a mistake as the small one is still small and the bigger one would be bigger with out having to share the same house.

no man i had 2 in a 5 gal its a no go imo.

i just took 3 plants from 3gal pots and soil and hosed the dirt to mud and removed all the dirt and put em into hydro, you may be able to seperate em adn the little one, possibly both will be stunted a bit, or kill the lil one but roots will still be in there

the 400w sounds like it will be cooler shoudl be good to go with that info there

my new htg t5 ho just tripped every thing second time :facepalm:

where u get your stuff from

Amazon...wife has a prime account...free shipping is awesome!

Tripped the breaker you mean? I am currently running a dedicated 20A circuit over to my grow area with #10/2 wire (can handle 40A). I would suggest doing something similar if possible

Yeah I wasn't planning on them to grow....I literally threw my left over bag seeds in my garden and pots....lol...and now I have like 15 plants im tending to. 13 outside and those 2 inside.

I will snip it like you suggest...maybe try to save it outside?

ya i got a dedicated 20amp right off the panel, maybe it was not the light that tripped the gfi but it kept tripping the run after i guess it has a 5 min reset is on and fine now gonna send u a msg tho don;t want to hijack his thread

The 400W will be just fine for your space. I am guessing that the leaves got damaged because they had nutrient solution poured on them.

You have 2 plants in a 3 gal pot? If so, I would recommend transplanting NOW before the roots get more interwoven than they already are. You are correct that 2 plants should not be in a 3 gal pot.


NEwguy, what else is on the same circuit? If the T5 is tripping the breaker, you are trying to run too much on that circuit or you have a short somewhere.

I tried to transplant the little guy......I don't think its gonna make it....I have it in sphagnum moss and a rooting hormone........but Its not looking good. Its ok though...I don't think I have room inside for another plant. The other plant has grown 2 inches in 2 days....stand at 13.5 inches now....very bushy.

No clue what strain it is, due to it being bag seed...but Its not lanky by any means.

Woke up this morning to this.......lower leaves mind you, first set of leaves from the soil. I pinched off two of them because they were small, the first pic is still on the plant


Whats up with that???!!

Going back to this.....I still have 4 of the lower leaves that look like that.....should I just leave them be or pinch off? I do think THG was right, I didn't realized that when I was feeding them my FF nutes that it mattered whether the leaves got hit....I have since got a can that I can direct pour into the stem/root (not a flowering type watering can)

I am referencing the pics in post #35 btw

 

[N.E.wguy]

i'd think ya splash of nutes is no good i have found the more u can just let the plant get rid of rather then cutting it or wtv cause later it is just chance for infection or wtv

K, so let nature rule.....got ya, thanks bro!




You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to N.E.wguy again.

 

[N.E.wguy]

hey thanks its hard not to rip em off but i am seeing its just bad in the long run can create little rot spots i usually leave like a 1/4' then that dies off later and i flick it off if i do cut em off.

Those leaves are disconcerting.

I think there was a misunderstanding....I wrote that line.....your journals and advice that I have been reading for a few months have been uber helpful....it was meant as a compliment...saying I wish I could give you more props....

Did not mean to offend at all, quite the opposite actually

You have misunderstood. This message pops up when you have given rep to someone and want to give it again right away--it is automatic. I don't know why it is set up that way. There is nothing unwelcome about it and I'm sorry you feel that way. But it is simply letting someone you wanted to give them rep know that you wanted to good rep them, but the preset parameters of the forum prevented it. It should be taken as a compliment.

I am guessing that you have poured nutrient solution onto those leaves while you were watering. Leaves do not like that. It is almost impossible not to get some nutrient solution on them when you have leaves near the soil level. I do not think it is anything to be too concerned over at this point.

Copy that! Thanks again for your input! I do have a question........

I have several plants outside that are doing fantastic!!! However...they are doing a little too well and are getting a little too big for the neighborhood. I just got my 2x4x5 tent. 400W MH/HPS air cooled setup Is on its way along with my inline filter/vent fan (440 CFM).

Could I transplant them, spray them down to kill bugs (I see red mites on the undersides of the leaves) and keep them in another area of my home until I move my current plant into the tent? I would hate to toss out such nicely growing plants.

Good mojo is all you will find outta me bud....no worries!
