So yea, name is Mogwi and here is my first attempt at growing the beautiful plant i love and enjoy everyday:
All the pictures if have taken were taken on the 37th day of growth. Sorry i don't have pictures of prior stages of this project.
5 bagSeeds were germinated and planted in 16 ounce red plastic cups on the 16th of October. Plants were then transplanted into 2 gal. grow bags on the 2nd of November. This was 18 days after the seeds were planted, i do remember that the plants were definitely getting root bond, i probably let them go a little to long before transplanting. Plants are still in the 2 gal. grow bags and it is the 37th day of growth. I am thinking that they should be transplanted once again, not sure though. Would it be a bad idea to flip them and check to see if they are starting to get root bond, grow bags might make it a bit** to check ?
From day 1 i have been watering them with distilled water every other day. After i transplanted all 5 they have been getting 1 gal. total every other day split up in between all 5. So a 1/5th gal. of water every other day to each plant. Not sure if this too much/too little, or just right. Idk they are looking good though, what do you think ?
As far as nutrients goes i have been using the Fox Farm threesome (Grow Big, Big Bloom, and Tiger Bloom). Soil used was the Ocean Forest Fox Farm Soil.
The first nutrient feeding was giving on the 4th of November. It was on the 20th day of growth, 2 days after they were transplanted. The dose was 2tsp of Grow Big and 2tbl of Big Bloom to 1 gal. of water.
The nutrients dosage from day 22 all the way to the 18th of November has been 2tbl of Big Bloom and 3 tsp of Grow Big to 1 gal. of water. Today i switched them to 3tsp of Tiger Bloom and 2 tbl of Big Bloom to 1 gal of water. I have also switched the lighting to 12/12 today!
The lighting system being used is a 4ft 4 bulb T5 HO floresent light system. For a while they were under 18/6 lighting, but most of the time the light was on 24hrs a day. I have just now switched them to 12/12.
There is a 4in. 80 cfm can fan exhausting the 48"Long x 20"Wide x 48"Tall tent. On the right side the is a intake vent with a small houshold fan pushing air in.
blah so on the 12th of November i switched the lighting to 12/12 but 4 days afterward i decided to switch them back to 18/6. I also decided to top two of the plants. I also lst'ed two others. I think i did this way to late in the vegetation stage but i kinda wanted to dabble in the training side of growing. Idk what you guys think ?? And for the last plant it got nothing. This did even the canopy up perfect, where as before the training the two i lst'ed were a good bit taller then the others. So what do you think, was it a good or bad idea lol ?
So that's about all for now, at least my head is empty of anything else to type. I will be updating at least 1 time a week all the way to the end. So stick around. I also encourage any and all questions, concerns, input, ideas, criticism, anything ! What am i f***kin up, what should i not be doing, what am i doing that is right lol. So come on and tell me what you think.
Thank you all,
Mogwi

Your Lowryder should be fine. Every now and then you'll get a mutant plant but they usually work their way out of it.
