Hi, thats my first post on this forum, I just love you guys and your support. Most things I know abt growing I learned reading different topics here. Apart from few scientific articles I managed to find on the web.
Sooo, to the point. I planted two seeds early in march and have kept the seedlings mostly inside in warm and sunny place until late april. Under plexiglass celling, to be precise, perfect spot for germination and nursery. Fed them with a teaspoon plain water enchanted with kelp meal and minuscule amounts of salicin acid, they did really well and now they are transplanted into bigger pots and left outside.
I keep spraying my mixture on them twice a day. There is also kelp meal added into the soil in amount one cup per plant. Pots are around 30 litre universal planting soil with medium sized grains of perlite. I keep pinching it with bamboo stick, so it stays loose even after watering. Every week I add little bit of dandelion (mostly) tea to my water, just a little not to overload my babies with different stuff.
Its june now so my plants are like 60 days from sprouts, I keep LST them by tying tops low and apart from each other. On one plant there are already 6 baby branches coming out. I also did top both of them once (very early, it was possibly a mistake). I keep removing one of big fan leaves week or so just to make myself a green sandwich :-]
One strain that is out of concern of this post seems to be doing perfectly well, its light green and have no marks of sickness. Its the one with sox branches. Unfortunately I forgot name of this one.
Second baby is Thai-tanic - mostly sativa strain of thai cannabis mixed with classic skunk (according to Flying dutchmen who provided me with seeds). She grows really slow and today I noticed that most of developed baby leaves on the new tops are curled. The two developed fan leaves are deep green and also develop marks of curling and browning on very tips. Also, they are very "hard " in touch, like cardboard or something, you can bend them with a "click" inside or outside.
It's the leaves curling that concerns me, I'm sure I'm not overwatering them and my nutrients are very low in N. I just keep the soil wet down the pot, the top inch stays almost all the time dry. She is also very slooow growing plant.
Anyone got idea what is the cause of this slow and somehow disturbed growth?
Greetings lads!
