1st Grow Post Military

Dropped three seeds about two weeks ago in 5 gallon pots of CoCo. X2 Super Lemon Haze and 1 DosiDos. 10 days above soil in my 2x2 and looking good. I know its a small grow space but like, screw it. Im going to let it ride and see where I land.

Pushing a SF1000 and x4 16in full spectrum AC Infinity light bars at their lowest setting.

Started highly diluted Nutes today. Advanced Nutrient 3 part with some myco at 6.4 ph and 400ppm. Bumped up my watering/fertigation to a little over a half cup a plant today and will see what the ladies tell me tomorrow.

Attached are pics from last night. The smaller two greened up a bunch after getting nutes today.

I appreciate. Excited to be here. Ive been lingering for a month or so and finally jumped in. Seems like a solid forum. Way less douchey than the dumpster fire of Reddit grows.

It’s a challenge to get things nailed for sure. It will be routine with some experience. Use this thread as a grow journal, update it regularly with status or questions, and experienced growers will be happy to help you along the way.

@SlipperyShrimp69 welcome aboard to this canna family.

You mentioned coco as your medium, coco’s ideal pH 5.8. 5.5 to 6.2, 5.8 is the happy zone for pH. Ideal pH for soil mediums 6.5 to 6.8.

  Feeding a seedling 200 to 300 ppm.  

Watering your seedling, keep the water 2 inches away from the stem.

Your off to a great start, remember, less is better starting off.

Welcome aboard.

Checked on the tent this morning and fed the plants again. The Dosi Dos has just been taking off. Its potted in a coco mix that I made for my house plants with worm castings, coco, perlite, clay balls and orchid bark. I was running low on premixed coco so its probably 2.5 gallons of my hodge podge with 2.5 gallons of Fox Farm Cream of the crop in that pot.

Anyways, I appreciate everyone here. Probably going to treat this thread as a journal and pick some folks brains as I go.



Heres how we’re looking this morning.

So, its been a few days. (Day14)

Accidentally got some water/nutes on the leaves of one of the SLH and it left a couple burn marks but its hasnt seemed to have any effect other than its ugly. Otherwise the SLH are still lagging behind the Dosi but im sure it will all even out sometime later next week. The dosi is thriving with 5 sets of true leaves, so I said YOLO and trimmed off the two finger leaves and tried my hand at FIM. I’m going to see how it plays out and hopefully bust out the bondage gear for her no later than next Friday.

Do your guys plants prefer handcuffs or rope?
