Help…..not really growing

@Mountaintime ,Hey man don’t feel bad or discouraged…WE ALL started out at one time or another…and mistakes are part of the game. I feel ya on the sometimes overload of info and everyone has their own way so it can be confusing… My first grow I bought ILGM seeds and a Pot-4-Pot kit…@ the time this was my first (Legal) :rofl: :rofl: grow…I went with Blueberry autos… I first used the kit supplied expandable peat pellets and I had no issues with the seeds or the kit…In fact it was one of my best yields … After I harvested and pulled the entire plant out of the fabric pots I noticed that the roots had grown through the netting on the peat pellets just fine…But i wondered if they were hindered by it… The next batch I decided to cut the netting before adding the seed so the roots could expand,.I soon read more here on the forum and sometimes elsewhere and decided to use solo cups…The roots definitely were more prolific and free to expand…Your peat pots are not a “bad” thing and your plants should still be okay…but I would try next time to use solos…Good luck and keep us posted on the plants progress…Also yes I think investing in nutes geared for Cannabis would be better then what you are using…Jacks 321 is great!!

@AL_GREEN ~ I really appreciate you reaching out. You are definitely right, there is so much information out there. On the advice from a few above, I went ahead and transplanted the young ones that were in the jiffy pots into solo cups last night. Fingers crossed :crossed_fingers:they don’t shock out. I also added additional soil to the ones that stems were so long. I will order the Jacks today and start using that. Hopefully it will also get the ones in the fabric pots moving along. I feel I’m going to run out of growing time but it is what it is as this point! Lots and of lessons learned. Again ~ thank you!!!

Is this the correct Jacks 321? Wanted to check before I ordered. I’m assuming it gives proper dosing instructions?

You’ve gotten lots of good advice already here. I’ll add in a small one - outside with heavy cloud cover is still waaaay more light than your indoor bulbs. I would try to minimize time spent inside if you can. Unless it’s going to be winds and hail that are damaging, rain and thunderstorms won’t hurt right now. Wind stress will make them stronger, as long as it’s not snapping the stalks or branches.

Hi everyone ,

I am running multiple indoor grow facility using blue dream auto flower seeds.

May I know what is the longest grown period of time one can resuscitate a plant if it has be grown wrongly initially ?

For example, we have a batch grown for 8 weeks but failed to show good buds. Can we retrim and restart giving proper nutrients to revive the process of getting big good flowers again?

I am in that situation now. Let’s just assume I have now the correct setup and nutrients ready.

Appreciate if someone can share their similar experiences with me.

Thanks.

It takes 8 to 10 weeks from the 1st sign of flower. Depends how long they stay in veg mode. I don’t do autos, but the flowering time should be the same.

@GardenDan , thanks for telling me that. I’ve left them outside unless it was heavy storms. Good to know I can pretty much leave them out through the storms. Looks like “sunny sailing” for the next week or so🤞. Greatly appreciate your input.

Is this the correct Jacks 321?

Yes! Looks like the real McCoy… The directions are on the package (I believe)…also on their website and a good demonstration on YouTube .Its 1/2 tsp of part A - 1/4 tsp of Epsom and 1/2 tsp of part B. Its great stuff…
As far as time left if your doing Autos I don’t see a problem…

Thanks ALL,

Much appreciated.

I need further help over here and praying for someone or many can send me some good advice on the following.

I am having problems with the water feeding volume per plant. I am growing Blue Dream strain in an indoor 800W LED lighting facility with control temperature and humidity in place.

Can someone help me fill in the quantity to your best knowledge? I understand it will not be 100% accurate, but at least it is a benchmark for my growers.

To many variables to say for sure. Type of soil, size of pots, temp of grow space.
They only need a couple ml when they small. As they grow they consume more water. I always water in the am as soon as my lights come on. Overwatering is caused by the frequency of watering and not the amount given at 1 time. Once you are in veg state, water til runoff and dont water til dry. My plants are in 2 gal bags and consume almost 1 gal a piece. They are just now starting to flower.
