How are you watering them ?
most people just mist them to soil around stem is moist
Yeah I was pouring out of gallon jug. Guessing not the right thing to do.
Yeah you might be over watering they donât need much this early just mist or very light watering and donât keep soil around stem to moist either you want the roots to spread out if your going to pour from bottle stay towards edges of the pot and donât drench soil just moisten
Try a little less water and see it that help Bro
Iâm a beginner too but Iâll be watching your thread
Thanks I got a fan on them. So we will see. I had them in smaller pots but the roots where coming out of the bottom so I put them in bigger pots. So that maybe part of it.
Iâve forgotten who posted it, but I saw a nice little watering technique that I was going to try this time.
Place a glass, cup, bottleâŚover the seedling and give a little water over the top of it. I think they used about a cup of water.
The covering will allow for water to get around the plant instead of on it. I believe it also helps force the roots to seek out the nearby water without drowning the stem. I think that is the principal anyway, so donât hold me to it.
Just a thoughtâŚ
That sounds like a good idea. I will have to try it out.
Well it looks like it was just overwatering. Put a fan on them and let them dry out. About 48 later I just watered them with a cup of water and poured it over another cup and that covered the seedlings and it worked out just fine. Keeping the stem nice and dry while the rest of the soil is getting moistened.
Nice glad it is working out then
Enjoy and happy growing
Day 13
Recovering from overwatering still a bit yellowish. Reading some stuff and it look like could be sulfur deficiency but I donât think so. Pretty sure just overwatered.
Recovered nicely from overwatering. Still seems small for the time period.
I used peat pots to start and was reading that they can cool down the soil because of evaporation of the pot. Anyways they are growing slowly but seem to be minture size.
They looking good remember just because you donât see growth above the soil in the being doesnât mean a lot itâs just growing a nice root system below to support what coming above the soil soon they going to take off soon bro lol Id say another week they going to start getting big
Day 16
Things are moving along nicely. The girls are starting to pick up speed. One of them may have suffered a bit of burn. The leaves are still a bit yellowish but hopefully new growth will be a nice green. I changed out the soil in the one that looked like it was getting burnt. Switch to a mix of seed starter and a little FFOF which is what they had started in. So we will see what happens.
Day 21
One plant is doing nicely still in seedling phase. Growing has started to pick up a bit. I would have to say I got a couple more weeks before it goes to vegg phase.
Second plant had to do a flush yesterday. Has a sulfur deficiency. Plant is growing but just yellowish and deformed leaves. Going to find some sulfur today to add to the plant.
Flush - I used a pH water of 6.44 and added 1/2 tablespoon of epison salt into gallon of the pH water. Poured 3 times the amount of water for the size of container. Will find and add sulfur today. Hopefully anyways!
Peace
Day 26
Plant doing good. Very little yellowing of lower leaf. Most likely from overwatering.
Still recovering from issue. Has had an all in one nutrient with sulfur added at half strength. Next feeding will be full strength.
looking good ern,maybe a bit yellow but we are learning right?
Thanks. Yay it is a bit yellow think it is suffering from sulfur deficiency.
we are at the right place for help for sure!! these people really are into growing,and are not bashful about sharing info needed for successâŚ
Day 35
Girl one
She is hurting for sure been struggling for some time now. I have another thread about the issues.
not sure that is how you do a link and if it will work.
Girl 2 Doing much better. Giving one feeding of nutrients and seem to be handling them just fine.
