My first real grow: need help

GrowDank · #1 (**permalink**) 04-27-2009, 09:37 PM

i germinated these seeds and they were planted on friday it is now monday

These are my babies:

A few questions:
-They can be in sunlight already right?
-How do i keep them from being eatin, my last attempt at a grow my plants were food for bugs at about 2 weeks old?
- How often do i water the seedlings?

you could set them out in partial shade - two to five hours of direct sun, or all-day dappled sun. Morning sun is better than afternoon cause it isn't so hot.

My seedlings go right to direct sun or right under the big lamp if it is on the 18/6.

Spray or put a see through cover on em. With ventilation holes of course.

When soil is dry or they start wilting - jk

don't wait till they wilt.

Welcome...good luck.

I find my sprouts can take the strong Spanish sun from day one.

Give them as much sun as possible. Plants love sunlight.

My plants are doing pretty good i have 3 they are still small.
They get tons of sunlight, im having trouble with watering and keeping from dry. i water them 1x a day
My camera broke so im lagging on the updates hopefully get a new one soon.

Im back, still no camera but managed to get some shots with my laptop

My plants are doing good, they are now about 3 months old. they arent that big because they get so much more sunlight throughout the day than darkness, i figure its good for them so i let them do their thing. i added a clone from the club and two seedlings to the family. the biggest ones are females

and of course the clone is and i am anxious to find out what the seedlings are.

Sorry for the Quality and my snapshot skills...

-The biggest one

-Clone

-the clan

- seedlings

i dont think its a good idea to grow in clear see thru containers

My experience has been far different than yours. I've found the more direct sunlight they get the faster they grow.

i am a fourth time grower and i would say after the seeds have popped thou the soli and discarded to shell casing the plants are ready to go outside in the shade for the first fews days and the then go into direct sunlight for as much of the day as possible. now for bugs i use moth balls around the pots or whatever you use like a perimeter. also piss or human hair is good for larger animals. if u have the luxury of seeing you plants daily i only would water ten when the very top of the soil of dry to the touch. got any other questions drop me a line.
