My first grow

Discussion in 'First Time Marijuana Growers' started by Thehighshark, Apr 8, 2022.

  1. This plant is my first time growing anything can someone tell me what they think I don't even know if it is a female or male or what strain it is

  2. Too early to tell. Careful not to over water.
     
  3. Yeah I do the 2 inch down if it dry then I water till runoff
     
  4. Its better to let it dry out more than that. Most of us lift the pot up a tad, if it weighs next to nothing it's time to water. It takes a little practice when you start growing but it works well. They really like to dry out well in between watering. Looking pretty good for a first time grow tho!

  6. Soil needs to dry well between waterings. Get used to lifting one side of the pot with thumb and index finger to feel the weight differences as it dries. When it is light, time to water.
     
  7. Yeah I usually do the 2 inch down but I will try to do better how long does it usually take for them to show sex this plant is almost 6 weeks old
     
  8. Looks like an autoflower.
    What kind of light and distance to canopy? If it doesn't flower in the next two weeks, you'll need to change lighting to 12/12 to try and jump start flowering.

  9. I don't know the strain or if it's a male or female I just got the seed out of a batch that's why I put 2 pictures of what I am seeing I thought the ones on top were pre flower it's a 6 weeks on Sunday

  11. It's it's bag seed, you need to switch your light cycle to 12 on/12 off to start flowering. If it's auto flowering you don't need to.
     
  12. I don't know if it's an auto or not
     
  13. Possibly. Unfortunately you still have to wait.
     
  14. You found it in a bag of weed? Didn't order it?
     
  15. Nope
     
  16. Assuming you meant you found it in a bag and didn't order it from a site. In that case, 99% sure it's not an auto. Plug your lights into a timer and set the schedule to 12/12.
     
  17. Just found it in a bag of weed and threw it in a pot
     
  18. You think it's ready for that at 6 weeks old
     
  19. Yup, so 12/12 will start flowering it. Leave it on 12/12 all the way to harvest. When it starts flowering it will get about 2-3 times as tall as it is (called the stretch phase), after that it will stop growing taller and start making buds (if it's a female).

    You can flower it whenever you want, that's for you to decide.
