so yeah, i tried growing outdoors this year and it failed. got some plants to reach about 4-5 inches and they just died out, didnt know how to save them. so now im trying an indoor grow. i germinated my seeds a few nights ago and now their all sprouting roots and shit. i need to plant them, so do i plant them all seperatly? (i have about 15) or can i let them start growing in the same pot?(haha pot) thanks for all who help me start my dream of smoking marijuana that i truely grew!!
ok, so would little paper/styrafoam cups work for now? then when they get big i put them in pots? and also, about how long does it take till u can tell if a plant is male/female and whats the best way to distinguish this?
yep that'll work, just try not to use clear cups it'll kill the roots. check out the stickie for sexing, if your indoor after you take it off 24/0 it'll start showing sex http://forum.grasscity.com/absolute-beginners/454814-sexing.html sorry posted the wrong lighting schedule oopps!
thanks alot for your help man really i do appreciate it. i was just about to get to that tho.. lighting.. what lighting aragments should i put them on just starting? 12/12??..
Start off with 18/6 or 24/0 for about 6-8 weeks. Then, switch to 12/12 to induce flowering. Good luck.
again, ty so much man. it is my dream to succesfully grow my own true plant that i can smoke to myself. best vibes to u man.
Ideally, you'll want to transplant from the cups at no more than 21 days. ^^^This is incorrect.^^^ I've never had a problem using clear pots for soil grows, and my flood tables have roots exposed to HID's all the time. No problems. Less than ideal growing environments cause algae and other problems that affect the roots.
