  2. ph if u ask me. should be 6.5.
    mg soil sucks try foxfarm soil and botanicare nutes
    may be slight p def but may be caused from ph lock out so test it out
     
  3. i goggled the bottle water i was using and found that its average ph was 8.0 =/
     
  4. The odds are not favourable for this plant.
    Heres why:

    Its only 24 dayz old, not near mature. U have
    it on a 12/12 schedule. The hormones are
    struggling to change over as its so young.
    U have it in MG timed-release soil. Its harsh.

    I could go on.

    Im not berating u here. What I stated is true
    and I honestly am stumped as to what to tell
    u.

    How long has it been in 12/12 ???
    Are u able to repot into a new, different soil ???

    Lets start with that. Maybe this could turn out good.

  5. Well since this was my first grow i put it on 12/12 since seed to try and get quickest results. i guess that wasn't such a good idea.

    i'm still going to try and replant it in new soil and i'm ordering a ph meter. if it fails fuck it, it was my first try.
     
  6. Lol.

    I did that the first time too.

    U have a good attitude. Youve probably learned alot
    too.

    I would repot her and flip the lights back to 18/6 and let
    her veg for another month. It needs to develop and produce
    the hormones that it will need for flowering.

    If u let it grow out, u wont be disappointed. There will be more
    branches and bud sites. Be patient. I know its hard.

  7. Earlier today i replanted in some dirt cheap top soil(no pun intended) i'm going to go get some perlite this week and replant again because i didn't want it sitting in the mg.

    I'm not sure how much i can let it grow out since my box in only 19" tall. And can i still switch even though its been on 12/12 since seed and its almost a month old?

    Thanks Freak!
     
  8. MG is a good soil.

    The problem is the timed-release nute thing. It ruins everything.
    Its great for ornamental house/garden plants. I find it is not good
    for any fruiting/budding plants. It gives the fruits and vegs a harsh
    Nitrogeny taste. Weed included - as we do smoke/consume it.

    Anywayz, Im glad u decided on that gameplan.

    A typical plant will double - sometimes triple its size until 3/4 the way thru
    flower. So, as the saying goes...u do the math lol. 9 inches or less, going into
    flower :eek:.

    Thats ok. Youll get to read up on Fimming and LST, and become an expert.
