This is my first proper grow after doing tons of research I recently germinated a sensi seeds skunk #1 seed placed it into a rockwool cube then into my dwc bucket after day and a half of being in there Running a 250w dual spectrum hps with a 4 inch fan and ox carbon filter will keep updating as I go along not much to be seen at the moment 01/02 02/02 Short video of grow area http://sendvid.com/y674z01t
Subd. Prepare for the stank brother!! Is it from Royal Queen? And what size tent, nutes, all that shizz?
You need to lift it up and fill that pot with hydroton. You can't have light shining through the basket into your res. You're going to get an algae bloom. Also, that rockwool is pretty wet. Your water level is too high with the way the pot is filled at this point. You need to correct those things. It will not do well if that rockwool stays that wet. It'll likely dampen off and die. You just want the rockwool to be slightly moist. You have to play with your water level to achieve that. Or keep the level at the bottom of the netpot, and hand water the cube if it dries too much. You want it dry some though. So, the taproot searches for the water.
It's sensi seens #1 skunk area is just under 2 foot deep juyst over 3 ft wide and over 6ft tall I'll do that now now crankz That's the way i had it originally but was worried the seedling wouldn't be able to get what it needs but i've been top feeding anyway so will get on that soon as i've finished my cup of tea i'll try with the picture but it's awkward as it's in a wardrobe thank's for the support and help guys I really appreciate it it's pretty intimidating at this point Added another photo to the top of the thread it's starting to form it's first leafs
Don't let it intimidate you. It's just a plant. And, a picture of the whole grow area is just helpful to maybe spot any areas that may need attention. As for the plant getting what it needs, it has everything it needs in those two cotyledons to sustain it for a few leaf sets. It just needs the root zone to stay moist. Not soaked at all.
Thank's for that I will get right on it as for the picture my lights are about to go off so it will probably be tomorrow before I get one added the extra hydroton(clay pebbles) to the basket how long till I can expect to see roots at the bottom of the basket?
Slow growth still no roots underneith the basket added as much hydroton as i could anymore rolls back onto the plant so i'll have to wait till its slightly taller to add more will keep updating this however i find it hard to justify posting unless there significant growth to document thanks to everybody who's subbed and supported me so far
Thanks for taking the time out of your day to check up on my grow log much appreciated hope everything okay your end boss
This is the best I could do as can't show from outside (it'll give location away) http://sendvid.com/y674z01t
I do have on but it's on stand by atm didn't think I would benefit much from it at this stage correct me if I'm wrong unless it would strengthen the stem? Roots have finally shown hopefully see an improved rate of growth soon started to go slightly yellow but barely noticeable added first dose of nutrients canna Aqua vega 1/4 dose (slightly less) Did a res change and cleaned bucket Wednesday just gone No noticeable change in size since last photo however can see new set of leaves forming Thanks again to everybody locked in and subbed Everything has been cleaned so don't worry about the bit of muck here and there on photos
Yes, air movement will help strengthen the stem. Doesn't need to blow right at the plant, but air turbulence in the area gently moving the plant is a good thing.
Here's my special queen on feb1st and tonight Not the same strain but just to give you an idea. Once all those baby roots touch water top growth explodes!
