Good day Mr. Growit community.
A beginning grower. Have some insight what is going on,but I want better bigger buds. I've had two harvest, but I want what I see and research. Now we can, Great thanks Mr.Growit. I'm using FoxFarm nutrition, and I'm little confused when to start week 1. Have all 4" stuff. Marshydro light (sp3000), in a 4x2x6. Ac infinity fans.Matrix 300w in a 4x2x5 just oscillating fan, and my 2x2x3 seed tent. I'm doing this all for me and my wife. OUR OWN GROWN MEDICINE! I'll continue to show you guys what I'm doing. But here is the start. These three were germinated nov 04,(paper towel/ baggie method.) Planted nov 06. Seeing light nov 09. Today still bottle feeding wondering when to call week 1. Please help.

The reason behind the bigger pots to start, is these will need to be in these pots for longer than usual. Outta room.
What soil are you in?
Pro-mix HP/w Mycorise. Just that until I transplant to a three gallon fabric inserted in a plastic 5 gl nursery bucket/pot. Something new i was going to try. Wanted to see the difference in the rooting. What do you guy and gals think?
@david hughes Since you're in Promix, you'll definitely want to start feeding nutrients soon. Most growers start giving nutrient on week 1 or week 2. I don't have much experience with Promix but there are others on this forum that do. Hopefully someone else chimes in for ya.
Yeah thank you. I'm just not sure when to call week one.
@david hughes Day one is the day it sprouts from the medium. Week one is days 1-7
@Mr. Grow It Ok week one of... veg. Like in the foxfarm nutrition feeding chart. Im using watering for twice a week in soil. See this is where I get confused. Days in seedlings, days in veg, days in flower... That why I'm righting all this down to get a better understanding to grow the best bud possible. And to get to just look at your babies and know exactly what she wants. I will usually repeat week4, and week8, and week12, or just let it grow. And I would flip 12/12, week8. Then it seems to take a min to see a change. Hope you understand.
I am feeded them the foxfarm seedling/clone nutrition guide. It just seems when I make up a week one and two, they just don't seem to look so healthy.
@david hughes Your plants look great in the picture you posted. Do they look different now? What dosage have you fed the plants? Full dose, half dose, quarter dose?
I used that pro mix for a while until I switched to hydro crunch. Def have to start feeding sooner but start low dose and work up over time, I also added cal-mag every other week until week 2 of flower. I don't know if you have the full FF line up, but definitely use the open sesame and cha ching with the schedule. Those have your phosphorus and potassium for bud development and growth.
Hey guy thanks for all the information. Yes sir I have all the foxfarm nutrition, down to besme. The flavor shit. I find it to drop my ph Alot. But I also use er experiment with, True Cannabis fertilizer, super myco tea, kelp blast, umm molasses. Don't necessarily have a set schedule, and it's not everyone all the time. Just little like "ok lady's what do you want. You name it baby." You know. On the three, im righting it all down. So yeah I'm thinking to start some nutrition.
Ok here is my arsenal. I've been starting with the Cultivation Nation 3 part first. Until some where week4, then do a week4 again w/ the grow big, but still Cultivation Nation bloom. When do I start the other bloom? This is what gets confusing. Your your in week3, week 4 is approaching, plants don't necessarily need water, time still ticking, where do I go? Hope you guys are understanding me. But here's the arsenal...
@david hughes It's always recommend to stick with the ratios specified on the feeding chart. I've tried going against it in the past and unfortunately it's easy for the plants to then show deficiencies due to lockout. Too much of one nutrient can lock out others.
@Mr. Grow It yes boss, I do follow the feeding chart. I just add different things to them at different part of the grow. Like the true Cannabis at times. Use the tea, in early flower, put blast in during flower. And not every water. But all the plants get the followed guide. Thank Mr.Growit.
Went with 3/4 tilt in measuring spoon, ph 6.5. Week1, guys not really sure to say what day it is. Am I in veg stage at this point?
@david hughes It depends on who you ask. Some consider week 1-2 as seedling stage and then veg starts. Some consider weeks 1-3 seedling and then veg starts. Some consider the seedling stage as part of veg; that's the way I do it.
@Mr. Grow It at this point I guess I will call Monday 23rd, week 1. Thanks Mr.Growit.
These ladies saw light on nov. 09. Today the 23rd, im calling week1.(day15). Going to run with days, not weeks, to try to elevate some confusion on feeding.(foxfarm nutrition guide). And use the week as a guide on what it gets next, not when.
