Hello all, well all the girls are standing tall this afternoon and all is well. Okay I do not treat seedlings like other people, no domes, quite the opposite I put a fan on them from day one. Here’s the thing I learned about miracle grow potting mix, it is basically peat moss, forest products (wood chips) and time released NP&K nutes, that’s it! So its like coco, holds water a little more so watering every other day is good, it breathes fairly well like coco. I wet the root zone by the size of the plant from the start every other day. This form of watering is like a coco or flood and drain hydro. With coco you’d normally wet the whole pot, but with the high amount of time released nutes in mg I only wet the area the plant needs releasing small amounts of nutes at a time, also I can not over water because I have all that dry soil surrounding the area of damp soil. Like today I know I poured a 16 oz cup of water in there 3 days ago and a 1 inch tall plant is shooting a tap a few inches down, and there is damp soil there and radial roots are reaching out closer to the surface right now and I only used a cup of water per plant today to hold them over 2 days. With the fan blowing right on them the top soil dries a little allowing oxygen to the roots. Miracle grow potting mix time released nutes affect how I do everything through out the grow!!! But it is also a great mix it grows nice plants, and since checking ppm in and out I know when to feed, and checking ph which changes through out the grow too. I think I make the best of it. I am changing to jacks 321 this grow and am looking forward to seeing how it works. But for now I am going to be using a product that is called a growth accelerator while the girls are little, it has no nitrogen so doesn’t burn seedlings but has micro and macro nutrients mg doesn’t have, as its not really soil. Its called speedy veg
Also I have one hlg 4k board @ 18 inches till we see if they streach or not, so far they look awesome to a new dad! Here’s today’s
Happy growing yall till next time

@TT I have been using it since grow 2, so I have always used it, from birth until about week 4 or 5, every other water. I really can’t say if it makes a difference because I aways have very happy plants, so I have not gone without. And as I say mg has nothing and I believe it helps in my case. You are welcome to search my last 7 grows instead of waiting to see these, I used same name just changed the # I was going to thank you for your interest, glad to have you along.
Thanks @Flitme appreciate you my friend

Hey yall hope all is well with you, nice day here on day 3 and the girls are doing fine Golosa and Sugar black rose streached a little but 11 roses is a shorty so far. 5 days ago I poured a 16oz cup of water on each seed, and since I have added very little water to keep seed damp and dampen top. Again the surrounding dirt is dry and it saps the moisture, and so you can not soak or over water. So today I flood the root zone with another 16 oz cup of water with speedy veg. Keeping the area 4 to 5 inches deep and around moist. Now allow 2 or more days before flooding root zone again. That was yesterday, today girls are looking awesome for 4 days and the fan is making those girls dance
Well enough about me it’s the weekend and for those who didn’t follow my grow 13 I have been showing my daughters outside grow here in Nevadas desert. Still getting some curly leafs from VPD, but so far girls are stretching and buds are developing. Won’t yield like last year but things are going nicely. They are pretty good for her work schedule and the heat this year. Anyway here’s the weekend update
Here’s Girl scout cookies shes stretching and week 1 of flower, she is a shorty because the fence fell on her, topping her to soon.

Here’s master kush she was extra sensitive to the heat and most of her branches were so curly a kid thought they were buds and stole most of her, we now have alarms on her grow. She is not quite a week into flower
Here’s Sugar black rose first to flower, shes 4 weeks into flower and her nuggets are getting nice and sticky. She’s a cute little girl
Here’s Cherry gar see ya and she is about done stretching and I call her week 1 of flower, shes a beast, cant wait to see her in a couple weeks!

Okay yall here we are at week 1 and the girls are doing awesome, everyone is happy and healthy. So we are off to a good start, with the light 18 inches above two are stretching and 11 roses is staying short. I had to put crutches on Golosa and Sugar black rose, as the leafs are too heavy and fan was threatening to blow them over lol. In a few days the stalks will harden and I can remove the crutch.
Here’s 11 roses she is a short thick girl and will have to deal with low hanging leafs, but that’s okay.
This is Golosa doing fine
And here is Sugar black rose
Okay all I am doing now is watering every other day, using speedy veg every other water. All good here just getting started. Happy growing yall

Okay yall here we are at week 1 1/2 and week end up date. What a difference 3 days make, my girls are off to a great start, the two I placed crutches on, golosa, and sugar black rose now have stiff main stems and no longer worry about them blowing over lol, so took crutches out. I also raised my light to 20 inches since they are past the beginning streach.
Here’s Golosa she seems to be leading the charge
Here’s Sugar black rose and she is a little behind but doing well
And of course here’s 11 roses short but doing awesome, her little branches are developing better than the others. Very nice.
So the last 3 days I had not watered, today I gave them a good drink, using the 16oz cup I did bigger circles as wide as the leafs and another 16oz closer to the plant so it goes straight down the middle of the pot. But I still have dry dirt around and below the moist zone. So I doubled the amount of water this time increasing moist zone as the plant grows, I believe as above so below, actually root zone is usually bigger than the canopy. I watered them with straight water today, I am assuming that all is well for the next couple days and will feed with speedy veg next time, then next watering I will start adding cal mag. Anyway all for now on my grow. Ill do my daughters next.
