THE PLAN: On my first grow I went for one 5-gallon APotforPot. This time I’m going to try to squeeze two 2-gallon APotforPots into my little tent. I plan to FIM them and use LST to optimize the number of fat colas. Also, going to run the light at 12/12 from the get-go with the hope of getting them to flower as quickly as possible. I’m also going to try and be more careful with watering them, and I have Jacks 321 ready for when the soil mix starts to run out of gas. You can see in the pic above from two days ago that I have both pots prepared and ready and have set the seeds to soak in that Solo cup.
And now, after two days soaking, both seeds have sprouted cute little tails and I’ve planted them in the seedling cups. It’ll likely be about two weeks from when they sprout before I move them to the pots. I’ve already christened them with imaginative names as seems the custom on this site. The one on the left is WW2, on the right WW3
Now, I’m going to tag all those that showed interest in my first grow to join me here. Everyone else is free to come along for the ride as well.
I will say this. You may want to rethink on the 12/12 start to finish. I run 12/12 start to finish but I also have around 550 watts draw from the wall on my 2 HLG 260xl rspec.
I had to extract WW2 from it’s seed helmet and separate the leaves that had stuck together which is why she looks a little smaller and funky compared to WW3. She should bounce back fine. I expect to transplant them to the pots next week.
Day 15. Time for transplant! And gave each a half pint of water. Doesn’t seem like enough water to me, but this time I’m going to err toward giving less water and only give them more if they ask for it. I’m hoping in two more weeks they’ll be ready to FIM, and I’ll be thinking of flipping to 12/12.
Day 24. Giving each a half pint of water every three days. Hoping to FIM them next week.
Kind of hard to see in this pic, but the bottom leaves on the one on the left are turning brown and the top leaves on the one on the right are curling up. Not sure what the problem(s) could be
Both of these plants have been given the exact same treatment all along, yet WW3 (shown here on left) is stunted with curled leaves, while WW2 is looking tall and healthy. I swapped their positions in the tent in case how their getting light, or how the tower fan is effecting them, is the cause of the difference.
