Using fox farm now also could i take large bark chunks out now or is it to late? Thanks again!!

[Minnesotabrandon]

Wow thanks everyone! Im going to transplant them tommorow! How big of a pot should they go in? Also im using a 600watt pink red and blue led hydroponics lights also should they be under light 24/7? Becuase they are..

[Minnesotabrandon]

Yes there are some bigger Chunks of bark will it be okay to remove them now or is it to late? Also what light schedule should they be on?

Welcome to the jungle!!! the spot are from ph being to high for the soil you have it needs to be at 6.0 to 6.2 because the soil is not ideal compared to the super soils.Trans plant into bigger pots and get better soil. If your plants are small like they are the amount of water I use at that size is 1 cup per day per plant or 9 oz. per day also if your not getting any variation on your soil ph your meter might not be working properly.

It does look like a lot of bark chips in your soil. Get a mix that has nice dark loose soil mixed with perlite. Transfer to bigger pots and make sure they have drainage hole. Check the pH of your water. should be between 6 and 6.5 Water thoroughly until you see at least a little run off. Then allow to dry before watering again. At least that is a start.

Do you have access to a garden supply store? If so, just get a nice organic soil with a good amount of perlite mixed in. Fox Farm is a highly recommended brand, though I don't have that where I live. You can order it online. I used a soil called Baccto. Was wonderful. They say that Miracle Grow soil is not good because of the time released nutrients.

Exactly root bound. Small pot. Needs water. What lighting?

holy cow...transplant ...water...and bend it over as much as possible...to stimulate side growth

Id say they need a transplant to a bigger pot and maybe some magnesium. It also looks like overwatering or maybe too little light

Hi there, and welcome! What exactly is the medium it's growing in? Am I seeing large bark chips? Nebula has mentioned that somehow cannabis does not do well in that. I wonder if that's why they're so small. Stay tuned...you will probably be getting some more expert advice soon. Good luck!
