SK#1.1 : PH 6.0 PPM 670 . I increased nutes to half recommended dose . A little aggressive from what I have been doing but I feel the plant can handle the boost and increase the ppm over the next week till it is a max strength . Right around 1000 ppm . Feeding chart on GH website says 1350ppm but I feel that is a little high so I’m going to adjust the formula for a 950-1000ppm range . If someone has a feeding chart that is better suited for marijuana and not a general feeding chart for general hydroponic trio please feel free to post it . I may go up to the full 1350 ppm depending on how the plant response to the bite increases . Goodbye seedling stage , Veg here we come .

WW / SK#1.2 : plants look goo and are growing their 2nd node . We is still deformed looking but is growing well. I will be adding them back to the tent and into the hydro pots later this week . I hoping to close the growth gap on these to compared to SK#1.1 with some cropping as WW / SK#1.2 are about a week or so behind . I well try to low street train then and do a little more aggressive cropping on SK#1.1 . I feel this will help to even put there growth so they can enter flower at the same time .

All and all everything is growing good and healthy .

SK#1.1 sprouted on 4/27/2018 making today the end of week two of seedling . I was concerned about it’s growth but the time line seems to be right on track . At its current rate it should have its 3rd node fully visible within a few days and be entering veg makin it about 3 weeks in seedling which is right where I had hoped to be . This being my first grow I was a little panicy after loosing a few seedlings . But with the current progress I feel confident with my setup and the progress of my young marijuana plant . Once all 3 seedlings have entered into the veg cycle I will start posting weekly updates . Until then I we’ll continue to post daily .

well likely be starting SK#1.2 and WW in a 50PPM nute solution in a few more days . And slowly increase this over the following week or so.

SK#1.1 : PH 6.1 PPM 360 . Third node is visible . Minimal vertical growth . It is looking good . Maybe another week Before I have her on full nutes . Waiting on third node to grow in completely before I raise the nutes any further . All and all see is looking great .

WW/SK#1.2 : seedlings are doing well infer there new light . WW’s leaves are deformed but she seems to be doing great . SK#1.2 looks great also . They are both progressing and should be back in the tent in another week or two .

Temps were a little low today . But still within range . Had to play the heat shuffle game a little but wasn’t to bad . Well prob be lower temps till Sunday due to the cool weather we are having for the next few days . But I don’t anticipate any problems.

I let her do all her veg seeds in the tent so it helped convince her .

Having a supporting partner is great... I remember those days...
lol

I have taken over about a 3rd of my bed room . With my 2 4x4 tents and the closet now . Pluse my cedar chest I keep all my supplies in . My girlfriend has been surprisingly ok with it all lol. Can’t wait to move to my new house in a few months. As long as this all goes well I’m planning to build a 12 site dwc as well as start a soil grow in the 20x10 green house on the property. Will likely still keep my dwc indoors because I live in the north . This way I can still grow year round .

CFLs should be 2 inches from the plant.
LEDs that are like CFLs maybe a little further, but not 20". You will encourage them to stretch with the lights so high.

[DankwingDuck]

It’s about 20-22 inches from it I just attached it to my closet bar above my dresser . So far so good . Could prob get closer . Doesn’t seem to make much heat at all . Is only 19w

[Chefbjy]

That's great. Get the light at a good height? I use the hand test. Put your hand over the top of the plant hold for 10 seconds...if the back of your hand gets hot it's too close. Can prob get it pretty close.

Very surprisingly my veg plants made a full recovery. They looked almost dead this morning and completely bounced back . Still glad it wasnt my marijuana plants . The last thing they need is any stress . Really glad I don’t have to sleep with one eye open . I thought my girlfriend was going to kill me . New seedling light is really making a difference . Can already see growth On my too seedlings since hooking it up.

SK#1.1 :PH 5.9 ppm 250 ( ppm came out a little higher then I wanted but I’m going to let it be ) looks healthy and visible growth .

WW/SK#1.2 : these little guy had me worried for a moment but they really made a turn in the right direction. After 12hrs under new led they show visible growth .

( side note : alway check your caps . Went to shake up my ph down and splashed it on my veg seedlings . Will likely have to replant everything as it began to droop almost instantaneously. Positive side it didn’t get on my marijuana plants . So no real big lose , just kinda annoyed with myself I think I missed one cucumber and one pepper plant . Sad sad day but my marijuana is good so I’m not going to lose sleep over some 50cent veg seeds )

[DankwingDuck]

That stretch happened while they were under the 600w hps .

[Cannabliss]

They're looking good. Watch the stretch though. If they start stretching more than that, lower the lights just a bit more. Nice setup btw.
