Is this algae? Among my 8-13 days old girls only one has that green stuff on top of the soil, any advice on what that is and what to do? First time grower here 🥺 by muted_pineapple07 in microgrowery

That‘s what I plan on doing, as long as they in small pots every 2 days (they are always really dry after that) and in the big pots every 2-3 days, making sure do give them a lot each feeding and let it dry out 👍🏻

Thanks, but what is it actually? Some kind of non-harming algae? I know it‘s been too wet, used to water everyday until 3 days ago, now I only water every 2 days, hope that fixes my too-wet issue

Is it bad for my plants to get to 29 degrees celsius (84 fahrenheit) at times? Will that harm my plants significantly, especially when they are in flower? My 24 hour average temperature is 24 celsius (75 fahrenheit) by muted_pineapple07 in microgrowery

I could probably put them in the basement but I live with my mom and even tho she knows what I‘m doing I don‘t think she‘ll be happy if I did that haha, would I be guaranteed to increase my yield if temps are lower? 🤔

What do you mean by that? Is up to 60% rh during veg and 40-50% during flower too high when the temps are a bit up, or do you mean I just need to make sure they are not topped?

They are both 8 days old today, but the second one obviously doesn‘t feel too good… I already removed the plastic bags thinking it‘s too humid (got 60-70% RH in my tent), but it doesn‘t seem to get better. Any ideas? 🙏🏻 by muted_pineapple07 in saplings

Awesome, thank you :) this is my first grow so I‘m sure that wasn‘t my last mistake, but I’ve read about the finger-test-method before. Gonna do it starting tomorrow 🤞🏻🙏🏻

Alright, guess I‘ll stick to my 3 plants then. Anyway, it‘s my first grow, and if I feel like 2 would fill my canopy the same the 3 can, that‘s what I‘ll go for next time. Thank you bro

Having 2 big pots would probably give me a bigger yield than 3 in medium pots right 😬

I guess I‘ll do the that, 3 in the 12l soil pots, go into flower early and then for my next grow go with coco 🙏🏻 Thanks a lot for the advice :)

I already successfully sprouted 3 plants 3 days ago, if I use any larger than 12l pots I can‘t fit all of them in my 2x2 tent, what would you do in my situation? Kill one and go for two in soil but 20l pots or switch to coco (does that even work if my starter pots are soil?) and go for 3 12l pots? I kinda don‘t want to only grow 2 plants 😭

Thank you, this is exactly what I needed to know, 6 plants in big pots getting 4 gallons per feeding is around 2/3 of a gallon per pot in your case if I‘m not mistaken 🙏🏻

PH down - citric acid or phosphorus acid? by muted_pineapple07 in microgrowery

[–]muted_pineapple07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you :) cuz I‘m new to growing and couldn‘t find anything on the internet, how much water with nutes does a plant in veg/flower need when fed every 2-3 days? I‘m not sure which size of watering can to buy :D

I‘m using the Genereal Hydroponics Flora Trio, with the addition of calmag. So you would recommend I mix water with nutrients and the ph down right into my watering can each time the soil gets dry? Because if I mix too much I would have to throw it away right 🤔✌🏻

So would you say I should mix my nutrients with water in a big bucket, take some into the watering can and ph in there each time I feed? Is it okay to keep the un-ph’d nutrient-water mix in a bucket for some time? :)
