Poison Rainbows

ohhhh I'm excited!!!!

😎😁👍🏻

#5 popped. may need some help.

you got this. this is the easy part, they're still small. now if all 5 are female..... then you may run into some space issues...lol

Thanks @Glitch. Would be a bit scrunched in, but I'm stealing a page from @Poyal_Rines book, and gifting what wont fit. 😃😉 One maybe two will stay

hell yeah, share the love!!! get someone else hooked on growing!!!!

If mother nature needs a little help with #5, whats the best way to get that shell off?

ffffrrrreeeeedddddooooommmmm!!!!!!!!

yup, 👍

how can a plant that small need nutes already. The soil should hold enough nutes for that thing to root it out. Transplant it in a larger pot with new soil and leave it alone.

ok buddy 👍

I am a living soil organic gardener with almost 30 years experience. A well amended soil, initial nutes charge will last long enough to get that plant rooted and healthy. I transfer to 5 gallon pots and don't feed for almost a month. Plants grow like crazy and are well fed. I use Ocean Forest as a base.

awesome, but his soil isn’t doing that. furthermore you don’t know his set up maybe not enough room to upsize. you should know not to transfer when stressed.

I've never had a seedling get stressed.... Its the easiest stage of growth to manage. Light required isn't high and the soil can't be too hot of a mix. Temps are in the 80s and humidity is 60 or better. At this point all he should be doing is watching that thing get big. Adding nutes in soil at this point in its growth is stupid. If he was in rock wool or Coco I'd say feed them. Coco leeches cal mag so you really have to feed it in that media.

I'm not an expert, but with the dirt I've been using for like forever, is that Light Warrior seed starting mix? or any seed starting mix? Light Warrior and some others are very nutrient weak. Specifically not to burn out the seedlings. If that is the case, I would definitely start a weak feed. With the Nutes I use, I usually stay in a seedling mix for a month, with a touch extra sweetener for microbe happiness, saturating the top half inch of soil before switching to a pH balanced water with a light sprinkle of Silicon Dioxide, lab or food grade powder. and a top dress of a couple pinches of powdered Dolomite Lime, this will take a little bit to break down into the soil to give the plants the needed CalMag. All while the Happy Frog top, and Ocean Forest bottom handle the heavy lifting after transplant for the first month. Then I begin to ramp up my Feed, though I am running Autoflowers, so I am usually switching to the Bloom formula by then. I have switched from 5gal bags on this grow to 7 I will find out if it was worth it or to stay in the 5 gals...

Very nice!

just shade the plant for awhile & u be ok .

👍🏻 yeah, they're fine. The top off blu/red drooped at first, now has straightened up.

the weird looking ones look very much like they are going to be males.

Well, I have no idea, but I hope you're wrong. 🫰

hate to say it but the one in the red bucket has balls, under bottom leaf you can see it dangling looks like you have 2 male plants, sorry

Ok. So its lookin like 1 out of 5 female. Grrrrr...

The bright side being if pollinated you wouldn’t have to buy seeds for a while lol

lol. yeah. im goin out of town for july/August. Im gonna consider this the wife's grow. lol. see how she does. me, the newb, coaching a first timer. maybe i should rethink, she may want a divorce at the end. 😆 🤣 😂

dude!!! when did you flood your tent!!!!😱 as big of reservoir as you can fit. aerate it, and a syphon break at the top of the feed line, unless resi is lower than tent for syphon break: feed tube comes up and out of resi at the top. at highest point put one of these one way check valves that come with our air pumps, you know, the ones no one uses lol. drill a small hole in the feed line and stick the air check valve into it so that air can suck into the tube, but water can't push out.

if you need better description I can send you a pick

last grow. girls were elevated. i considered it a flush and cleaned up. lol i had one of those check valves on it! guess i had it installed wrong. ill try that trick in the future if necessary

bucket is lower for now.

if your resi has a lid you can also just put a hole w no check valve as long as your pump is strong enough it'll still get water to the plants. this method also kinda sketchy. can make a mess real quick. once I had lid off and was checking pH of resi, timer kicked pump on and I think I drank more fertilizer than the plants that day lol

😆 🤣 😂

My outdoor has some spotting like this too. At first I thought it was the dirt I accidentally got on my leaves but then they just sort of stayed. I'm planning on pruning them off when I can

thanks

cute pup :-)

Thanks. I think she likes their smell. my guard beagle. 😆🤣😎👽

guard pup 🐶

haha with that look, I'd say it was a drug dog in its past life 🤣😜

maybe in a different life. lol

What is it anyone?

It looks like a Helicoverpa zea, commonly known as the Corn Earworm 🐛 Im no expert though just did a little searching. I hope you can get it resolved my friend.

Those guys usually cause bud rot, so check the girls extra good from now on.

thanks

thanks

okay!!!! nice

natures camouflage is crazy. love seeing branches bent by colas!!!

yeah did you spot the caterpillar?

I did.....in pic 5 is that some sort of egg sack or just random detritus?

lol.. pic 5. i think youre seeing the burned tip of a big leaf that got cut. caterpillar in pic 1

yeah caterpillar is in 1 . in pic 5 there is some round brown thing that looks like it's attached to the underside of the petiole at bottom middle left of photo

Happy growing Growmie
