First grow, Auto Easy Ryder

[BigFlats]

Hey anotherday, I went and checked on my babies today and saw that one of them, (the bigger one) has drooped over. Around day 4 I was clipping the two first small leaves off and slightly damaged the stem. She was slumped over so i watered an later that day she was standing back up perfect. Today she looks the same, the only thing i can get is that her leaves are getting too big. Here are some pictures of her, is she totally ruined or is there still hope? I added more soil to her pot and watered her. PLEASE HELP IM WIGGING OUT!

I'll tell exactally why your plant is wilting, those 2 small leaves you cut are what feeds the plant for the first few days! It doesn't have established leaves cause it only a couple of days old. Calm down, and just let the plant go... not to be negative...

By the way, where did you purchase your EasyRider seeds from? I purchase 10 regular "supposedly" EasyRiders from Amsterdam Mar Seeds co. but none of them tuned out to be autos. They are all healthy and 18 days into flower. Appear to be different strains. I'm no expert...

Thx... Yeah it kinda sucks. I'm just glad I have 8 healthy girls. This is only my second grow and the first was some bag seed. This time around, my main goals were to order good strains and as stupid as it may sound I wanted to know the exact name of what the hell I was growing so I could watch others grows. And come to find out that ER is not a very established strain, but that's a whole other story...

I did not order those ER as feminized, just reg seeds.

Hiya mate. Subbed and here to help as and when. My first grow was Easy Ryder and learnt a lot with them. Nice strain to smoke. Any questions ask away no expert but moderately good grower and learnt hell of a lot from on here and my mistakes

Ah, I thought all the ryders were autos? Hmm. anyway i got a diesel ryder and its about 20 days old from seed just starting smelling skunky and Its incredible how early they start with 18/6. Auto's are cool, but those are just for fun for me.

Shit, I misread your post. I though you said Feminized. But yes I ordered ER autos non-fem.

How many nodes did you have when it started flowering? When did it show it's first hair?

I have come to the conclusion that I'm going to stick with photo plants from now on. I made the mistake of ordering seeds before doing my research. Not that autos are bad, just appear to be great for some and not so great for others. I just got my package in the mail of 5 FEMINIZED Master Kush. Can't wait till my ER's are done!

Sorry its been a few days fellow growers, ive had alot of shit going on! So I went to badage the wilted one with a small stick and tie it, but when i tried to tie it, it just snapped it was soo weak! : ((( BUT in other news, Im using all of my lights directly one my Pineapple Chunk, which is looking amazing! (which i think it does yall please tell me what yall think) Yesterday morning i notice 4 smal leaves coming in, and got a tad bit bigger that day. Today i go to check on her and she is getting BIG. The new leaves are coming in nice. AND today was watering day so i cant wait to see how big she grows tonight. She is 11 days old. Please tell me what yall think. !!! PEACE!

Hey buddy, i have my plants on 20/4 cause i was growing that easy ryder with it and it said on the site it grew better on that cycle. Do you think i should switch to maybe 18/6? but it looks good so far in my opinion for only being 11 days old, and the one that snapped was growing way faster than her!

 

[djlifeline]

I done 20/4 all way through with autos tbh. Make most of there short life. Some people 24/0 them. Personal preference.

 

[anotherdaymusic]

nice dude, I dont know about the light cycle, I hear a lot of mixed things, like your plant needs to sleep, and 24/0 doesnt allow certain things to happen as much, I dont know... wish I knew more and had more experience, Id say if its growing fine leave it, just to not change the cycle. But, you should ask someone on here that has tons of auto experience.

HELLO EVERYONE, I HAVE GREAT NEWS WITH THIS UPDATE! So today I checked on my Barney's Farm Pineapple Chunk and she is looking amazing!!! Today she is 12 days old and is growing great! Today was watering day and i used Bio-Grow liquid fertilizer from Holand (which is pictured) on it. My buddy is using is it and his plant is BOOMING! So I can't wait to see how much she grows tonight!! I also upgraded my fan(pictured also) so now I have ZERO problems/worries of heat! I have it in the back corner blowing on my plant and pushing the hot air to my exhaust fan. And it was on sell at walmart for only 9 bucks!! Well fellow growers give me your input on what you think, how she looks, suggestions, etc. PEACE

I would say your plant looks good but stretched. Move lights closer and try and bury the stem a bit more with some soil or it will fall over at a later date. Also what soil you using? I probably wouldn't be using any nutes just yet. Seems very early and there's no signs of defficiancy.

 

[SwampDank]

I'm using osmocote soil. I stretched it in the beginning and added soil. The lights are 2 inches above the top. It just looks bigger in the picture. I took them on my iPhone. She already has nodes in her armpits and I can see 4 more smaller leaves coming in.

 

[djlifeline]

Arrr ok if its a case it just looks worse in the picture then it is then no problem. I personally still wouldnt be using nutes this early tbh as probably still enough in your soil and could lead to problems. I don't start nutes until at least I see the branches alternate instead of just growing directly opposite. Just my 2p worth.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Looking good, but no need for nutes this early since your in soil with enough for 2-3 weeks. Less is more.

OK everyone please look at my top leaves in the pic posted. They are a diff color green than the two first leaves. Is this ok? or is this a problem??? Please let me know!!! THANKS!! PEACE

Not sure if that could be the beginning of nute brun, I wouldnt use any nutrients at all, just straight water for the next couple weeks. Maybe a flush would be good if its worse in the AM.

On the flipside, my diesel rider is showing about 6 hairs now, finally smelling dank It only has about twice the amount of leaves than yours and thats it! hahaha, I am happier than a fat kid at a candy convention...

whens the last time you gave any nutrients?

Thats whats up!!! keep it coming brotha! and I added the nutes yesterday, he leaves started to look like that when they started getting bigger, WAY before i added the nutes, my buddy who is growing the big devil I told you about said that she looks good and is okay. I also added some bonemeal and blood meal to the soil today. I really hope she is okay, but i guess ill find out in a few days! So you dont think she looks good? she had new leaves growing EVERYWHERE and she is only 13 days from potted the germinated seed.

 

[anotherdaymusic]

Dude honeslty, it looks badass. I wouldnt even consider it nute burn yet. I showed my buddy, who is as new as me and said the same thing as me. But were still pretty new to indoor. The only thing I can think of is maybe the soil has too much nutes in it. What type of soil did you use again?

I just thought of something else, have you been balancing your water to about 6.5? If not, this could be an issue. If your water balance is off, if makes it hard or impossible to even absorb any nutrients.
