Well shoot. So much for that 55-60 days that Seedsman promised.

This short little auto has been growing for 11 weeks in organic soil under a spider farmer 2000. She looks beautiful... just taking her sweet time to wrap up her grow! Any idea on how much longer I should wait? Pardon the pictures, the are pictures of the back of my camera.

That's good to know. I've read so many good things about worm castings... I couldn't imagine them causing problems!

Sounds like a plan. I suppose I figured that the plants would be fine until they were bigger without the feed. I'm still confused by the brown leaf tips, but I go ahead and get them fed this next time! Thanks!

We have a lot of iron and manganese. We had to get a whole house filter and water softener to save our appliances! It was pretty rough when we first put the well in. Obviously, I'm watering straight from the well.. no softened or filtered water for them.

Well that's good to hear. What would you thoughts be on still cutting it with about 50% RO water to bring the PH down. When I test it on my own, it's about 7.5. Also, I have purchased Nature's Living Auto Flower blend nutrients and plan on using them. So, I'm assuming just to go ahead with them...

About how much Cal Mag would you suggest?

Well I can certainly do that, too. And that makes sense! At this point, I'm moving my PH with Ro water rather than any PH up or down solution (although I do have it at my disposal).

I considered this, but I'm working out of two bags from two different sources.. so unless there's a problem at the Fox Farm source, it's probably my doing for this grow!

I have, yes. Here are the details: (I also have RO water at my disposal that I can cut it with to bring the mineral content and PH down, so that's an option if these numbers are too out of wack. ph 7 hardness 332 tds 250 calcium 84 magnesium 30 potassium 5 sulfate 53 sodium 7 chloride 19 copper...

I added worm castings, well.. because all of the videos and threads on forums add worm castings and tout it as being just amazing. I suppose I thought I was making the Happy from even better. So, next time no worm castings and just the perlite? For this grow, however, do you have any suggestions?

Ok, well, I can start mixing RO and well water to get the proper PH from here on out. I didn't account for the fact that perlite and worm castings would affect the PH. Thank you for pointing that out. Would you suggest just watering with a proper PH from here on out to correct?

Yes, it is new soil. And no, I haven't grown cannabis with well water, but I grow about 20 various house plants with it. So, perhaps that is the problem. Would you suggest that I cut it with RO water to bring the ph down and also dilute the minerals in the well water? And well, it looks dry...

They appear pale and hungry but how do you account for the brown tips? And at the very least, Happy Frog is supposed to carry seedlings nutrient wise for 3 weeks. These plants are very small and I can't imagine that they are using up all the nutrients that are available in the soil already.

I'm not ph'ing because happy frog is ph adjusted and you aren't supposed to ph. I can cut the well water with RO water that has a lower ph and bring it down though!
