got give some seed of unknown strain except outdoor and the person liked the smoke.
planted 4 seeds and 2 came up

well heres the pics i think they both maybe female hopeful dont turn out to be herm

lightings not that great about 530lm ft2 if i remember correctly and thats on your average day.

soil is just compost and a bit of peat on the top. with nitrophoska mixed in and been feeding baby bio and seasol. But mainly just water straight from hose.

now that they are showing sex should i switch nutes to other stuff witch is NPK 4-14-10 or ???

well heres a a couple of pics


they were gettin to big so are getting bent so light can reach the hole side of the plant.

for odour control i have a bucket filled with febeze and half a bottle of nilodour oil then topped off with water (i also soaked some cotton balls in undiluted solution and spread these around the room.(no power source)

any ideas to help would be great. please keep negative constructive i am aware that this is far from ideal setup as this is my first grow(ever) and was something i didn't even think would get this far.


Thanks Abecsta

I don't really see any pre flowers on mine until early february where I am but it might be because of your lower light levels..
I don't see how it can be bad at all to start feeding a flower fert tho so i say go for it
You could use 50/50 veg and boom nutes until you got bud sites all over the place then switch to just bloom nutes when you are properly into flowering

this sounds like a good idea just have to remember to dial it down yea? so i don't burn my plants. ill just mix some worm juice in since i got told seaweed style nutes cant give it a taste.

is 4 14 10 a good ratio or should i look for some thing else any recommendations (also sorry for the spelling)

Yea just half strength of veg and half stength of bloom that will essentially make a full strength feeding lol..
That ratio is fine I really dont care myself as long as its high in N for veg and high in P for bloom. I have used all sorts like 10 3 7 and 10 10 2 for veg. Also used 1 9 1 and 0 3 1 for bloom nutes but along with other additive nutrients etc.. your ratio is probably the best for bloom because its well balanced so you wont get any defficiencies with that

be careful about tying those branches too tightly as the plants continues to grow and swell the ropes can pinch the branches and cause damage even may cause em to break eventually

If you have the ability to get some i like to use zip ties...you put em around the branch not too tightly then you can tie stings off the zip tie to hold your plant up or down
