Hi guys, I am quite New to this site and very much a noob at growing. I have previously posted a pic of my last grow which turned out to be disastrous...as it turned out to be males. My second grow were females from bagseed as a test grow and it grew ok-ish but strain was very weak.
I have now started another setup using cfl lights and an oscillating fan in my grow box using mushroom Compost at ph6.7 along with vermiculight, perlite and peatmos.
1 pure sativa ( South African unknown genetics ), 1 indica/sativa ( South African unknown genetics ) 1 pure India ( South African unknown genetics )

The indica/sativa and pure sativa are about 5 weeks old. (Trained)

The pure Indica in the left corner is about 2 weeks old.

Hi Chemphlegm, thanks for the reply. I am from South Africa and I am growing in S.A lol. I live in Cape Town.
Where do I get organic crumbles and what is it's purpose in terms of feeding? Also, I fed them yesterday so I doubt they are hungry/ thirsty. I fed them water every 2-3rd day and will start the flowring in the week. I will be using biobloom for the flowerig phase.

Sorry for all the dumb questions lol. I just checked it online. I think the ratio will be too high in N for the flowering as I will be using biobloom which has a nice amount of Nitrogen.

More updated pics 2 Jan 2017
This indica/sativa grew a split stem naturally as if was topped. I decided to train it some more and to transplant the Indica.
The sativa has been moved to outdoors.20170102_131310.jpg 20170102_131317.jpg 20170102_131336.jpg 20170102_144423.jpg 20170102_144432.jpg

I put the Sativa outside. How's it looking so far? I hope she does not hermie due to initial growth under cfl and now moved outdoors.20170103_141012.jpg 20170103_140941.jpg 20170107_101719.jpg 20170107_101753.jpg

These two are doing nicely indoors under the cfl. The small one also turned female and has a super dank smell. Like super cheese or lavender 20170104_094955.jpg 20170107_102301.jpg 20170107_102308.jpg 20170107_102316.jpg

check google, amazon, internet for all of your fertilizer needs. you could check local garden stores.
I grow organic, you would benefit from it too. any organic fertilizers will do in a pinch. looks good too!

Thanks for the info Chemphlegm. What is your opinion on mushroom Compost? It seems to be working great for myself and a couple of friends growing canabis and veggies. Ph of the compost is 6.7

dont matter really as long as its working for you. I know of people using urine to fertilize all the way through, they're happy, all that matters. feed the soil, plants know just what to do. dont panic grow organic

(trim the foliage under your screen to increase your screen. Weave those meristems in and out of the screen until full then flower, keep up the pics....love it!

Thanks For the reply and advice bud. Unfortunately I have already started flowering but it's cool as I have the Sativa outside as well as a clone of Skunk#1 which I got from a buddy of mine. I will try and take pics and post soon.

Week 2 of flowering. I think i might have a Nitrogen deficiency due to lots of lower leaves turning yellow. Other than that I think they sort of look ok. I will post pics later today of the sativa outside and the skunk#1 clone.

Dude......Its not legal to grow cannabis in South Africa...... (well not yet)
Would I be growing indoors when I could be growing outdoors?
However, I do have a Sativa outside in the greenhouse box along with a skunk#1 as per the pictures above.... The Skunk#1 I will bring inside before the smell becomes overwhelming.
