Bagseed grow

[Afghan Haze]

yeah i got like a good gram per plant chopped early from my corn dirt first harvest.... but it tasted pretty good for early bud seed to harvest outdoor from Jan sprout to April harvest i walked 6 miles down the road each way to carry back home a bucket of that dirt for free got about 5 or 6 grams from 5 plants in half gallons. this makes me want to invest in organic amendments/nutes and light/airy medium to mix with the plain dirt/make teas and see what i get... the 30% perlite one looks a lot better than the plain one.... if it doesn't work out i'll have pounds of nutes to mix with something better... slowly working my way to a good mix... idk.. just something to think about...

The older one was probably too picky.. showed tail in tapwater after 1 day i'm sure with correct ph/nutes all that she would be much better off.... The younger bigger one just hope its not a male... The other pots I have with the plain dirt the one with perlite is soft today after being watered yesterday, no chunks... The one with no perlite, I think I saw some sand around here so I'm going to add 30% sand when I find it and get it.

The older smaller plant was looking worse today so I killed it... the other one is growing better just hope its not male.

Oh man that really sucks! I liked that one lol. Why'd you kill it? Was it so far gone you couldn't do anything about it?

 

[Afghan Haze]

the first leaves were going bad at the tips and i could just tell it was going to be be real bad... this other one sprouted 2 days later and is doing much better.

 

[NoSocSlic]

You should've kept it going. It probably would've rebounded. Browning leaf tips are usually caused by heat stress. Is it getting too hot down south?

 

[Afghan Haze]

Yeah maybe but it was just not doing anything for like 4 days stuck... its been in the 90's... i mixed some miracle grow organic into a pot with plain dirt.. looks better than either one just by itself. the dirt was wet already so it didn't quit mix well, there's still clumps so tomorrow i'll do another pot with dry dirt and mg and then water it see how it turns out... about to drop some seeds in tap water that has been sitting out for a day.

I used a bobby pin to bend the main stem down to soil level. I have about 16 seeds I got out of strictly purple buds of this batch so I can't wait to get some new soil to grow them in...

 

[Afghan Haze]

Well I had 100 to spend on a grow a few days ago but now I only have 20 lol... I really needed some things ATM more than a good grow especially with my security concerns... i've decided to wait a while on buying dirt and nutes... I barely threw some smaller, lower grade seeds in water and going to put them in miracle grow fuck it... i have plenty seeds anyway for later... keep an eye out tho cause end of winter i should have some primo soil cooked... ha

 

[Afghan Haze]

One of the first leaves above the cotyledons is wilting away the other one still looks good tho.... really slow growth and i decided not to plant any more so its the only one. I'll post a pic when the 3rd set of leaves are out or the 4th week mark we'll see...... just hoping i get some smoke in the end...

Hey looking good man!

Most of us don’t have the extra time to start a grow over again because some indeterminable factor sank our battleship halfway into the game. Did you kill your plant by overfertilizing? Overwatering? Not enough light? Or were those seeds just bummers? I’m not affiliated with any seed banks/distributors, but I do know that if your seeds don’t sprout, most will send you a replacement. And with a bit of know-how, you can tailor your grow to the strain of cannabis you choose, and will produce some righteous buds.

that last plant i killed was bagseed and just fell behind the younger plant i got going now. I don't have all that much experience but I didn't think it was going to bounce back like I hoped but oh well... i don't have any nutes to give just plain water....

 

[NoSocSlic]

You'll get it done man. Honestly you should stop throwing out plants though. I mean hell, a little bit of free bud is better than buying crap off the street. That's why I started growing my own in the first place. I have seen some tiny pathetic plants flower and give up some bud.

My friend was having issues with his grow because of high heat and crappy dirt but I told him to just flower it anyway. He did and now, 9 weeks later he's got 2 plants with about 3 grams each sitting on them and they smell like some skunky dank lol. He's doing his grow inside of a toolbox with 3 cfls plugged into a power strip. Weed will do its thing almost anywhere.

I think you should find a cabinet, get a light timer, and start flowering some plants! I know it's got to get frustrating growing but not getting any bud. The one you have going looks like its pretty healthy. Let that one go whether it is doing good or not, and in the end as long as it is female you'll have some weed to smoke, and it'll be better than anything you buy with seeds in it.

Keep growing and keep learning, have fun and keep posting your pictures. =P

i gave it half a gallon of water from a local irrigation canal.. snapping turtles and fish in there... its hard to put $30 aside for soil and nutes for a new grow when i got so many other things i need to grow right... and border security right now sucks idk if you've seen the news.... i know i need to move indoors... friday i'll be $25 short for a good light i want, as of now... i'll see what i can do man....

 

[NoSocSlic]

Ehh, you really don't have to spend a lot. $20 - $25 can get you 4 cfl's, a light timer, a power strip, and 4 lamp socket adapters, and you can get it all at walmart lol. It looks like this when you're done.



You can make a cabinet or use an old one. I've seen people use rubbermaids, trash cans, tool boxes.... All kinds of stuff you can make into a grow box. I found a lot of my materials also, or used things around the house. You can also just set it up in a closet like me =P
