Love the baby pics

papowerbud · 01-22-2011, 04:45 PM

Thanks everyone, I am hoping I have more babies soon! Do the sprouts look healthy so far? One is curling inward (ill try and get a pic if it's still like that when I check again), would this probably be due to excessive heat stress or drying. I moistened the soil as I thought that would be the main reason that the one plants cotyledons would shrivel towards one another and the rest seem ok.

Water and heat, but not too much water. When weed is under heat stress, the edges of the leaf curl up so it can transpire heat more effectively. Then, the leaves start getting crispy if you let it go too long. Drooping is a sign of overwatering, watch for it.

7 of the 9 sprouted and 6 of them are healthy. The one seedling died and just didnt seem to be of the same genetics almost it was weak and didnt make it unfortunately. The other two I most likely put two deep, and in all honest I am happy that 6 came up.

Two were giving me issues and weren't growing as well as the others. I threw a humidifier in my tent and pumped it up to 60% humidity and now they are right back so I have 6 healthy seedlings!

I think I am going to germ a few Hindu kush next and put those in this time using the paper towel method, I've had them in a cup of water now for a few hours. Thanks for all the input I appreciate it and look forward to sharing the journey(s) ahead!

Looking great.

Do you have a bit of air movement in there? They seem sturdy anyway.

papowerbud · 01-27-2011, 07:25 AM

Yes I have a small fan thats not doing much in the corner, and in the other corner I have a larger oscillating standing fan that I have pointing downward. Should there be more? The oscillating fan is your standard white, oscillating fan I though that would be enough for strengthening the stems.

farmergiles · 01-27-2011, 07:29 AM

That sounds perfect- don't point any fans straight at them until they get a bit bigger, they only need a gentle breeze atm.

SmokeaJoint · 01-27-2011, 09:52 AM

At this time you might consider LST or other training techniques. In another few days they might be big enough to start using some.

farmergiles · 01-27-2011, 01:08 PM

Carry on like this for a while imo. They look like they're doing just fine.

stoneric · 01-27-2011, 01:33 PM

I'd hold off on the LST for awhile. I usually wait until they've had a solid week in veg which means around 3 weeks from sprout. Nothing is etced in stone of course.

papowerbud · 02-02-2011, 04:27 PM

week 3

papowerbud · 02-02-2011, 04:30 PM

week 3 continued

papowerbud · 02-02-2011, 04:35 PM

and the last 2...What is typically the most beneficial training method on autoflowering plants? LST, LST/FIM?? I wouldn't mind trying and have read but, I just dont know how well these would apply to the autoflowering strains compared to a regular feminized plant.

LostanConfussed · 02-07-2011, 03:41 PM

Nice plants good job!!!

Dandaweedman · 02-07-2011, 03:58 PM

Love the baby pics. Looking good.
I'm not sure you need to low stress train autos. Don't they just turn into 16" tall bud-sicles?

SmokeaJoint · 02-07-2011, 05:52 PM

A 16'' BudSicle? They sure don't have those at MY town's ice cream store!

Well, if it goes from a sprout to a solid mass of cola, fuck LST.

Sprouts are looking damn happy, keep it up.
