Re: First time grower, HELP
@DIY.Rik yes sir I'm from Canada. Listing Temps in f because there seem to be alot of people from the states and well, I guess cannabis only grows in Fahrenheit lol!. I'm in solos now, then into 2g, then 5, and finish in 7's or 10's i think.

Re: First time grower, HELP
I work with Metic Imperial of sorts all the time and always coverting numbers. You have the best organic produce available in Canada though, Gaia Green is a good amendment as far as I've seen and heard. 444 only hence your're repotting, would be plentyfu anyway, seedlings don't need much available nutrients. I suspect you are going to use a mix of amendments when repotting? Sorry I should have asked.
There is a good theory for repotting often, is that you can apply fungi directly to the roots when repotting. If growing autos I always go straight into the fimnal pot though. Photos I will repot once or twice.

Re: First time grower, HELP
Heat mats are a nightmare. Had a guy a while back using heat mats in winter. His roots only went 4" down and he couldn't figure out why. Took a while to figure out that it must have been because he was straight onto the mat

Re: First time grower, HELP
@Cam there is a few folks on You Tube from Canada using Gaia Green products. Mr Canuck is one, he's been mentioned in a thread here before on GR420. I got a few general idea from him and then gathered other information from on here and reading books.
As you're autos I would consider going straight into the final pot sooner rather than later. You can't re veg an auto, once they start flowering, any stress and repotting may stunt them a little.
More than one way to skin a cat though, everyone does things differently.

Re: First time grower, HELP
@DIY.Rik Thanks dude! The autos are in final pots (5 g), the photos are in solos for the minute. Just 2 days ago everything seems to have "changed" for lack of a better word. After being stagnant in growth since they came up they just started growing again, leaves doubles in size and stems started thickening more.DIY.Rik wrote: ↑Mon Oct 26, 2020 6:44 pm@Cam there is a few folks on You Tube from Canada using Gaia Green products.
