I planted 3 Jack Herer feminized autos on pete pellets in the dark June 1st. The seeds all sprouted June 4th. I put the seedlings in Jiffy pea pots with Foxfire mix. 2 weeks later transplanted entire pot into same Foxfire soil mix in plastic 3 gallon pots with real good drainage in the bottom. I did remove some of the peat pot carefully and all soil and roots held together nicely. I grew them in the bathtub with a big window and six LED strip lights on blue. Then I added another couple of clamp lights with grow bulbs. They did okay and then started budding before they had a lot of height or leaf growth. They were maybe two feet. I switched to red light . They were growing very slowly at 6 weeks . Someone suggested too much light. Cut the light back to 12 and 12 as it had been about 6 and 18.
I never water too much and I'm pretty careful with the Foxfire nutrients. I only fed them a fourth of the recommendation on the can which was Foxfire Big Bloom earthworm castings with bat guano. When very early they they started to bud , (before they were even 7 weeks old ) I gave them a little Open Sesame for bud development. I won't go into the ingredients in as many of you are probably already familiar and it can easily be looked up.
Well, they just didn't look all that great after 2 months which was the prescribed length of time from planting to harvest. Teeny tiny buds with lots of hairs on them already so I finally said Back To Nature. Even though last year's plants got butritis out there in the wild of my back deck. It was too much water and rain in that case.
Anyway after I moved the trio outside last week when they were 9 or 10 weeks old. They seem to be doing quite a bit better. But still not a whole lot of bud development.
I think I should have used some light fingered LST. The buds look very undeveloped to me. I see undeveloped calyx's underneath the buds. Any suggestions? Even damning comments will be welcome. I'm a a new flu isolation grower who started in 2020. The first pick is at about 2 weeks the rest of the pictures are current which is a little more than 10 weeks. Thanks in advance for any input or suggestions.
