Basically I'm taking this as new hobby. I don't smoke but since I was 16 that I wanted to embrace a grow project. 18 years later, decided to get my hands to the work, bearing in mind that it should be as simple as possible.
Ordered 3 easy bud seeds, germinated all 3, only 2 survived on the soil, mostly because of my technique. For me, it's all about learning so I did some experiences. 3 different soils, 3 different planting techniques and this is the result so far. The one that died, was due muddy soil, so she drown. No oxygen.
Started this project with a simple indoor greenhouse, 160x40x60cm size, 2 daylight lamps 11 watts, 6300 kelvin and roughly 700 lumen each, 1 usb cooling fan. Distance from the lamps to the seeds +20 centimetres, which you can see on day 3, we had a lot of stretching (video). Nevertheless, started to see some life!!!
Decided to take the project more seriously. We are now on the day 4, with a new setup. Adequate soil, carefully buried both plants in bigger vases and new lights.
4 cfl lamps, 1297 lumen, 97 watts and 6300 kelvin. I was about to buy the cfl pure light lamp 125 watts but found these cfl's at leroy merlin. I wanted to keep this low budget/experimental project as much as possible, therefore after doing some calculations I found that with these 4 lamps I would roughly get the same lumens and watts I would get with the pure light lamp.
Happy Growing.
Yellow spot found today. Only one spot in one leaf.
Shoud I prune the whole leaf or wait a few more days to see if she recovers? It is a main leaf though.
Any help is much appreciated.
Looks to be a very small blemish quite possibly from a drop of water on ur leaves during light hours. Either way if isolated to the one spot nothing to worry about. Definitely dont need to remove the leaf. But I would monitor the leaf and plant for new or worsening symptoms. Some times leaving the deficiency or problematic leaves on the plant helps to identify if u have ailed the plant. Or more action is required.
