M.I.L.K (man I love Kush) : Or Playing With Moms!

Ok, finally the promised photo update, @missiles you asked to be tagged I think, so here it is.
13 days after breaking soil :

The Banana Kush :


The first Lemon Kush :


And the second one :


I have been using this bottle with only plain water to mist the soil and the plants:

So my questions of the day :
How long should I keep the domes over the babies?
If I have to keep them longer, I will need bigger bottles… the leaves are brushing against the sides…
@hoppiefrog, I am using Pro-mix like you I believe, when should I start feeding the babies (AN Grow, Micro, Bloom) do you think?
And when feeding the babies : foliar sprays (with that bottle) or soil feeding?
Keep in mind people that my conditions are far from ideal… There’s still bugs in my tent so my babies are going nowhere near the good lights for now.And I don’t have a heat mat (yet).

As usual, any comments and/or advices is more than welcomed!!
Have a great day fellow cannabis aficionados!!! :face_with_monocle:

I’d keep them under a dome until they’re 6" tall at the minimum. They need a lot of TLC when they’re young. They can be in 100% humidity working their way down to 60% as they get to their veg size. I try to drop about 5% per week to keep the girls comfortable.

The plants need a weak nutrient solution as soon as they get their first true leaves. It can be foliar or soil fed. Seaweed is your friend at this stage.

So something like this in my spray bottle would do the trick? :

They should grow out of they funkiness. I had a couple babies that had weird leaves like that. If you need to get a 2 liter bottle and cut the bottom off to make a dome. Or anything that will fit and still let them get light.

That was my plan, bigger domes for now. But the only problem is I don’t drink soft drinks…I hope I don’t drown with all the water I’ll have to drink to get those bottles today… :wink:

I like ILGM, but this is the only forum I participate in. It’s the first place I really felt welcome and at home, a big thanks to @missiles and her welcoming gifs she uses. I know there’s loads of information out there, but this is my first go to place if I have questions. I don’t feel judged here and I have yet to have a bad interaction with anybody.
But, that being said, I appreciate the invite! :wink:

I wouldn’t spray the plants that small with anything. Try spraying dome instead. When they start vegging u can spray beneficials weekly in veg. Teas are great sprays.

Look up reverse foliar feeding. It can be a useful tool if u over feed

You would be surprised how many people on here are from there, but I understand, it’s the same reason I was so nervous about joining here, but I’m glad I did, not only do I get to spend more time with my forum family but I get to make new ones as well.

I use Epsom salt from Walmart or any local store if you only need a few pounds.
