is she overwatered?

[untamed]

bagseed grow, 3 pots, 2 are good, 1 is a little "how you doing?"

Here are the first 2, top one looks the best, 2nd one is so so (sorry about the quality, all I got is a camera phone at the moment):





Here is the one I'm worried about:

The soil does look quite wet to me, you should add some perlite to your soil for your final pots to help with drainage whilst your in heavy veg and flowering, good luck finding a female :smile:

hey thanks for the reply.

yeh, I will def add some perlite to the mix when repotting. This soil I'm using is plain jane propogation mix with no added ferts.

I'm really digging the 'soiless mixes' and considering transplanting them to an organic solution pretty soon.

so do you think its only an over water prob? I hope so!

apart from a little wet compost and the runt they look great, I'd carry on growing the runt if you have space for it, you never know.. it might turn out to be your only female!

hahaaa please dont jinx me I got 2 seeds in water waiting to crack getting ready to replace it.

heres an update of one of the good plants from this evening:

Sorry, wasn't thinking... I grow clones, I'm sure you'll find at least 1 female that you could take cuttings from.

I can see an increase in leaf width just since yesterday!

Best get back to decorating, it won't do it itself

 

[untamed]

there is a big leaf width increase and the plant is a little taller.. these are under 2 foot T8's and are loving it.. 8 days old today.

your plants look fine..one runt,A little droopy but heathy...I agree with the earlier post add perlite..Helps drainage and gets air to the roots..Poor drainage and lack of air lead to root rot..That seed starter mix holds alot of water, not much air...I would transplant into a growing mix..Good Luck...mitsu

when u transplant, make sure and add a bit of vermiculite as well. I tought myself how to grow with bagseeds before I delved into knoiwn genetics, and from my experience, 1 cup vermiculite to every 5 cups of potting soil has done wonders for me. Good looking plants though! I like the blue hue from the T8's...blue light is da bomb. I have grown and flowered fully under metal halides, and it took 9.5 weeks of flowering, but the bud was sooo rediculous dank, all from a bagseed from some really good middies. Happy growin!

they are progressing well

EDIT: I am considering ripping the runt and replacing it with 2 new pots/seeds to get 4 good babies.

Vermiculite retains water, if you are having a problem with drainage already that's the last thing you want to be adding to your 'new' mix imho.. compost and a little perlite will work wonders, you should be able to tell how much you need to add by the texture while your mixing it, add a little at a time as you don't want to over do it as you are adding basically nothing of nutritional value to your compost.. ideally you want it to form a lump but break apart easily at the same time, you should keep the runt going if you have room for it, worst case scenario is it being a male, next best you should get a smoke off it.
