1st grow ever

[M.R. Woods]

Hey guys, total newb here. Excited to join the group. 1st grow: Auto Lemon Haze from MSNL. OF/perlite mix(70/30), 300 watt LED(budget amazon version). Everything about this grow is extremely tight budget. Making the best out of what I got. Day 16 from seed. Thoughts? Any tips or help is greatly appreciated.

Correction: 600 watt full spectrum LED

Also, I can’t afford any nutes right now. I should be good for the first few weeks with OF right? I did get my hands on a couple packets of Jobe’s Organics Vegetable and Tomato granular plant food. 2-5-3 not sure if I’d be better with or without it. If I am better off with, how the hell do I go about using it.

I know I could get a small amount of bloom nutes for pretty cheap, I just don’t think I’ll be able to swing it this grow.

Sorry,no experience with nutes other then what i use but...Nice looking 16 days plants! Good start!

what size pot ya got? guessing it atleast 3 gallons,I would recommend to feed juuust prior to the end of veg.why?well its granular Im guessing..?..so its going to have to be turned lightly into the soil for best performance,.and it will need time to break down.so hopefully by the time N is fading and flower is building,it will start releasing a bit.look at alaskan fish 5-1-1 and?or 0-10-10 bottled feeds.those are decently cheap, and will accompany that pretty well altered.hopefully your soil preforms well.happy harvesting bud.

OH, and 3 gallons Id say around 1 nice TBspn.or even upwards or 2 depending on size of strain. 5 gallon start at 2 TBspns unless shes a wee thing and sprinkle around the middle of the pot and turn in as best ya can. keep moist if ya can.

Plant appears very healthy at this point. OF is a bit hot for seedlings but you've avoided burning your plant so far. With 3 gal pot, there's a lot of built in nutes to be consumed before needing anything so I'm one who says hold off with anything but watering.....get this grow under your belt and you'll learn less is more.
Using bb light mix, I grow maters among my cannabis and sometimes use granular ferts such as Jobes, mg etc but always dissolve the product before adding to the plant. AND....start with 1/4 strength.
