your gonna get some masive buds off that baby ,is it about 2 foot tall
?the one that is in germ looks ok to i think u need more light tho its soposed to get 12 hours of light ,any ways welcome to the site
 
whatsup man!!!!! You have very good english. And a good idea for marijuana.
There are lots of good fertilizers right around you im sure. For starters most animals **** is vey high in nutrients, like ;chickens, goats, cows, sheep, bats, birds, rabbits etc. you could make your own wormfarm. if you live near the ocean seaweed and kelp are packed with nutrients. feathers act as a slow release nitrogen. paper ash contains about 5% phospherous and over 2% potash and can be used as a fertilizer but in small amounts as ph is very high, also inks are toxic. Different varieties of grounded up rock will very slowly beef up soil(over years) let me know if you want to know about those. Also a simple idea is to composte, throw all organic waste into a bin and let it rot! whatever you do use caution and never give up!

Hey bro just a few things on stuff i've picked up from what you said, now you said you live in peru, thats pretty close to the tropics so you must get pretty consistent outdoor weather conditions what is winter like compared to summer do you get mostly around 12 hours of light a day most days of the year?

Seeing as you get less sunlight you'll be better to grow more native sativa types that can grow happily that way from seed you'll also want to maximise the amount of light it gets the more light it gets the more energy it gets to grow.
 
in the winter the is no sunshine for 6 months. but it is usally never colder than50. i have 3 more months of good sun. thanks for the tip about sative( do they have fatter leaves or the skinner ones? Guess ill look that up) but in the winter i plan to use the little space that is attatched. im looking to improve that a little with some simple ideas?

checking my sprouts every hour and the progress is slow.
 
your sprout is comin along nicely, do you have drainage holes on the bottoms of your pots?
 
1 is fine for the siz pot its in as long as the water is draing out of the hole when u water ,,u are suposed to water till it comes out that hole in the battom then u no u watered enoff
 
heres a progress report.. this one has been sitting out on my patio during the day and then under a light at night... I want to improve from my grow that im bout to harvest in 4 weeks from another plant so i am wanting to know what simple things can I start to do now to improve my harvest in 3 months? supplies are limited where i am and buying from the internet isnt possible for a couple of months. There is a few more sprouts growing of the same size so i can experiment. what basic things can a pothead do to increase his results? thanks guys and gals.

i dont have to work till monday so i got some free time to do nothing. going to go buy some better soil today cause what i got is to much like dry woodchips or something. i heard that seedweed is good for the soil so im gonna throw some of that in there to. got several plants so if 1 or 2 dies it no big deal. plus i got more seeds.

Nice,but stretchy.Get them into the sun more if you can,or wack em under a few fluro's over night.

I would also repott one of those sprouts into its own pot.

Good advice, they are not getting enough light, i would just keep them under floro bulbs for now.

your balcony is not enough.
 
some progress realized my plants were in a trash soil i recently changed so i hope to see these improve cheers guys.. you will see them improve if you guys give me some input.... what fert is recomended for veg 20-20-20 or something else? just experimenting
