Slow growth? (something feels wrong)

The biocanna nutrients are made for soil, not for hydro. Your plants can't absorp the nutrient like the could when you give hydro nutrients.

Like cannasutraorganics said, bio nutrients block oxygen in your plant water. Thats why your leaves looks like that on the pictures in post #10.
Overwatering is nothing than an oxygen shortage.

Awesome! thank you :)



I don't really understand what that means, what isn't a soil or soil-less medium? Can you give an example? and you mean its wrong to use Biocanna for hydro?

Thank's for the input :)

Coco and rock wool don't decompose like soil or the elements that breakdown to become soil. Organic nutes depend on this decomposition for health and vigor. Also to releas nutes. In alternative growing you use salt based and synthetic nutes that don't depend on decomp to be healthy.
This is a oversimplification, but should Give you info you haven't gotten yet. I grow with biocanna and love it

And don't let the non organic boys tell you hydro outgrows organic. Deep water can, but rarely does. I get 3+ dried and cured per 1000 watt in a 25 sqft grow space.

Oh really? well shit, that's a big problem.. It's really confusing tho. Here is the big picture. You say it blocks out oxygen, do you think this can change over time? why i am asking is just just because these plants are growing very well right now. And the Biocanna mixed in the water tank has been "mixed" together for almost 2 weeks, im thinking that it maybe changes over time. Because it is working right now.. i don't know what will happen but right now it works, hydro and all. Also i have filled my top tank where the roots are with some kind of clay pellets, maybe these are helping those plants out with oxygen? i'm just brainstorming. It's strange.

Thanks for the info, much appreciated!

Are you setting your ppm. What other nutes are you using? If you haven't added more to the tank in two weeks, that's why....

Yes, got around 1.2 EC

I had Biocanna vega
Rhizotonic
Cannazym

Now they are in flowing state (changed it yesterday)

Biocanna Flores
Bioboost
+ 10-15 Liters of the old mix

New problem!

One of the plants looks like this:

Its been fertalized. Does this mean it can make the other female grow seeds aswell?

Need answer!
