First ever grow

[Jangs4124]

Hey so I started my first every grow back on September 27th, I popped 3 Fat Billy’s x Wilson, and 1 northern lights 5 x Wilson both bred by Masonic Smoker. My medium is coco and perlite, currently getting fed 3 times a day, at 1000 EC, just bumped up today from 700, PH Is 6.1-6.3, light is Vipar spectra p2500, at 60%, I recently had it at 100% but suspected light burn starting so I bumped down to 60%, temp is 78 during day 74/75 at night and 60% humidity steady, running an AC infinity 4 in exhaust, in a mars hydro 2x2, ( getting a 4 x 4 soon),
My question is, do you see any flaws? Or tips you could give me or any things from a first glance you notice.

Wrap the clear cups in newspaper or something else so the roots aren't getting light. Roots don't like it. Congrats on the grow.

Bit young for 1000 ec there I think . You may start to run into bother at some point , canny strong that for a mature plant .

I’ll dilute it down to 800 then? And what do u mean w your last sentence

 

[Trickyticky]

Hahaha . U said 1000ec ,
Think ya ment 1000ppm , which is roughly 500ppm .
Aya using ppm meter OR ec meter ?

 

[Jangs4124]

My meter has both but yeah I said EC not ppm

But yeah right now it’s 470 PPM, is that good or too low

 

[Trickyticky]

Yeh maybe a touch low , maybe 500-600 ppm and keep eye on tip ends and colour of old and new growth.

 

[Jangs4124]

Gotcha I’ll bump it up tomorrow to 600 thank you, I noticed a little discoloration in the tip of one of the northern lights new growth today but it’s very slight and I’d say a pale ish color

 

[Trickyticky]

Are you adding cal/mag ??
If not maybe get some , use as and when needed

Yes I’m using cal/mag, silica, veg plus bloom, And Humic acid

 

[Trickyticky]

Why the bloom ? Ya not in flower yet are ya

 

[Jangs4124]

It’s veg plus bloom are you not familiar with it, it’s a brand. It’s just an NPK

 

[Trickyticky]
