Yeah thats what I did man, I am just stoned watching the pot calmly pondering. 5 ec cannot be ok, I should go on flushing right? But will the ec creep back up by itself? Hmmm, much to ponder, too little of my iq capacity functioning right now to process them.
I'd go to bed I think your flushed enough ha
no worries. Is your soil not absorbing any water at all? If that’s the case maybe try submerging your pot for an extended time under water? I’m wondering what the soil pH is too. You can probably start bumping up the dose as well. It’s organic, so you have way less of a chance of burning. You can use any straw just boil it for ten minutes to get rid of any pests. As far as worms like at least 30? If you have access to a pH kit take a reading of your soil.5 weeks old I think haha dont judge me I am a stoner I sometimes lose track of things.
They were germinated in jiffy things for a week, and the last 4 weeks were in those pots.
If I see it wilt, if the pot is light and the tip if my finger is dryish I water. Approx every 3 days until juust a little runoff.
Nope, equal parts of plagron bat mix, royalmix and lightmix. No added anything. Only fed bottle organic nutrients a little bit in the past. Started feeding 1/3 dose last week again.
I live in a country where weed is illegal and only a few grow shops operate and they do not have many options.

Those pots are 20 liters (5.2 gals). I will transplant into bigger final fabric pots, 10 gal tomorrow. I found somewhere who makes vermicompost and will go buy fresh. As you can see the pots right now are not full, I approximate the total volume of soil in 4 pots is 75 liters. I have another 75 liters of those 3 soil bags sitting there. As I will transplant into 4x 40 liter pots, I will need 150 ish liters. Instead of putting in the rest of those bagged soils I am thinking of = 75 existing mix in pots + 30 liter vermicompost + 40 liters compost. Is that good or should I put in some of the soils and less of the compost and vermicompost? I can also buy worms there so I will put some in the pots. How many whould I introduce into 10 gal pots? I will try and find some barley straw for mulch. Is there any process I can put the straw through that will recude the chance of introducing pests with it, is that even a problem?
Now, since I am a noob I am more prone to overwater rather than underwater so I prefer fabric pots but I must say the soil right now, especially the rootball are in the middle is so tight and hydrophobic when I water. How can I fix that?
By the looks of it your under led lights... in that case your too cold... 26c day and 21c night. Otherwise your not getting the transportation you need.
Very interesting. Could you give me a few more keywords about this topic so I can go google why plants under leds need higher temps so that I can learn and satisfy my curiosity? Will increase temps right away.
I have definitely grown at 78 and under with LED’s and they’ve grown fine. I think 80f is preferred, but I don’t think it’s causing the problem
I only transplanted one pot to the new bigger pot with worm castings+bagged soil mix added on. The new one was flushed extensively because I seem to have used wayy too much worm castings with way too little aeration (which was in the bagged soil). The EC was over 10 and I flushed a lot and at the end it was 5 when I stopped. The water goes down slowly but ultimately does not pool. The thing is I did it 60 hours ago and even the top of the soil is still very moist and the soil contracted, cracked.
Because the runoff was +10 EC, I thought high slat content burned and killed the roots?
Yeah, was a bit too high and stupid. I will add the perlite and coco. Will that suffice? I added no peat moss since I could not get my hands on some right now.
Alright, will take it out asap.
Thats a good start,hasnt been there long no harm.scrape off as much as you can of the wet goo. put it back into the pot and cover so no light can get in.Plant needs to breathe for a bit.
