LED dimmed to 25%

[Fish scale]

The leaves are pointing upwards since I turned up my LED to 50% so I can only take that as a good sign?

 

[Daino]

wtf wow

 

[medidedicated]

Nah. I grew 6' plants on my clones that got out of control in half gallon pots. I think thats 1.5liters or soView attachment 5307381

Fed plain water and dry back daily in 2/3rds the size of those pots? That was the reason for my first thread ever, here on RIU. Stunted, dying seedlings of 3 weeks in half gallons. I thought Fish Scale was new and just starting out because of that.

Those are some stretched bitches

The only reason I water with plain water is because the coco is precharged with nutrients, it already has slow release nutrients added to the coco and perlite. Usually you would add liquid nutrients to your plain water but since mine is precharged with nutrients I don't need to feed for a while, but I'm not sure on how long it takes to use up all the nutrients that is added to the coco. half gallon pots sounds pretty big for a 3 week old plant but I don't see why it wouldn't work. I've been growing in coco now for at least 10 years.

As stated, I have hard time believing those nutes would hold up for more than a few days. Coco flushes quick.

No. They were always fed. No plain water. I was just saying that the pot size isn't quite as crucial with coco. The fight becomes keeping them fed. It was every morning and before bed at the minimum. I tried to feed them as soon as I got home from work as well. I feel like they ate all the coco because they were solid root balls. Well, root cubes. Haha

Yeah I guess you are right. I have never used this brand before so I'm not sure on how long the coco holds onto the nutrients, apparently it's slow release nutrients, but I could start feeding them again and see how they get on, I want to make sure that the light at 50% doesn't fuck them up first so I will probably wait a few days before I try feeding them again.

That's insane dude, I've never seen a root mass like that before.

 

[Daino]

Hahaha there's no soil left it's all root

 

[TCH]

That's insane dude, I've never seen a root mass like that before.

Trust the coco and try to drown those bitches, all while completely miscalculating time and space on your grow. Then keep them in the half gallon pots to keep them small (yeah right) while you try to figure out what the hell you're gonna do with em. Haha

Either of you ever trying growing a strain called nova og?? Its a fem photoperiod

Nah dude it sounds like a nice strain though

 

[Daino]

Omfg m8 I grew it on my last run under hos in my other room that strain isn't far off 35 percent thc it's one of the world's strongest strains it isn't a couch lock it's a lock the fucking doors and get to bed strain too strong

I don't go by THC percentage. I find that lower THC percentage strains with more Terps get me more high.

 

[Daino]

I have never tried a strain this strong before I'm actually afraid to smoke it again it's not right

What I don’t understand is why they expect you to do that and not tell you how long its good for. I just learned not to water soil to too much runoff as it will flush the nutes out before 30 days so I would think it is similar. I just now get what your asking. I don’t know the answer haha, just basic coco use with nutes and sterilizer nothing more.

Tbh I haven’t looked far into hybrid coco/soil style growing, I heard of it but that is all.

Yea I meant for 3 weeks old too if you wanted a bigger plant but I do notice dramatic difference in plant size in first 30-60 days with pot sizes like half gallon up to 3 gallons which was enough for a full size plant in a 3x3. Having veg time changes everything though. Nice roots holy cow haha.

I haven’t flowered any plants in under 1 gallon in coco but I see people grow little trees in 1.5 liter pots all the time. If I am correct a liter is a quarter gallon. I am doing a half gallon or quater gallon grow in dirt right now though, because I know how big plants can still get let alone in small spaces.

I am taking a break from coco but when I do it again soon I am considering smaller pots but wow 1 liter is insane.
