Time to transplant.
No need to check the pH of your run off........just make sure it's correct when going in.

 

[Rico1982]

O ok...had me scared bc Im having an iron deficiency..I put In Ph 6 n the runoff kept dropping to 4ph to 5ph....I was thinking I might need to transplant...just flushed em n fed em n runoff ph dropped to 4.5 to 5...gonna let em dry out a Lil bit the. Transplant Into 3 gal fabric pots.

Hopefully that helps

 

[MickFoster]

Don't let them dry too much.......you never want coco to dry........it should always be saturated.
Feed daily to substantial run off.
Never plain water and never let it dry.
Good luck.

 

[Rico1982]

O ok..
I was feeding every 2 days...gonna transplant n feed daily to 30% runoff

 

[MickFoster]

These are 14 days from sprout and fed daily starting around day 3 from sprout.

 

[Rico1982]

Wow..those look great...gonna follow along with what u r doing...

 

[Rico1982]

@MickFoster R u using full strength nutes daily?

 

[MickFoster]

@MickFoster R u using full strength nutes daily?

No.........frequent feedings in coco doesn't require full strength nutes because you're replenishing them daily.
I start with an EC around 0.6 or 300 ppm's and increase to 1.2 EC or 600 ppm's as the plant grows.

I imagine those roots are starting to circle the bottom of those cups. I'd cut a diamond or two out of the bottom and see.

 

[Rico1982]

Yeah I can c roots starting to stick out the holes In the bottom of the cups
Gonna transplant n feed ..an ph perfect coco sensi grow says 2 ml per litre...so I'll do 1/2 strength daily till run off ph equals input ph..what do u think about that?

 

[MickFoster]

Unnecessary to check the run off pH........I never check it.

 

[Rico1982]

O ok...so just feed ph 6 daily at 1/2 strength....

 

[Rico1982]

What's a good brand of coco perlite mix to order..?

 

[MickFoster]

I use Canna coco.......I don't buy it premixed........I buy the perlite and mix my own.
2:1 ratio.
