To flush or not to flush using coco

joedabesttt · Wednesday at 5:48 PM

the title explains itself really coming into week 7 and about to finish them up with dragon force on the label it says to use for up to 10 days and then to flush for 5-7 days do you think it’s worth flushing? Does it improve taste let me know if anyone has tested it for themsleves

pictures are worth 1000 words
If I were you I'd add as much info into your grow as possible with some pics then ask for advice
strain, temps day/night, humidity day/night, light, ventilation, nutrient regime, genetics

Strain: slurricane #7 temps: day, 22-26 Celsius night 16-20 Celsius 45% humidity day 55% humidity night 720 w omega LED dimmed to 600w nutrient regime top watering with nutrient solution
30ml pk9/18
90 a 90 b
Sumo boost 1.4ml /l
60ml calmag
60ml silicon
1.2 EC
Genetics are two separate phenos of slurricane #7
Sorry I got confused this is actually week 6 I think

thanks yeah im using shogun it’s about week 6 now do you think i would be okay to use dragon force now or 1 week later also I can never manage to not get burned tips wondering if it’s a nute problem or the lights ‍

more likely an infrequency of moisture issue than anything. are you using automated watering? and what is controlling humidity?
controlling humidity and watering is a game changer with coco

I would feed a lil longer, but not more, just don't cut it off. they're still developing and need the nutrition

No need to flush just lower your ec gradualy as you near harvest time. I wouldnt worry about those tips mine get way more affected than yours. Its pretty hard to avoid nute burn in my experience. Good looking plants btw. This auto got a bit raggly before harvest no flush good dry cure and smooth to smoke

I just have an exhaust fan to control humidity turned up the max now and yeah your probably right I do not measure vpd and this is likely the cause not sure though do you recommend to feed this for a few days
30ml pk9/18
90 a 90 b
Sumo boost 1.4ml /l
60ml calmag
60ml silicon
And then start the dragon force after or just start dragon force now for 10 days ? I am wavering to use the dragon force for 10 days but not 100% I honestly feel like if feeding higher E.C of dragon force I feel like they will fatten up massive if I do I guess it’s all an experiment really tho I listened to a podcast recently where they start out at 2.0 EC going up to 3.0 they where saying feeding like this causes stress to the plant increasing terpenes

Damn bro those are some chunky nuggets what EC are you feeding them at to get this result

so think about this for a minute
as humidity changes, the plant will require more or less moisture from the medium (coco)
if it gets too hot, the plant will drink more, if the plant gets too cold it drinks less

these both influence the strength of your feedings, as well as how much light that strain can handle. Some strains require more or less of certain nutes but that is the great thing about Coco, you are draining to waste so the *high* EC isnt really that high because you are constantly replacing the possible improperly balanced nutes with a new load of nutes

to learn each strain you have to be able to fully control temp, humidity, and watering frequency. seasons here are so different in temp and humidity is what has made me realize this

Pretty low ec actualy 0.4 from sprout building up to 1.0 at around 2 weeks then 1.2 till mid flower then max of 1.4 then tapering off till harvest its all about the lighting and genetics i guess. The strain is strawberry cheesecake v2 auto from 207 genetics. The big girl on the left is was in 70/30 coco perlite and the other plant is in canna terra pro potting mix wanted to do a side by side to confirm that autos seem to grow much bigger in coco or rdwc dwc etc. From now on future grows will be coco as the yeild is always bigger. Both plants came out great but the big girl yeilded 12 oz and the other 6oz. Another thing i learn't with coco i found it tricky to get the timing right when lowering ec towards the end.
