    Nutrients for soil grows

    Ready for my easy peazy way to remember the minimum amount to feed on feeding days? Be sure to have a ppm meter handy,....ready?......never feed more ppms than light watts. Tada! So, for instance: my tap is 240 ppms. Already more than my veg light watts, but its not NPK. So on a feeding day i...

    Soil: How often do you personally water?

    Generally in soil, you should not be in a container bigger than the plant. If the plant is the right size in a 3 gallon pot, you will initially water once every 4-7 days depending on variables. As the plant gets bigger, the watering will be more frequent. Once you have to water every 3 days its...

    HELP!!! Autos not looking good with slow growth.

    : 995618"] When you grow in soil you feed the bacteria. Bacteria eat the food and break it down. This then feeds the plant. This is why you feed water water. Need to let the bacteria do their thing. In coco you don't feed the bacteria you feed the plant. Coco and hydro are the same. So...

    HELP!!! Autos not looking good with slow growth.

    Sorry, i have to ask, does this apply to just plain coco? Or any kind of coco mix? I treat my coco mix like soil....with no problems. Im on a F W W W F schedule, but every single watering they get Calmag

    Does anyone know whats going on here? Purple stems

    Red stems on fan leaves= not a big deal Red stems holding nugs= Mag def or over watering Looks like week 3-4 flower. At that point a lot of stretch and growth has occurred. If you do not supplement enough Calmag, or Mag period, you get the red stems. Photosynthesis slows as Mag gets used up...

    Ideas what’s causing leaf bleaching

    Yeah, its possibly mag related or overwatering. Those stems look burgundy or grey? Its young so she might pull thru. If you over water, sometimes it looks like a deficiency as well. Rotted roots dont absorb nutes. Hope you figure it out. Cheers

    Does anyone know whats going on here? Purple stems

    I dont see anything listed for Calmag or Mag Sulphate/sulfur. Usually red stems is an indication of a mag deficiency or slight chronic over watering. The leaf burn is from too high of ppms too often or too much light. BUT!! if you have been overwatering the root hairs could be rotted and will...

    Will these buds be smokable after a trim?

    Surely: Some new growers often mistake watering days as feeding days. If they keep feeding 600 ppms to a tiny plant like we see under 80 watts, of course its going to burn. Instead of a (Feed, Water)FWFWFW schedule, try a F,W,W,W,F schedule. Now, say this plant was healthy and in a 1 gallon...

    Will these buds be smokable after a trim?

    1st off, yes, im super impressed with what you have there. Nice job! I see some very red stems which could be mag deficiency or over watering. Be careful, i think you said you were in a 1 gallon pot? You cant feed high ppms to a plant in a small container, on a frequent basis. Also, using low...

    Advanced nutrients low P.H.

    I agree with above, if ec is going up and ph is falling, feed less. Now that doesnt mean make the same solution and give less. It means drop some of those nutrients or additives you're mixing. When its feeding day just use the A+b. On regular water days, or if in hydro, give a couple of the...

    How many clines 4 x 2x7

    I use 3 gallons all the time. 4 is comfy, 5 is a little tight depending on the size of the plants. If you veg only a week or 2, you can fit at least 10 1 gallon pots in a 2x4. Do a sog with single cola plants. Good luck either way

    LED Light Recommendation for 2x4 Grow Tent

    Well, you're comparing 300 watts to 330 watts right? How much more can be achieved from using nearly the same watts? But, its your choice. Seems expensive to me, but i know, sometimes we just gotta have something new right? I get like that too

    Two Tents 4 Perpetual Puffing (LED Powered)

    So beautiful!! People hate on Mars but they work fine. You are a great example of it. Nice job filling up the space with 1 plant. At first i saw that huge pot and was skeptical but the clone you started with was a beautiful healthy clone with lots of branches already. Excellent job

    confirm lockout or calmag - or just help lol

    Too much nutrients/too high ppms for size of plant and size of pot. Dont treat coco like hydro, its almost like soil. Water to 10-20% runoff. Wait 4-7days until the pot is lightweight. Water again. Waterings are not feedings. Calmag is not a nutrient, its a supplement. It can be given every...
