Aw, I just added the chlorine to my res and ngl am a little bit disappointed it isn’t enough to get that pool smell. Let’s see how this goes!

I mean, I’m fairly sure it’s mold of some kind. It’s white and fuzzy, it smells like mold, it’s growing all over the top of the coco and spreading throughout, I let the top dry out occasionally to try and keep it away, but I can see it around the bottom of the drain holes where roots are...

Thank you @rkymtnman , I’ll make it a sticky note. My math isn’t great, but from what I understand, 64% at 0.1g per 10 gallons = 1ppm, that should mean bk’s exact same ratio with 70% hypochlorite will still be within the safe 5ppm-max range. Will be trying it out in a little while when the R/O...

Perfect. I’m trying to figure that out right now based on what your using, but I’d be keen to hear what he reckons.

Beautiful. Thanks heaps @bk78

The only bleach available has sodium hydroxide in it, unfortunately.

I’m wondering if this Pool shock product, “70% calcium hypochlorite, with cyanuric acid as a stabiliser” is safe for the plants. Any idea?

I believe so. Although not dramatic, there’s some minor leaf curling/twisting on two plants, and yellow spots appearing on some lower leaves. There’s a large amount of biofilm and slime in the runoff, also a smell of mold.

So I’ve tried using H2O2, 50% strength solution, at a concentration of up to 0.2mL per L, which has not been effective in getting rid of white mold growing on the Coco. Surprisingly, grape seed extract has proven very effective at removing visible mold. Although GSE has worked for visible mold...

So much character for such a little guy! He demands my respect. On this, the day of daughters wedding. I should upload another pic of my mutant, she looks like she might bounce back, but at the moment still first on the list for possible culling. The other one not doing so well is an Afghan...

Absolutely. I started a journal for it so you can check out the progress anytime, I'll try to keep up with updating it and as always I welcome your input. https://www.rollitup.org/t/victors-first-indoor-grow-4x4-a-variety-of-familiar-strains-from-seedsman.1076231/#post-16978755 I have the urge...

@Grow Monster Long veg or not, my main goal would be too fill this tent but not overfill. How I'm going to do that with 8 plants I guess I'll find out. I'm bound to get some extra branches if I want to clone them all, which I do.

I've got some free time so I'll have a look at that vid right now. I'm still figuring out how I'm going to tackle this in the long run since my original idea didn't pan out. The tent has 3/4 sides access which will be handy but if need be I can set up another small tent to take the pressure...

So I guess I'll start a journal for this. First time indoors and first time with coco. Please feel free to chime in, as I'm new to this and willing to soak up as much guidance and constructive criticism as possible. I'm running 5 different strains from Seedsman. I didn't want to buy anything...

You're a legend, I can't thank you enough! I have some 6% w/v hydrogen peroxide right in front of me. I might dilute a little bit of it and put a drop or two straight onto that white patch right now and then try using a little bit more with the next watering. I'll give it a few waterings with...

I see, of course that makes sense. That mutant is actually about 12 days old like the rest of them, but it probably hasn't developed a decent root system yet so I'll take it easy. Thanks again for helping out. I didn't expect to have so many little issues, I feel like an idiot with all of this...

Alright, I'll give that a try. Thank you xtsho. Should I stop watering all the seedlings once per day till runoff, or just the mutant? I thought maybe I should cut down the watering frequency too, but I've been following the advice on https://www.cocoforcannabis.com/ that recommends daily, if...

I see what your saying.. My idea was to run a sog from 10 seeds, not ideal of course, and as Roger said a true sog would require more plants per square foot anyway. I liked the idea of less veg time. I based my plant count on advice from the cocoforcannabis website, which says 9 is a minimum...

Thank you so much for this! I was originally going to grow a couple of mothers from seed in a smaller tent, and then get them nice and bushy for a sog from clones- but I decided to run a whole bunch of seeds to flower first. I will definitely take clones from each if I can, and then sus out the...

Oh I see.. 1 per square foot, so that would be 16 plants in a 4x4 if my math isn't terrible? Well I have 8 not including the mutant, they're all grown from seed, not clones. I suppose this means I can veg them out longer and do a bit of training. Thank you for the info. With 8 plants, would it...
