    Would you switch to flower or would you still veg it?

    They vegged for 3 month. Some time of that they were stunned and deficient. They were 25 inches tall. Now after scrogging they are 12 inches. They are sexually mature. What do you mean by pinch and pop? Like topping tops to keep them from growing to tall? So you think they are ready because...

    Would you switch to flower or would you still veg it?

    Vegging for one week extra won't kill me. Are you sure? When I veg more and the screen fills out more what happens when they stretch too much in flowering? With extra light penetration do you mean defoliation to get the big fan leaves out of the way?

    Would you switch to flower or would you still veg it?

    Ok that's what I was thinking too! Switching to flower now and defoliating over the course of 2-3 weeks. Also get rid of popcorn buds. Thank you very much for your input!

    Seedling yellowing leaves and some are dying off. What do you guys think? (with imeages)

    Idk maybe I'm wrong. The light was too close. When I turned down the power consumption and moved the light further away from canopy they got better... But maybe the problem was not enough nutrients for the bright light so dimming down helped not because of too much light but because of not...

    Questions about ppm in liquid fertilizer and final nutrient solution measurements

    Thanks for your input! Whenever I dilute Lucas I get deficient plants. So yeah even if it's high EC full Lucas is the way to go for me. The plant didn't show deficiency signs of all 5 nutrients but even supplementing the deficiencies she showed didn't help my plants to bounce back to healthy...

    Would you switch to flower or would you still veg it?

    This time my plants were very deficient and it took a while to figure out what the problem was. By now I've solved the problem and they are growing good. My plan was to train them early on but since they started to get deficient from seedling on I didn't train them because I wanted them to be...

    Seedling yellowing leaves and some are dying off. What do you guys think? (with imeages)

    I've already solved it thank you! Already have another pen. But that didn't resolve my problems... a too low overall EC and too much light was the problem. Now with higher EC I don't even have to add supplements. By the way post is some month old.

    Questions about ppm in liquid fertilizer and final nutrient solution measurements

    Yes Lucas uses just 2 of the 3 bottles and I have nice results using it. I'm using it for a long time so yeah I like it very much lol. I already have threads where I've discussed the deficiencies with pictures and I've already talked with a lot of people over here and I already solved the...

    Questions about ppm in liquid fertilizer and final nutrient solution measurements

    Nice to hear that you have the same problem when diluting the lucas formula to a lower EC lol! Can you tell me at what strength you use the lucas formula? 100%? And what about your setup? What lights and wattage and so on are you using?

    Questions about ppm in liquid fertilizer and final nutrient solution measurements

    I already use the lucas formula! But people recommend everywhere to use a lower EC like 1.0 so I've diluted the EC from full 100% Lucas to about 45-50% strength to get EC 1.0. But I get deficiencies when I dilute it that low but people say that lower EC is better but when I do it my plants get...

    Questions about ppm in liquid fertilizer and final nutrient solution measurements

    I use medical syringes to measure the nute amount. Yes that's true weighing powder is more accurate... I'm thinking about mixing my own nutrient powder... But first I will use up all my liquid nutes so they don't go to waste lol! It was a questions because I was wondering why my plants were...

    Questions about ppm in liquid fertilizer and final nutrient solution measurements

    I don't even measure ppms. I only measure the EC. I've calculated the ppms based on what the bottle states on the labels! And based on what I've calculated I was not feeding enough so I increased the EC.

    Questions about ppm in liquid fertilizer and final nutrient solution measurements

    Since hydro nutes have it all I stopped using supplements. Now if they look deficient I just add more nutes lol! As long as they look good I don't care how high the EC is lol!

    Magnesium and Potassium Lockout due to too much Calcium?

    Hi dude! At first they got better and better but then I had to put them in another grow area because one of the plants was stunt from day 30 or so on so she was very small compared to the other plant. The other plant grew above her and took all the space and light so I've decided to split them...

    Questions about ppm in liquid fertilizer and final nutrient solution measurements

    The strange thing is when I go by feeding chart or by what people say (for example EC 1.0 like u mentioned) I get heavy deficient plants. Right now I'm feeding about 1.7 EC and they start to look better and EC is falling so they eat more than they drink... Anyway I'm still wondering why my EC...

    Questions about ppm in liquid fertilizer and final nutrient solution measurements

    So the EC meter measures 245 ppm because it measures the oxygen too and my calculated element forms is just ~60% of that because I calculate the elemental form without the oxygen?

    Questions about ppm in liquid fertilizer and final nutrient solution measurements

    Yes I always measure the distilled water. When they add minerals it isn't distilled water anymore... EC is always 0 Yes. Just 1 bottle of the 3 part. Just the Micro bottle. And yes just 1 ml of the micro bottle in 1 Litre distilled water. setup is DWC so all water. I always measure in EC...

    Questions about ppm in liquid fertilizer and final nutrient solution measurements

    Somehow my calculated ppm's don't match the measured nutrient solutons ppm... WHY? Infos about my fertilizer (keep in mind this is just one bottle of a 3 part nutrient formula): 1 Liter fert solution weights 1.213kg Nitrate nitrogen 4% Ammoniacal nitrogen 1% Total nitrogen (N) 5%...

    One plant is significantly smaller. What would you do?

    Thanks! Can't hang a second light in there... But I will build another grow space so I can put the big plant in and scrogging it while the small plant can catch up in the other area with more light! Actually she was the first to sprout and the fastest to grow.... until she was fucked with and...
