Hi all!
Will try and keep this short!
For some odd reason, could not get anything to germinate in the organic commercial soils I had access too. Wasted away a number of seeds from my first order. I was seeking assistance in another forum, but unfortunately, seemed to have hit a wall there. I was very cautious of not over or underwatering. And the usual newbie mistakes. May revisit soil at a later date.
I did finally get a Nother Lights Auto (seedsman) to germinate in coco, and soon after transplanted it into soil. Quite early, as I was travelling for a bit. But it stopped growing. Below pic from day 23 in the soil.
Figuring I have nothing to loose, moved it to a DWC rig with unbranded nutes locally available. Im in south asia, so your regular brands are not. And here she is 24 days later. The plant started adding growth as soon as I moved it to a DWC rig. However, newbie that I am, it has taken me a trial and error to get the pH and EC stable. She is currently sitting in water with a pH of 5.9 and an EC of 1.29. i suspect my EC is a bit too high. And I have seen the EC and pH increase marginally over the past 4 days.
The leaves have some veins and spotting. The old leaves took damage early on, so Im ignoring those. I am tempted to consider a CalMag deficiency, but need guidance.
So far, my dosage is :
Micro .75ml/L
Grow 1.5ml/L
Bloom .75ml/L
pH Down @ 1.2ml approx.
Backgrung EC @ .22, pH @ 7.4
I have 4L water in the 10L bucket with 2 airstones.
I also have with me, CalMag / Bactorr + Mycorr (thenutrientcompany) / Epsom. None of which I have yet used as I want to take it step by step.
So, thank you all for taking the time to read through this. Gratitude for any help around here.
Ill happily answer all relevant questions as they pop up.
A last quick on my grow. Its a cabinet with a home made LED array outputting 120W @ 3000K. Very basic.
Cheers!
