Just curious, how do you guys water? Im curious as to the most common size dripper (.5gph, 1 gph, 2 gph) as i think im going to switch to a poly tube ring with 3 2gph drippers so it spreads the water out more rather than 1 dripper in the middle.

Honestly I hand water everyday, that way i can water the plants that need it a bit more and the ones that don't a bit less. The main reason to have an automatic watering system is so you can water multiple times a day. Imo hand watering gets you in there and I end up noticing issues quicker than if i wasn't daily looking closely at each plant.

Heres a small update. Babies have been doing pretty good but theres a little problem im having on a few leaves of a few plants. Anyone have any idea whats going on? My nutes should be on point at 700ppm fed from two 2gph drippers for 3 minutes 3 times a day(just switched from 2 times a day yesterday) and ph stays at 5.8.

Honestly I went to the hydro store and the guy whose helped me multiple times said i just wasnt feeding enough because I was at 450ppm. I upped to 600 and now 700 and they are doing really well except this problem. I didn't add anything but more canna a +b and it got rid of the problems I was having.

If you just search Canna a b ro water you will find multiple threads on other communities where people are discussing this. From what I have read plus my own experience you should add Calmag+ from botanicare. Canna has no micronutrients and you may have a slight iron deficiency. Looks like people are getting better results w calmag than without. Cheap product should be worth the money tenfold.

I feed my coco every single day, 1 gallon each plant drinks almost all of it and they grow huge and green no burn. Coco isn't dirt so don't treat it like dirt, do not let it dry out at all, you are in hydroponics you should be feeding at least every other day or every day.
