So i am on day 33 of my dream berry auto grow. Im in fox farm ocean forest with 30ish% of perlite. The two plants have definetely been growing a bit different. But my concern is the past week and a couple days it seems like they have stunted growth. I did find my ph was just a tad high from whats reccomended, about 7. but i fixed that. I was underwatering it seemed just cause the bottom of my 5 gallon pot always seemed to be dry. I amended the soil with down to earth 444 and 484 with wormcastings day 21 for day 28 nutes to start. But again, they just seem to be growing real slow. I think its a nutrient problem but i am a novice grower and have no idea what to do.... I NEED SOME HELP! Temps and humidity have been damn near perfect. i dont know what else it could be or how to fix it.

Plant is hungry.... needs food... at this point I'd be feeding daily with Jack's 10-30-20 at 800 ppm, maybe 1000 until you catch up and the color darkens...

you think so? i mean i thought amending the soil with the down to earth 444 and 484 would be enough for atleast another 2 weeks, but if you think its hungry.. i mean i checked the ppm when i gave it a solid watering last night. it was about 1000 in the run off. you think its locked out or just still hungry?

I never measure runoff. Just look at the plants... they're hungry... I'd be feeding at 1000 ppm right now... for the next couple weeks....

Ocean forest is loaded.... you need to ph right and keep them well watered... I suspect your getting too dry... especially for the strength of the soil.... keep the humidity high til about week 5.... led grows can stay at 65% for most of the grow.

Thanks for the info, I knew ocean forest was loaded and after really looking into the watering I saw that 25% of the size pot your growing in is about the right amount to have the soil fully soaked. I was underwatering by like 3/4 of a gallon. I know I have to watch that it doesn't get to wet but I'm in fabric pots so I know that helps. I watered 2 days ago with a gallon each and they seem to have liked it, my one plants(right side in pic) "claw" leaves that it had are basically gone now. The other plant seems to not have as much leafy growth and is stretching more then the other with alot of foliage. Im going to tighten the lst and get more light on the other one but I'm going to have to do the same on the other just to get them even. Thanks for the info though.
