I just realized it’s been over 10 years since I popped beans . I’ve always had cuts of clones and straight into hydro . So I’ve been undecided on watering ?
it’s coco should I keep it wet ? I want to encourage root growth but want them happy . Seems to be going well ? There leggy from too low of lighting for sure .I’ve been running a fan on low and removing the humidity dome some . I’m thinking today I should remove them all from the dome and start flood to drain once a day ? There on 200 ppm nutes already.BF0F1161-BB9B-4DEE-9A24-3277048211C7.jpeg

no dome needed and water to good runoff daily amd keep temps above 72f , and .5 EC total (i like distilled for first week then switch to tap) transplant after one week, should be grown enough and just continue in the final container, it will give growth spurts and 3-4 weeks should have a nice big plant. humidity never was a problem rather low or high. its as it gets older that it will need to drop or be adjusted.

this is coco advice idk if your finishing in coco but that first week advice will give you maximum growth, it can only be so big and developed tht first week.

i used GH flora, just follow the mfg of yours accordingly, tap water is fine, the added EC is not an issue, the EC listings on the mfg just help indicate strength. I always get perfect results with this, its the transition from late veg to flower that is tricky. anything up to then, piece of cake. ph is a given. have fun!
 
I've popped some seeds in coco aswell. First time I fed them at 5 days with an EC of 0.4, thought maybe it was too high so the day after with significant dryback I put only r/o water with calmag to 0.2 EC.
I sprayed them once with leafgreen from dutchpro ( also top early I guess )
It crisped up the tips of at least one I'd say.
Any tips?
