those sprouts look nitrogen deficient i would foliar spray with some ferts to green them up again it helps quicker than just watering with ferts.
*limited*. Mad chemist more like, lol.umm lets see im using a limited amount of products as im on a budget. im using tiger bloom/ffarn beastie bloom/ffarm superthrive sweet/botanicare seaweed extract tarntula and piranha/advanced.n and high phosphorous bat guano i think thats it i may have missed something.
after mixing it drops down to around 4. i bring it up to about 5.8. but it being earth juice it very well may go up. i know if it sits overnight the ph goes up a bit. plain water just means regular ph adjusted water. no additives, get the ph to 5.8 and put it in.whats the ph of your fert mix after mixing and ready to use and by plain water what do you mean?
ok, that i was worried about. it's hard to tell with earth juice. i was already planning on cutting back the nute strength to see if that'd help. my next scheduled feeding is plain water anyways.those look like good signs of nute burn there.
Try a good flush and clean water for a few waterings to clean it out. Then slowly ad nutes under recommended dosage.
thanks. i'm switching from earth juice to g.h. flora, as well. pH has been an issue ever since using ej, so i'm hoping after i switch nutes it'll be a little easier to deal with.in a situation like this there are lots of ferts present but unavailable to the plant because of ph being to high or low then the ph shifts/rebounds and too much ferts become immediately available and the plant gets burned. i would suggest switching to ro or distilled water its easier to avoid this situation. i had the same issue on another grow that i used tap water on. but for now as someone said do a flush when im not sure what the issue is i flush. normally helps and does not seem to hurt.
Well im enjoying the fruits of my first grow ever, and im so very very happy i chose hempy.. So very easy, and alows for such lazyness..hey guys i need some advice help wtv you want call it, well i transplanted my babies into their first home 16 0z hempys and fed them for the first time with a light soup of 350 ppm nutes (GH Nutes) its been about 5 days and they have taken off and improved incredibly from what they were starting to look at fist in their Rw starter cubes. Well my main questions i guess is how should i feed them? every day or every other day? do i top off with water only or with water and nutes, mixed? Im a little confused because idk if i have to keep my resevoir at a certain ppm or as long as i keep topping them off with the mix i already made of 350 ppm i dont have to worry about ppm??? not sure please help a noob out, this is my first grow btw so be understanding.
1 st pic is of how they started other pics are after they got fed, been topping off with 350 ppm mix every other day. I mean i would think is easier now because their in small hempys but once i transplant them to their 2.5 gal hempy i would guess it gets more difficult.
Thanks!!

Just lift them mate..
If they feel light, they want a sip untill you get a little overflow..
Dunno bout the ppm's i just followed the 3-part GH Flora chart..
And kept my PH around 6ish.
Had to add more nutes at the end but other than that the 1-2-3 etc. worked perfectly..
I tried the "lazy" way and just did what i had to do.. No extra fancy stuff..
And im in NO way unhappy with my yield nor the quality..
Hope it helped a little
PS. Yeah i mix in nutes every time i water.. Sorry for the rambling, so very stoned
Edit: Right, forgot to mention that i used 100% perlite in 10l buckets (2.5gal i think that is) and i had to water every 2-3 days.. The girls drank about 2l (½ gal) each pr. watering(At size ofc)..
Prolly add more as the head clears
Great thing about hempy is......YOU DONT NEED TO FLUSH!cheers mate, thanks for your help, wish i can hear more opinions on these but guess not.
I was mainly not clear on wheter to top off daily with a nute mix or feed them one day and topem off with water only afterwards.
anyhow i will just topem off with nute mix every other day and raise my nute strength as the grow. Im on 1/4 strengh been going easy on dem but i think there ready for lucas formula...
I do this: Feed, Feed, Water. Feed, Feed, Water.. etc...cheers mate, thanks for your help, wish i can hear more opinions on these but guess not.
