Long story short I have 14 coco plants in I believe 7 gallon pots. There are more coming so I was thinking about putting panda film around the room or something.

They’re under (2) Crecer PanthrX LED. He has been using this nute brand called Lotus but he ran out.

Im going to start a grow journal because I’m doing a 100 gallon notill grow along with this. Here’s a couple pictures, I’ve NEVER done anything besides soil before so this is a first.

It was 79F and about 50% RH

They’re not completely mine, we’re splitting 50/50 and with profits I’ll upgrade but with that being said I’m not going to do anything “drastic” for a few days.

He was plucking some fan leaves from beneath some nodes, thoughts on that?
What do you guys suggest be done with these plants?

Feed at least once per day to run off using a pH around 6.0.
Never give plain water.
Never let the coco dry out.
Do this and you won't have any problems.

Any suggestions on nute brand? I’ve spent all my time on living soil so I’m out of my element. Thanks for your time. I’ve been told they need some work, what would you do to these plants?

I don’t know much about LED, but they’re under two of these. I have another smaller LED and a 600W but I think the two LED is enough you think?

There are plenty of good nutes for coco.........I use GH MaxiBloom from start to finish.
Don't make the mistake of treating coco like soil..........it's drain to waste hydroponics.

I would start feeding nutes twice a day to run off with a pH around 6.0
As I mentioned........no plain water and never let it get dry.

So u have a total of 1280watts of light that's enough light , I only mentioned because in the first pic there is shadow , dark spot on like 3 plants at the front

That being said it's still a lot of plants regardless because they havnt even stretched yet so I'm thinking defoliate the shit of them to keep everything getting good amount of light, Good luck on your grow! Cheers

I would remove the first few sets of branches from each plant and then strip each remaining branch 50%. Like only leave the prime bud sites. I would do that and then give them 5-8 days to recover and then strip whatever else isn't growing straight up. Otherwise u just gonna have a bunch of flipppidy floppidy

Ok thanks. I was following my buddies order bc they were his plants but were 50/50 so yeah. He was taking some fan leaves that were below nodes off, said were waiting a few days to strip more because they were moved from one house to another. Similar to transplant shock is what he was meaning. Would you agree with that or no?

It also seems like the tops are kinda close to each other, should I try to spread them out somehow?

I was reading that coco is similar to drain to waste, which I know nothing about just saying. Lotus brand was being used on these plants, I was told it’s kinda pricey, think you’d get similar results from General Hydroponics?
