First coco grow

[Greenthumbgrower1986]

Consider transplanting in another week or less......in the meantime, feed everyday to run off.
What is your final pot size?

Even if coco is still saturated the next day, still feed again?

 

[MickFoster]

aiming to finish in a 20l

That large of a pot is unnecessary in coco because of the frequent feedings.......I finish in a 9.2 liter (2.4 gal.).

The coco should always be saturated........it's hydroponics, not soil.
Feed everyday to run off.

How much light is she getting?

How much light is she getting?

Running a mars ts1000 and full power around 20inches above top of canopy

 

[eyderbuddy]

and your cycle?

i'm asking because more light = more problems... if the factors aren't right.

A plant can be very happy at 200 PPFD for 18 hours and start going crazy if you change her to 400 PPFD

Based on my experience, young plants with immature root systems can be "overwatered".

Also possible right after transplant when rootball is surrounded by gallons of soaking wet coco.

Running a 20/4 cycle as I have autos in the same tent that prefer the slightly longer light.

Roots seem to be fine. They are already coming out of the bottom of the pot I transplanted to 3 days ago

Overwatering is not a case of too much water, its a case of o2 diminishing before been replenished so when you water daily your adding o2 daily.

So water everyday regardless

This currently in the tent. The flowering cheese will be out in a few days. The small brown pot is the photo. The rest are autos in coco

So

even when the plant is small still water to run off? . I didn't add nutes to start as ppm of tap water is around the 300ppm mark and already high in calcium

Yea I plant my seeds directly into my coco I don’t use paper towel or anything and even when just planting seed I’ll water til runoff with about 300 ppm water. That’s with tap water around 150-170 ppm. So roughly 130 or so ppm of nutes.

Unfortunately my tap water is 300ppm alone and can't afford an ro filtee

I have similar sized plants in coco 70/30. I water every 3 days. Once they start to lighten up.ive overwatered coco plants before usually once the clones are rooted I have to wait a week before I can start feeding more aggressively.
