I am growing some Purple Lemonade from fast buds in
5gal fabric pot Mother earth Coco 70/30 mix
Dr earth dry amendments 4-4-4 - 3-9-4 (added both at beginning once)
Spider farmer Sf1000 led in a 2.5x2.5x5 tent about 2ft away

I just finished week 2 and for about the last week growth has been steady but off the first set of real leaves twisted a little at the ends I thought it was due to the wind but now I'm not so sure as the next set of leaves grew fine but quickly started to curl at the ends and now are showing brown edges.. this is my first grow and I'm at a loss as to

Mother Earth is a coco/perlite mix, soilless and mainly used for hydro. I believe Dr Earth is an amendment for soil grows. I don’t grow soil much, but I think you would do better to pick one or the other. Hopefully others will add more info.

Ok stop watching him he’s an idiot. Read some more on here, if you want to keep your medium of coco/perlite (that’s what I use) get some hydro nutes like gh or jacks, and go from there. I’ll help as much as I can, just ask, most people here will help out as much as possible.

Figured. Another victim of Mr. Canuck! I'm sure you can get it to work, but I wouldn't recommend it. If it's your first grow, do soil. Or do coco, but follow cocoforcannabis. That's a reliable place.

And that looks great man, PM me where you got your seeds for sour D and durban. Would like deetz.

Use hydro nutrients, not soil amendments. Coco A+B is good from what I've read. I've seen good results from advanced nutrients ph perfect as well. You can use fox farms trio if you want. Just pick something, and stop following fools.

The new growth looks alright, keep it going and see how it goes. The thing with mixing amendments with coco is that you gotta work harder. I've never seen Mr Canuck but I bet he says "hey do this and you'll only have to add water!" I'm guessing something like that?

Try keeping on, but PH your water and try to keep it around 5.8-6 PH.
