Worse case scenario... be prepared to transplant this thing before it reaches flowering. Welcome to RIU.
It's an auto in a 5 gallon pot though. Probably wouldn't be a good idea to do any transplanting with this one.Worse case scenario... be prepared to transplant this thing before it reaches flowering. Welcome to RIU.
Yep more water retentive version of coco about covers it. I am not watering to run off however, I am watering with ferts at every watering. I am using mega crop that calls for 4g per gallon, I am using 1g per gallon, but instead of once a week its every watering. If it starts looking like that is too much I can do every other watering.Ride it out. I've been wondering about this medium, which sounds like a more water-retentive version of coco growing? The main thing I'd be looking out for is salt build ups. I'm assuming that, like coco, you need to water to a certain run-off %? You might want to go lighter with the nutes than a normal coco routine... just spitballing here. Coco isn't really my thing.
No runoff.... ? Not a good scenario. Salt build up that causes lockouts is very common, easiest remedy is watering till runoff so that there is no build up. And there will be a build up.Yep more water retentive version of coco about covers it. I am not watering to run off however, I am watering with ferts at every watering.

I would have to dump over a gallon of water into that pot to get runoff. My plant is currently not big enough to need that much water and it would likely drown the plant. Unless i am confused on what you mean by "run off"? You do mean add water till it comes out the bottom of the planter right?No runoff.... ? Not a good scenario.

Sorry, jumping from forum to forums here, yes runoff is adding water till about 20% comes out the bottom, and your in seedling still, overkill for now maybe, just be cognizant of that idea for when it matures. Good luck man, happy growing. We want to see you succeed.I would have to dump over a gallon of water into that pot to get runoff.

She's growingHow does she look other than small.... 14 days oldView attachment 5356068
What are you feeding (EC)?How does she look other than small.... 14 days oldView attachment 5356068
The brown and white are both nute residues not the actual leaf. Im feeding about 235-300EC, tho i think i might need to step it up a bit cause she is growing slow.What are you feeding (EC)?
Is that white stuff powdery mildew or is is dried nutrient solution?
Do the newest sets of leaves have brown on them like a boron deficiency or is it just my eyes?
yes, but slowly lol. More concerned if she looks healthy or if im screwing something up. Yes I will be like this all the way to harvest.She's growing
I wouldn't bother with foliar feeding, personally, unless I had to correct something. Yes, up the nutes. By the start of week three I'm at like 1.2EC, for example.The brown and white are both nute residues not the actual leaf.

The Brown is the Water in for the Mycos, Water with Humic Acid and Molasses. The white is resiude from the plain water(hard water that I pH with vinegar.)
My Nute has Boron in it so no worries there.
Runs about 75F to 80F depending on the lights on or off. 70% RH.Temp?
Oh it isnt foliar it just splashed a bit when I watered last lol.I wouldn't bother with foliar feeding, personally, unless I had to correct something. Yes, up the nutes. By the start of week three I'm at like 1.2EC, for example.
80 is better At that stage. 70-75 in late bloom. Just my opinion.Runs about 75F to 80F depending on the lights on or off. 70% RH.
75 is when the lights are off, which is for about 4 hours.80 is better At that stage. 70-75 in bloom. Just my opinion.
Don’t use vinegar,The brown and white are both nute residues not the actual leaf. Im feeding about 235-300EC, tho i think i might need to step it up a bit cause she is growing slow.
