So it was under-watering. I have been giving much more water at a time and not letting them dry as far and they are all slowly coming back. I haven't been watering to run-off yet as i'm using very pure water and only ferted twice at very low dose, all organic so have had no need to run...
It's good info. I've read about people blending them, however, to create a slightly different overall composition. I imagine the overall watering needs would change based on that overall composition more so than a severe clashing of the coco and soil?
I think you're probably right. And yeah, I've noticed the water running out, especially where the handles are stitched on. It will run right out, but then as the medium gets wetter and can pull the water in, I've seen it seep out then some immediately get pulled back in.
I am leaning toward them being under now. So I just watered the lightest ones, noticeably lighter than the others, about 30 oz each. Will check in the morning to see how they reacted.
From seed to week 3 or so they grew great with zero issues, I've only recently lost the ability to gauge...
Yeah I agree, I've done it all from picking the pots up to gauging by sight and feeling the soil, the moisture meter is just for another reference point. Even when some were very light and felt dry, and then I watered, they still were drooping. Maybe it wasnt enough though? Some I tested w a...
My first time posting here, have used the site's info for years though.
I'm currently growing in 3 gallon fabric pots, which I haven't used before. I'm using a somewhat new-to-me mix of about 50% ocean forest, 25% perlite, and 25% coco coir (haven't used the coco before). For some reason I am...
