OK that sounds perfect then. I'll apply the foliage spray of Epsom salts. Also it was kind of looking like it could possibly be Zinc deficient, which after reading some articles is most likely caused by improper PH so I think you guys have put me on the right track. I'm calibrating my pen as we...
For my first round I would check with the PH pen and then do the drops every time,
then I realized the pen was probably not needed since I know what color.it should turn.
I always mix 4 gallons at a time.
For the last 6 months
my tap water has come out at 7.2 and I need to add 3ml+ of PHdown...
I got sick of PH pens so I just started using the drops. The 5$ kit from the hydro store, do you think I should take a closer look and make sure I'm
getting proper PH readings? One thing is forsure, the PH is slightly different every feeding, but I try and get it as close to the perfect color as...
Well it seems almost everyone agrees on Mag deficiency, so ill be adding epsom salts to feed or doing a foliar spray. I’ll check back in with an update in a dew days.
Thanks for the advice
Thanks for the info.
Well I do have Epsom salts, so I'll add those to my feed. Roughly how much per gallon?
I've been told to keep coco wet and feed with runoff to avoid salt buildups. Seems like a Lose - Lose. :D
I'm going to finish these girls with synthetic nutrients, but I already bought...
I mix 4 gallons at a time.
Tap water :160 ppm
Tap water + CalMag :330 ppm
Tap water + CalMag + Canna A :480 ppm
Tap water + CalMag + Canna A+B :560 ppm
I had a few drops of Super Thrive and 10 ml of Hydrozyme, not sure how...
New grower. One full harvest under my belt, and a second one soon.
Problem with my veg plants that
4x blue cookies from seed
2x4 closet
currently in 3 gallon fabric pots
Canna Coco+Perlite
Canna A+ Canna B+ Cal-mag
PH ~5.8
room temp ~24 Celsius/77 Fahrenheit
RH ~65
I planted these "Blue...
Ok thanks for the reassurance , I'll bump up flower nutes for the last week, and get a day or two of flush in before harvest.
Wonder how much weight I lost :( Oh well, live and learn.
So since runoff is coming out higher, is it possible it's just pulling out old salts? or the excess nitrogen...
Ok, first two answers both said feed. I'll hit'em with half dose today, then up it but keep N down. yeah, I'm hoping to feed these for another weekish
and then flush for day or two and harvest. Darn, it's hard to tell the difference between excess and deficiencies.. I really thought burnt tips...
Coco+perlite, Canna A+B+cal mag, 3 gallon fabric pots, 500w quantum board, 3x6 closet
12/12 lights
starting 8'th week of flower, photo period kandy kush
average RH 55%, daytime 77 Fahrenheit, nighttime 64 Farenheit.
Ok, so new grower, I've had one harvest so far and am close to my second one...
I use Canna coco coir, A+B as well, I use some enzymes and calmag. Also I add some superthrive+mykos for transplant.
I added some perlite to my pots aswell.. I have the same humidity and temperature as you but I run 18/6 lights. Also I grow from seed for now.
Anyways, my plants were bursting...
yeah, I realize that now the more I look into it.. I just ended up ordering some dimmers from Rita lol.. 12$ each plus shipping.. but next time I would try the potentiometer route
yeah, I hear ya. thats sort of the point of this thread.. when I started it i didnt have peace of mind, I worried from the day I made the payment in alibaba until the day my lights arrived. Now im glad to say they are the real deal and no extra assurance is needed. I assume your not the only one...
For me its not about supporting or not supporting small businesses, its about getting the exact same lights for half the price... I was skeptical before I ordered on alibaba, but im happy I did now. If it was the same price, or even close I would have ordered locally... but I saved myself 1000$...
I think im just going to buy the dimmer from them and pay the shipping. 12$ each so 24$, plus 24$ shipping. plus some fee when it hits the border. anwyays under 100$, my fault for not getting them to begin with.
So I am out of my element here..you could even call me "Donny". Can anyone point me towards the easiest solution for me to dim these lights/drivers? I cant seem to find any dimmers on Meanwell's website.. I don't own a soldering iron either. Do I need to buy a potentiometer or can anyone point...
