Didn’t realise how breathable it was as well water flows through quite easy, I was worried about water logging it at first haha

Yeah thanks mate definitely grew quite a bit since then I must have stunted the growth a little at first coz this is my first time using coco and I was just giving them water for the first few days, didn’t realise I was to add nutes from seedling haha.

Thanks mate quite technical stuff but yeah true anything to get you to buy more haha I feel like a lot of the guides are quite high. Yeah thanks mate gives you a better idea when trying to read the plants. When I checked the other day runoff seemed all good. One of one them the leafs are...

Checked the runoff as well went in as 1.1 out as 1.0

These two looking a little funny

One on the back left with those marks on the leafs, its dropping a little dk if that’s just coz I’m going to feed them and they’re hungry or what, but the marks haven’t seemed to get any worse since I started giving the plant some calmag.

Thanks for explaining that mate, I’ll check the Ec this time in a clean tray, I’ve got them at about 1.1 right now so will see how they do and maybe slightly increase over the next few days. No worries mate thanks so do you not give any higher than 1.3 EC in flower as well I’ve seen people...

Thank you mate, they seem to be happier now. Started to add .5ml of calmag per L of water and think they’re liking it. Should I start to increase the feed more at 1.0 Ec right now, what’s the max I should be pushing a few more weeks into veg once they are bigger?

Ok cheers mate, what about if it’s under or over?

Haha yeah mate But thank you mate will make sure to clean the trays inbetween feedings from now on.

I think so mate that’s what my Ec pen says, it’s a blue lab one as well so I think it’s accurate just calibrated it too. With checking the Ec of runoff does the runoff need to be clean or how does that work since there is bits of coco in the runoff, as I seen you saying on another post you...

Yeah sorry mate meant not using RO, using tap water, but my bluelab EC pen says it’s 0 just calibrated it as well. I’m in the UK if that makes a difference

This is another up to date photo I just took, looking a lot better from Monday when I first uploaded though.

Ok mate thanks I’ll see how they do and up the feed and will raise the ph slightly then had it at 6.0, will check the run off tomorrow when I feed again. and no mate I’m not using tap water but got drops to add to get rid of the bad stuff in the water, put a pic of them at the bottom. And no...

They are starting to look better now mate and growing faster to now I’ve been watering them to runoff with some feed, but one of them has some brown rust spots on the leafs, it is a little younger than the rest but I sort of thought it looked like a calcium deficiency from photos I seen...

Cheers mate I didn’t end up topping them off, gave them another day coco was still nice and wet but the leafs are looking pale green / yellow so I’ve upped the feed again to .8 EC, fed them to runoff ended up around 175ml per plant but got about 20% runoff this time instead off 10% compared to...

No worries mate, thanks for taking the time to explain. I wouldn’t say it was packed to tightly, and it’s 70/30 coco / perlite but yeh I should probably start the seedlings in solo cups next time like you said. I’ll see how they’re doing in a few hours once the lights go on and see if they need...

Added a photo here, any tips or tricks would be appreciated as this is my first time using coco, always used soil before.

Today they’re still quite wet mate, maybe absorbed 40-50% judging off the weight of the pots, a few of my leafs are drooping slightly should I wait until tomorrow to feed them again or should I be feeding daily? Would once every 2 days be ok at this stage if the coco is still damp?

I meant 150 ml total off the 8 plants, was only around 15-20ml per plant id say
