If you really, really want to there's no harm in trying! If you can afford the money and time vs potential loss and really want the genetics, why not? Only thing is, chances are, you'll get more hermaphrodite plants. I might consider crossing it with something else, then going on a hunt for...

You're doing fine! Best thing about this hobby, always learning. If I may, you still have weeks to go looking at your pictures. Leave checking trichomes until the plant's filled out nice and barely, if any, white pistils. You've got a ton of new growth in the buds there, be patient. It's all...

Difficult to believe letting the soil dry too far would really do such a thing. Droop from no water, sure, but lockout and deficiency etc is likely from something else imo. In my own experience lack of water is usually a quick fix and they perk back to full health within minutes, can almost...

It's definitely a handy tool to have, takes a lot of the guess work out. I recommend getting one for sure. Best investment I've ever made in this hobby is a Blue Lab Combo. Even if you can't afford one, it's worth forking out for one imo. I looked @ the FF Trio feed chart. Notice the total EC...

Looks like a hungry plant to me. Magnesium, potassium, maybe nitrogen too. Might just need to bump the nutes up a bit, if you say you're at half and you're going feed / water / feed / water. Do you know your EC? That would give a good indication.

Hardly organic using Advanced 3-part + additives, just saying. That's not necessarily true. Plants will thrive up to 7.5 and 8 isn't that far out of range. You can deal with it and looks as if the plants have been. Looks good overall. I'd worry more about input pH whilst using nutes. Tbh...

Water won't work, soil's buffered. You need something like sulphur. That's why I suggest peatmoss. I don't suggest using straight sulphur, or anything else like that. Though some peatmoss won't hurt and might bring the pH down some. No, do not do that. That's not how it's supposed to be used...

Try top dressing some peatmoss. Might bring it down a little bit after a couple waterings. I wouldn't go throwing a bunch of stuff at it trying to bring it down, will do more harm than good. You can get away with 7.5 more important is your input pH. Half strength nutes, it's probably buildup...

I think plain water once, see how it goes. That's a lot of inputs for your nutrient solution, I believe you can get away with the 3-part alone, the others are just extras. Sometimes less is more. Yeah, that's plenty, I think. If you have any nutrient buildup you'll have a better guess once you...

If it's truly "nutrient burn" @ half strength nutes, then something else is to blame. Not enough drainage in the pot, or not watering thoroughly enough when you feed, I'd say. Something to keep in mind about overfeeding and lockouts, is it looks virtually the same as deficiency. What we see as...

Same pot, same amount. Yes, minimum once per day growing coco. Minimum. If you can get Canna Terra Pro, Promix etc, get those. I've used Canna Terra Pro and liked it. You can use it straight out the bag for smaller pots. I was using 40% perlite for my largest pot which is 80L. I was watering...

I've always hand watered myself. Grew with coco for a while. I find potting mix with a lot of perlite to be easier. Less watering, less nutrients used, less waste, less work, less hassle. Imho, if you're growing coco and aren't automated, it gets really old really quick.

Looks good in there! I wouldn't sweat it much. Could be watering too often, maybe, could be overfert, maybe. Unlikely deficiency imo, as you're supplementing nutrients and looks fairly healthy overall. More likely a bit too much of something. I would give plain water on next watering, with...

I don't like defoliation myself, but you do you, looks good all in all! :weed:

Looking good! Few weeks to several to go.

Sounds like you're watering too frequently. Give it longer between. See how they go. Watering until you get some runoff is important, as it ensures proper soil saturation, helps remove unwanted silts and dissolved solids. If you're worried about microbes, top soil drying out etc, and growing...

Is it possible you're watering too often? How do you go about watering? From here, looks like a pretty big pot for the plant's size, easy to overwater.

And, again that's a healthy looking plant, I wouldn't start changing things and chasing my tail, for something that likely doesn't exist.

That's a healthy looking plant, well done. You're right, needed a larger pot, twice the size or more. But besides that you've done well.

Looks great, nice and healthy! Whatever you're doing, keep doing it, just coast it to the finish, no point changing anything now. Really close to ready, another couple weeks to the window, I'd say. You're at the point, even if disaster struck and you had to harvest tomorrow, you'd still get...
