what is your lighting? light and co2 are the actual plant food. nutes is just vitamins and minerals for us. as they wisely stated above the plant will tell you. usually with weak lighting in ffof you don't need any nutes at all. maby a good microbe to make available whats already there. I also agree thoes plants are nitrogen toxic.

half way down this page is a break down I did of emerald harvests nutrient line. if you are running the cal mag I would stop it all together. it adds the most nitrogen in that line in bloom. would also dial back the bloom a by a couple mills per gal

Also since you've used these products what do you suggest that I use (ml wise) in ffof soil?

I'm using everything except the sturdy stalk and root wizard. Just used the cal mag once.
 
honestly that's pretty weak if it were me I would only use king kola at this point from now till harvest also I would add a good microbe not root wizard to expensive for how much you use. I suggest microbe life photosynthesis plus or there fruit and vegetable yield enhancer. if you have the money for it mammoth p is fantastic. if it and microbes is all that you feed then it is safe to feed every time if you must but I would only every other time

super dark green waxy glossy looking leaves. not to bad yet but looks like some of the leaves are starting to get the nitrogen claw

lol didn't mean anything by it just letting you know if you were growing hydro which is always in solution and they get nothing from the media uses the feeding schedule they were written with the assumption that your under 1000w light. 400w means your using less than half strength nutes off the rip. again that's with no medium. your plants are way over fed and the unused salts are building up in the soil and likely have killed the microbes. just distilled water and microbes for a while.

I know you didn't I was just kidding lol. This is correct because I see buildup at the bottom of the plant smh. Am I screwed? I truly needed to hear this advice. Thanks again... Just so I understand correctly, use half or full strength honey chome with distilled?

Sounds good. I'm currently using Emerald Harvest nute line. I also have a dry/ wet meter. I'll try out the water only for a feed or two depending on how it goes. Thanks

i followed the chart exactly when i used emaral harvest and loved the line. i did a clean water every 3rd feeding and never had any issues. very nice healthy green stalks all the way through to no red stems anywhere. i had the whole line except the root wizard. but like i said just follow their feeding schedule but work your way up to the full recommended dose

I just skimmed but do you mean distilled water for your regular watering. It is expensive compared to RO. RO vs distilled as a choice to water. Most use RO.

ya i think i have some on here one sec and ill try finding them in my pics, lost alot of old grows when a hard drive fried during a storm. but the pics i have are of a small 2 plant closet grow i did about 2 years ago. one sour purple og clone which is pictured in one of my grow journals on here with the strawberry cough. you can see how bad it looked in the pic when i first got it and what i turned it into in the pics ill try finding. those strawberry coughs were started on emerald but i had to get rid of em all bc a couple were males and the rest hermied on me it was a bagseed grow that didnt work lol. the second plant in there was an auto flower it was a heavy weight fast and vast. ill try finding these pics and get bavk here to post em for you guys

Cool bro. I'll be on the lookout
 
Why would i water her without nutrients?

I water twice a day, 1 gallon each time. she's slowed down her drinking now in flowering but shes still drinking a gallon a day.

give her 200% of her total capacity, nutrient PH controlled water every time u water. the first 100% of what she needs will fill the COCO and mix with the old shit she already picked through and didnt wanna eat any more from, the 2nd 100% will fully replace ur coco and should be a 1/2 gallon runoff each time (if ur doing twice a day 1 gallon each time per 7gal coco pot)

get wut i mean? sorry I got my afterwork blaze goin and its hard to focus

this is how i run my coco/perlite mix as hydro.
