Coco perlite mix with pebble bottom and top! 70/30 coco mix.
I’m giving canna coco a&b, rhizotonic, cannazym atm. I also have some trace element mix but I don’t know how to use it! I have a lot of more nutes for flower stage to but in this stage that’s what I use. No calmag either

I keep my coco wetter. What EC or PPM are you feeding at?

I have totally soaked them today for the first time! Maybe I should always water to runoff even in the start? And I connected my autopots today too so they will be moist, also have airdomes.
well now you will say that’s why you don’t know, but I have this EC meter COM-80.
when I read my feeding calculator they say like you should have a EC of 1.1. But this meter gives me a siiick high number like over 1000 I donnu how it works!? Is it ppm or EC my tool is meeting. I will go now and check my reservoirs Numbers on my EC meter, 1395 it says! Does it means 1.3/1.4?

Coco should be fed daily to substantial run off.

Thanks a lot! Maybe that’s why my other plants are huuuuge but with small nugs but super super frosty. I will start water more often. Everyone told me before I started the most normal thing to do is over water them so I’ve been kinda afraid to give them to much

You can't over water an established plant in coco.........I feed daily in veg and twice a day in flower.
When you say "water more often"..........I assume you mean feed?
It can measure both. Here's your manual:
Let us know what your numbers mean

Yes ofc feed more often! I have my reservoir connected now so they will be fed all day long. But I still has 2 plants that I water by hand in flower!

Okay I was meeting in this uS mode I will try to convert it. So 1395 uS. should I switch to ppm?It can measure both. Here's your manual:

Oh so my EC is 1.4? In my calculator it says total EC of 1.3 but that’s for “light feeding”It can measure both. Here's your manual:

I’d stay there until they look a little lighter but that’s me.

Okay sounds good to me, but I was right about the uS EC thing? XD 1395 uS = 1.4 EC? I follow the light feeding schedule, when should I move in to normal feeding? I give my lsd auto heavy feeding and they seem to love it, but i need to water more I noticed

Yes the meter reads is microsiemens. EC is usually given is millisiemens. A lot of meters will read in microsiemens as they don't need to add an additional lcd display for the decimal point.
But you had it right on, 1395 μS = 1.395 mS
Also they might look light green under your grow light. Take a picture of them with your grow light off and use your camera flash. I guarantee they look greener. GL.
