Hello everyone, this is my first time growing im just looking for some advice on npk at specific times of growth
I have a Northern lights autoflower which is approaching the end of week 4 as well as a liberty haze(photoperiod)
I am using a 400watt Duel spectrum HPS lamp on a 18/6 schedule.
The nutrients i am using are the flora trio and also have a plant magic magne-cal+ for deficiencies
I am growing in a 70/30 coco/perlite mix.
The temperatures and humidity are controlled so they are always 65% and between 20-25 lights on/ off
I have just gotten the plants out of a nute lock it seems the coco they were in had already loads of pre dissolved salts. I flushed them through until their EC matched the input feed i was flushing with which was 0.3 EC.
I think im looking too deeply into this but im getting confused. I have only been feeding a 0.3 EC feed since the flush because im scared they will lock up again.
I have noticed that Northern lights has started popping pistols, im no expert but from what i think is this her preflower stage? Others say Autos dont have pre flower stages.
At the moment i am feeding 1.5ml grow, 1ml micro and 1 ml bloom. It is my goal over the next 2 weeks (transition/early flower) to change this order so that there is more bloom than grow. i am aiming to do a 1,2,3 ratio.
My confusion comes from EC am i doing my feed too weak? or should i start increasing the ec slowly ?
Thank you for any response this my seem very long winded i apologize for this, this is my first time using a forum. I will provide pictures when the lights come back on.
