Day 112

What is everyone’s opinion here. I have issues with overwatering. Was hoping tons of perlite in the coco would help w that…pretty over growing in coco at this point…thinkin about letting her dry out almost completely. She smells insane right now and I don’t want to lose her.

Agree with Mick. That plant isn't going to do well if you flip to 12/12 now with those extreme deficiencies. If the roots have totally filled out the pot, you simply can't "overwater/overfeed" in coco. Lots of people feed 5/6 times per day. The dry nutrients are the problem. What I would do is mix up some 1 EC nutrients ph to 5.8 and then feed to 30% runoff twice per day-the goal being to flush out the fertilizer you have in there already. Do not flush with plain water! The goal here is to flush while you feed. If you do that twice per day you might get lucky and flush that stuff out before it breaks down and overfertilized your plants. Good luck! And next time stick with a 1 or 2 part complete fertilizer like Jacks, Maxibloom, or Megacrop.

Yeah I’m switching to living soil after this. And honestly I’ve had this plant a while and I loved training it etc. but I’m not flushing out another plant. I’d rather ride it out till death than deal with running water through it and PH and using nutes etc.

It was transplanted into fresh nutrients and medium (3gal to 7gal) on 7/18. I went on vacay two weeks ago and top dressed before I left and watered in with a tea. Now thinking about it maybe there IS too much food in there. But it’s slow release so I was trying to stay ahead of the curve lol. Oh well.
