Help!! What’s growing on with my babies ? the one is coco/perlite has the rusted edges and the other is in happy frog, I’ve only added some cal mag and ph distilled about 6.2 to the one in HF, the one with the rusted edges in coco did i add too much nutes? Or is it a deficiency because i forgot to add the A & B two park Canna Coco nutrients for pre buffered coco

How can anyone know if you added to much nutes when you don't say how much you fed them?

Looks WAY different than what Mephisto says it should. There is 1 just like it though on AFN today. Tall, thin but smaller yeild rather than short and bushy. I kind of want to do 10 of these if this is how they turn out.

If I would have known that they would really be like this i would have dropped the whole pack!!! It looks like that cause the light was soooo far away from it... Look at this Skywalker x Fruity Pebbles auto,it stretched out crazy too!!! But look at the leaves on this plant!!! Dark green and tiny!!!15679695349582217639446492603154.jpg 15679696747052776085154122515225.jpgI'm gonna leave it til the leaves are dead cause it needs all the time that it can get!!!

How old are they and that is per gal of water even though you didn't use the whole gal on them? It could be a bit much if less than 2-3 weeks and they definitely look like 10 days or so.

Popped through on the 24th, 15 days, i actually poured the whole gallon through and got about 10/20% runoff, PH was good, ppm maybe just above 3 or 400

When did you do this feeding? I would flush it with plain ph water 5.8-6.0 is on point for coco and than start a new feed with 1/2 of that for 1-2 feeds so they can rebound than they will be ready for a full dose. Coco does best when watered regularly(1-2 times a day) so if the nutes are too much you'll not be watering much and they will suffer. It's not like soil and supposes to be watered 4-5 days inbetween except when a baby. By 3 weeks you should give it a feed every day so the coco gets fresh nutes and oxygen to the roots.

Here i am in coco, 6" plastic pots using 2 ml cal mag and 4 grams Mega Crop per gal at 3 weeks. When i start a plant i pre feed 2 ml cal mag and 2 grams Mega Crop the night before the seed goes in. I plant seed straight in coco. No soak, cubes, paper towels. She breaks coco in 3 days and when she has 1st real set she gets feeding #2 same amount. 5 days later #3 feeding 2 ml cal mag(this stays the same every feed the whole grow) and 3 grams MC. 5 more days same feeding and by around days 18-21 she gets full strength at 2 ml cal mag and 4 grams Mega Crop every feed. My point is pre soak is 1/4, than another at 1/4 than 1/2 and full going 4-5 days inbetween each feed untill 3 weeks she's got 5 nodes and rocking.

I've never done it like that... When I hand feed I always feed more and more often... My plants in pots have caught up and passed the plants in my autopots!!! So if I had them all in regular pots they would probably be even bigger!!! We're going to find out that's for sure!!!

I would just feed lite for a few feeds. Don't not feed because coco needs the nutes and you don't want coco to dry out like soil than it builds up salts and can get lockout for nutes. You'll be solid just feed a bit lite but still regularly.

Sativa Haze Auto About 10 days old from popping through the coco/perlite, i may have added the coco a&b nutes in the water and diluted it about 80% when i first planted the seed into the final pot. After i have given it nothing but Poland Spring water. I feel like it’s suppsed to be bigger, i added myco to the roots but i dug out half of one side and powdered some in and covered it back up. The next set of leaves are coming in but i have another seedling in happy frog the next set has grown in already a bit more, but is still about the same size. Does anyone think i messed up or am i good i just tried adding 1/4 nutes to the one in coco. I have a total of 3 planted, two in coco/perlite 1 in happy frog, the coco and happy frog are the same strain i wanted to test out what i liked more since this is my first grow, i have a 600w LED (pulls 270w) 2x3 tent, 4in exhaust, humidifier, at 70rh, 70-80degrees. 2 fans circulating air.

Just stick with them. I was where you are esrlier this week. Too small! Look at everyone else's! What's wrong?
It's 14 days and they look completely different. The last 3 days they started growing. Im in water only organic soil, Detroit Nurient Company water only soil. So no messing with nutes for me.

Where did you read to not feed for 3 weeks in coco? Coco has zero nutrients in it and needs to be fed often and early to have healthy plants.

I'm guessing he confused autos in organic water only soil. That's what I was told by many, wet your pots down, then plant. Don't water for the next two weeks other than maybe a little on the surface. I use a small spray bottle and spray in a circle about 2-3" from the seedling. Make the roots search for the water, and it keeps from over watering and smothering the baby roots. that's the theory at least. Seems ok so far.
