Starting again after overpotting

Hi all

I have just had a failed attempt at potting 16 cuttings into 15l pots and overwatered them,,

I have decided to bin those cuts after taking advice off a couple of knowledgeable members as they didn't pull round,

I have now bought some new cuts
Cherry pie I believe

Upto now this is how it goes

Potted into 1.5l pots coco
Received a feed of just canna rhizotonic
At 4ml to 10l of water 5.6 ph and recieved 70ml of water per plant

Sat under adjustable ballast hps running at 250watt roughly two feet away from the tops of the plant

Lights on temp 24.5c
Lights off temp 21c
Photos taken on third day in pot

12inch exhaust
8 inch intake

Two days later (today)

They have dried considerably and I have just gave them a mix of 4ml canna a+b and 5ml rhizotonic per 10l of water 5.6 ph
Then proceeded to give them all
70 ml per plant again

I have done a few grows in the past always struggle in veg but get on fine in flower

Any input would be greatly appreciated
And any one one that could help me with a feeding schedule for veg stage on canna coco nutrients....

Cheers

I'm not really sure what you asking here but they look alright. Lots of mistakes are from overthinking.

My advice would be to let the plants come close to drying out before feeding and watering again. Lift the pot and judge it by how heavy it is, if its light, feed and water, if its still heavy, don't touch them.

Some people got a green thumb and some just don't. My wife kills all the house plants. Me, I don't PH, measure nutes, check trichomes, don't measure temps, or RH. I don't check EC or PPM. Maybe I'm just lucky, I grow nice green plants and adjust on my own thoughts. I've done closet grows, outdoors,greenhouses, warehouses, and basements.

I keep a log for each strain and record the date put in flower. That's really all i do so I can judge about when they should be done.

If I feel the room is hot, dry (indoor), underfed, overfed, I just adjust accordingly. Maybe I'm just a lucky guy. Been growing for decades and seem to be doing something right.

A few things briefly as my last post deleted

Sensitive cuttings need less light, many people will use a T 8 florescent while rooting.
Second, good job ph'ing..in coco I do 5.8.
Third, a heat mat under plants will help stimulate roots.
Forth, tenting with clear plastic or some sort of a cover to maintain relative humidity will help with excessive transpiration...after about 4 days when plants start perking up..gradually remove the cover a few hours at a time..each day..gradually reducing amount of time you have cover on.
Fifth, dont over water coco..you need plant to work to find water..help with stimulatimg roots.
Good luck
