using canna terra pro soil, quick few questions on it.

ive just potted up in the final pots with canna terra pro soil and there will be in veg for aboutanother week and i was wondering when i switch to 12/12 when would i start using flowering nutes i.e canna flores boost, pk and i got some hammer head any one done a grow or no anything on this subject.

Stick with the VEGA for around 2 weeks after switching to 12:12.

The high N formula of the vega will keep your plants healthier during this transition phase.

After the 2 week stretch you can switch to the FLORES.


I would however recommend going to the CANNA website and using their nutrient calculator for your chosen nutrient line.


This will allow you to input your mix container size for ml per litre or gallon etc.


It will then give you a break down of each week what to put into your water.


Its only a guide though and plant responses should be something you look for to see if you're running too strong or weak on your nutes etc.

the thing is ive used it and done the same thing 2 year ago and i carnt remember wot i did, but i remember towards the end there was still loads of green in the plant i.e leafs at 7-8 weeks in the flush period, so i was thinking there was way to much N in the soil as i never got no yelllow leafs to show me the break down. this is why i was asking about the nutes with this soil as i was thinking i did something wrong

Green leaves at harvest time IMO is a good thing. Yellow or multi coloured leaves = stress and deficiencies. This ultimately ends up with a loss in yield.

I use a 6-3-8 CANNA AQUA VEGA from start to finish. Lovely green healthy plants at harvest time.

Alot of people seem to think that yellow leaves during flowering is perfectly normal. Yes it is if you aren't feeding everything the plant requires. If your nutrient profile is complete then the plant has everything it needs to try and maximise its potential.
