Hey guys!
I recently started my newest coco / perlite grow. Here are my infos first of all:
- Canna Coco Pro Plus 70 / 30 Perlite
- 1L Fabric starter pots
- Canna Coco nutrient line (A+B, Rhizo, Cannazym), Sensi Calmag, GH PH Down
- Apera PH20 PH Reader
- Dechlorinated tapwater @ 0.35EC
- MarsHydro FC3000
- Inline smart fan, 2 environment fans
- 76-78°F / 60-65% humidity day
- 68-70°F / 65-70% humidity night
- 18/ 6 schedule
So my 3 newest seedlings (same strain / breeder) were germinated with the papertowel method, then put into pre-soaked soil with a 0.5EC nutrient solution with CalMag & Canna A+B. Only around 0.15EC of nutrients though, as my tapwater already has 0.35EC.
They came out the substrate just fine, but suddenly one of them started drooping SEVERELY and turned yellow on the tips. I watered daily with 0.5EC @ 5.7-6.0 PH, always changing a bit.
Now a few days later, two of them are stunted, they don’t grow a lot in size, while the third seedling seems fine, but the leaves are a bit wonky. The other two are yellowing from the outside inwards, and the leaves are drooping. The tips of one of the two smaller seedlings are also starting to “crumple” up, and I’m just insanely scared as to what’s going on here. They are my last seeds.
I then fed, as recommended by Canna, with an EC of 1.1, but it just seems too high for some reason. I don’t know if this will help in any way, or just worsen everything. Am I maybe watering too much? Are they too small to be watered daily in 1L fabric pots?
I also made a huge mistake when checking PPFD. It was at around 280PPFD by my phone, but later on it turned out that it was actually around 380PPFD as my lense was obstructed slightly. I now lowered the PPFD to around 250.
Can someone help me please? What’s going on here? Some images:
