I’m no expert by any means, just a curious observer. Are they in coco coir? What do you intend to be feeding protocol? What kind of light do you have them under? What’s the light cycle? How long do you intend to veg? My philosophy is to emulate nature where possible but indoors it be tricky

Yeah, they’re in coco. Right now I have them under 100w LED, 24 hours on. I was planning on growing them until they were big enough to clone, throwing the originals into flower just to sex them, and then just flowering out the clones as soon as they root to keep them small. I’ve been blasting them with full strength (1.2 ec) feeds from the beginning. I started growing them like I would any other plant, but now that I’ve been reading more, it seems like some landraces can be more sensitive to lights and nutes. I can’t do anything about the light, but I’m wondering if I should cut back on the feeds now, or just keep going until there’s a problem
Nothing in my plans is set in stone, I’m always willing to take in new information and learn something new

Yes they are more sensitive to nutes. From what I’ve seen lots of landrace growers use well amended soil ewc and more natural nutes bone meal, blood meal… That said obviously lots use nutes, me included, and all the advice I’ve received said to start at 1/4 strength nutes with landrace. I’m no expert and only growing a couple of years but I read a lot and ask lots of questions.

Yeah, I don’t know if I’ve seen anyone run any landraces in coco or any kind of hydro setup. I use the nute manufacturers recommended amount x.4 so I’m hoping that’s diluted enough
I know I don’t comment much if any on your grows, but I’ve been watching and they look great. You’re proof that you don’t need years of experience to grow beautiful plants. Your questioning and reading has really paid off. Thanks for commenting

Sounds like a good plan. Stay at the nute level you are at now, so long as they like it.
Go easy on N. Too much causes hermies.

They definitely didn’t like that nute level. I cut back to 1/4 strength as recommended by @420noob and the new growth looks much better
