All of the babies got some water at 1100ppm on the 500 scale, hope itâs not too much, coco is proving tricky to learn, i have been giving them 40% then 60% and now 100% strengh in their waterings, doing one watering of 650mL every other day. You are not supposed to let coco dry out like you do soil, for what i have read and heard. One is not supposed to treat coco like soil, just because you pot itâŚ
Alien Rift and Lemon Garlic OG in the one gallon pots, Super Lemon Haze in the little pots, soaking in the nute water.
Thanks for all your advice and time put into my grow brothers!

What are the yellow things on the 2 plants in the foreground?

Sprinklers from the lawn, the ones you hook up your hose to so it spreads water evenly in a misty way⌠HAHAHAHA
I use them on the tray to place fabric pots on top so they donât absorb any run off water from the tray itself, where it all ends. I then get rid of the water and thatâs it. I wish i could save the nutes, like a reservoir of some kind, a recirculating setup would be great, it is my believe that by hand watering the coco with the nute water i am wasting a lot of money on nutes.
I gotta say as a cob guy, youâve gotta let the plant decide its distance.
I can understand why but in all my grows under led lifting the light or lowering the plant 3 to 5 inches all but eliminated early nute deficiencies.
I think its the concentrated spectrum.
Its seems like The plant canât uptake nutes as fast as its using them.
Never had that problem with hps or mh.
Good hunting!

I think this is where the myth that LEDs get Mg deficiencies. Itâs the increased growth rate. I think my best grow (gpw wise) was when I had the least amount of light.

Absolutely! I had my soil at toxic levels of MG for a long time because of that.
A buddy said âtry lifting the lightsâ over on another forum. I was at my wits end and nothing to loose and BOOM! Plant shot back after raising 8 inches.
From 16.
Iâve seen top buds stop developing and even bleach at 12 inches.

I got my lights running at 400W, temp 28C and RH @ 60% aprox. Distance from canopy about 20".
24 plants; 12 Alien Rift, 12 LGOGxSF and 2 SLH. Nutes were given @ 1100 ppm (scale 500) or 2.0EC.
They are 29 days old and i was running them wrong. As if they were in soil (not giving any nutes for the first weeks), reason why they were withering and getting yellow and stunted. But everything has been corrected and luckily they are looking healthy now. Will update more pics tomorrow.

Pretty high but depends on the nutrient, but its best to do a change then wait 4-5days to see how they respond and then adjust accordingly.
If i ran at those ppm id be burning my plants, but everyone is different.

When i mix the Technaflora Nutes in the water and then check for EC, that is what it comes to, according to the schedule in the box.
USA2009.pdf (1.4 MB)
2.2 EC would be too high for me too. Let us know how it goes. Iâve been running a lot of low EC water through by plants about once a month and have had good results. If I donât I get build up that leads to problems.

Says you can feed every watering at that concentration, so yeah run as is and see how it goes, and adjust accordingly.
I see that technaflora stuff around but mind you they are somewhat local.

Looks like they recommend a schedule of Feed, Water, Water, Feed for soil-less media. That would explain the high dosage. Kind of weird, why not Feed, feed, feed, feed, feed, etc at lower concentration? Any ideas? I guess the leaching with plain water takes care of salt build up issues.
They bring instructions in both French and English, so i would say QuĂŠbĂŠcois!?
These are the nutes that i used for the Challenge and the plants came out really nice! The smoke is great, those were grown hydro in perlite/hempy cups.
This time it will be the Technaflora nutes for all the plants, and my autos will be grown in 1 gallon hempy cups filled with coco chips.
Check it outâŚ
Check this video out, the guy during the recording says he did the plant on a 5 gallon hempy cup with cocoâŚ

No but the two languages is because they just like any other product with ingredients or directions is mandated to include both official languages if sold within the country, they donât have to comply with that for export, but if you already have them printed up no sense in changing them.
