Is my seedling over watered?? HELP!!

[The Gram Reaper]

Always use feed, water evenly until run off, and don't let the plant sit in still water. You will get good growth.

I use the GH trio with calmag and use 1/4 of what GH recommends on their drain to waste feed chart.

@Grower610 There's one now.

edit: I also loosely follow Budzbuddha's FFOF thread - simple and it works.

24 inches with an led light even though its a blurple might be to close for a seedling maybe raise it up another half foot../..idk play with it .. I use t-5 bulbs for my cuts.


microbes and kelp are two things you could stand getting.

cocco is like hydro you have to water it daily or every other day from what I understand about it I dont grow in it. and just water around the base of the plant like an inch around it dont go dumping water right at the base. for right now till it gets going.

A little veg nutes at about 100 ppms and a tad bit of kelp with a pinch of microbes and it should grow ........if the light isnt messing with it.

go on the y-tube and look up all the harley smith videos and watch them a dozen times

Thanks for the Info I’ll definitely take a look at the harley smith vids.What brands do you recommend for microbes and kelp? I currently feed with calmag and general hydroponics 3 part nute system(bloom,micro,grow)

Thanks for the response.That’s exactly what I’m currently using

Ok I see a 600 algood I started with a 600wat philzon and I think I'm doing ok but I've got 3 philzonView attachment 4695253View attachment 4695254and two tents LoL as always thank you for your time

Wow beautiful plants and awesome set up

Thanks for that you will get there do a lot of reading and try to have fun with it as always thank you for your time and the best of luck

I like the raw brand but just get the bloom microbes if you go that route as the bloom and veg is about the same no use buying two different products.

kelp bio bizz makes a good kelp. I think im using general hydroponics kelp now though i dont remember....I think as long as its cold processed or something like that you should be good with any kelp.

 

[Grower610]

Again - I haven't measured. I'd love to though, recommend a cheap meter?

But, I'm not exaggerating - we used to scrub the showerheads & faucets constantly.
Now we scrub the faucets, but the showerheads just get crusty inside and clog; so we get cheapos.

I just moved to socal from Vegas but in Vegas it’s also crazy hard

I really liked RAW brand but it was costing me a lot to run it in hydro.

Even at the plants young age or should I wait until it’s slightly more developed/bigger?

dont know how big your set up is but I used to just dip out a couple of gallons out of my res after I did a water change and after I did a flood (ebb and flow) and just hand watered the top of the pots like a cup and let that sit till the next watering. and everything at the top wouldnt get washed away in the next watering seemed to help some. Nice fuzzy roots at the top of my root ball.

My understanding is that microbes dont do much in hydro like they do in soil but the do buff up the roots and keep root rot away.

this way im not trying to inoculate a big rez with an air stone just the pots once a week or every water change I would top feed my plants with microbes added in

Thank you again I greatly appreciate it

What size pot? Use a pint for every gallon. It won't send its root out if the only food and water is at its base.

 

[The Gram Reaper]

Really dry pots might need more than a pint. You don't want your medium to fully dry out when using coco, it leads to root death fast.

 

[Dilago]

You can hardly over water cannabis if you ask me. Judging from the drought on the surface and the little growth for twelve days, i'd say this seedling is dying of thirst.

It’s a 3 gallon fabric pot

I used recharge for a while when my grow environment was bad, it kept the plants growing through heat stress. I don't use it anymore though, its gunky.

When using their bloom mix, it was costing me like 15$ a reservoir per week. It seems it would be great as a top feed, I loved the growth it gave.

Try 3 pints, water slow and evenly, use feed not straight water. The three pints might not make runoff with how dry your medium is, but just try that for now. You have to take a little risk or your plant will stay pet size.

I watered very heavily a couple day ago and I got the same symptoms very droopy leaves and it looked like it wasn’t growing at all after airing out the coco and making some vent holes by the plant it dried out and perked back up but after watering a day or so later with nutes I got the same results droopy plant and I used less water this time

Water till run off, pH 5.5 and Ec 1.3 and if that doesn't work check the climate.
