Hello. Im running a 20 plant coco setup and im almost 4 weeks into flower and i have 5 plants that preflowered hard, but show NO buds even though the other 15 are budding really good now. I have 3 strains, Purple Bud, Blueberry and Gelat.OG. Neither Gel or BB are flowering along with 2 of the...

Ok. I will add some next grow. Other than this I'm extremely happy with coco and the canna nuted

Honestly I went to the hydro store and the guy whose helped me multiple times said i just wasnt feeding enough because I was at 450ppm. I upped to 600 and now 700 and they are doing really well except this problem. I didn't add anything but more canna a +b and it got rid of the problems I was...

Heres a small update. Babies have been doing pretty good but theres a little problem im having on a few leaves of a few plants. Anyone have any idea whats going on? My nutes should be on point at 700ppm fed from two 2gph drippers for 3 minutes 3 times a day(just switched from 2 times a day...

Yea I thought about drip rings. Im probably gonna switch to rings next time with 4 1gph droppers. The coco wicks the water like crazy. I think I need to run perlite too next time. It stays moist a little too long.

Glad i could help! This is my first time in coco or hydro so im still learning everyday.

For my grow i bought 2 6 pot add ons (http://www.greenspirithydro.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=62&product_id=200) for a hydro system. I used about 100 ft of 1/2 soft poly tubing for both the feed and drain lines. My drain just runs through a hole in the floor and out the side of my...

Sure. I'll post in a few hours when I get home. This is my first time doing hydro and coco btw. I absolutely love both. I can say it cost about 1100 for everything minus the lights.

Just curious, how do you guys water? Im curious as to the most common size dripper (.5gph, 1 gph, 2 gph) as i think im going to switch to a poly tube ring with 3 2gph drippers so it spreads the water out more rather than 1 dripper in the middle.

Heres some pics of my coco top feed drain to waste setup. The red reservoir is my fresh RO'ed water which i then pump into the green and fill with nutes.

I got that. But being new to coco Im a unsure of how dry is too dry. Its a little strange for me to water them while the coco still looks dark and moist since im so used to soil...

Ok. Ill grab some calimagic and micronutes tomorrow at my hydro shop. My plants have been in the coco for 10 days now so Im still letting the coco dry some, hence the every other day waterings. Once I switch to flowering should I start feeding once a day then up it as necessary?

Ahhhh. Ill have to grab some Saturday from tthe hydro store. I hear Calimagic is pretty awesome too. Should i get something with all micronutrients or just concentrate on the Cal and mag? Jesus, and i thought i did all my research....

Yes, im using RO water.

Also what the hell is this white stuff? This is straight coco, no perlite. Is it salt build up or something? Its on the top of all the coco.
