    Storing water

    Getting tired of mixing nutes every time. So I am thinking bit like with the wilma system. Just mixing the nutes up and storing say a weeks worth of water at a time. With the Wilma system I used an air stone. Anyway going forward I am going to be using softer water and sure I read an air stone...

    Coco issue

    Only thing I can think this is being is a ph issue? Possibly and likely the ph pen being wrong. New one has been ordered. Is it just a case of giving the plants a heavy feed with the same amount of nutes and with a correct ph? The leaves have started growing slightly twisted and new growth is...

    Mutant leaves

    Two plants I’ve got growing, look ok other than the fact both have some mutant looking leaves. New growth seems to be okay. When I see mutant leaves I think ph issue. Have calibrated the pen to be sure and also feeding a few seedlings which all look fine. Maybe it was just slightly out and...

    Overwatered or nitrogen toxicity

    Hi people, I watered two plants and noticed an instant change in their appearance. So it would make you think over watering right? Well they are both in coco and one with perlite. Also they was watered previously at different times, hours apart. So the weight of them both was different. In fact...

    Coco roots…again ffs

    Growing in pure canna coco coir. always noticed my veg time was slow compare to my mates. He would come over and see my plants n tell me to water them. Doing so mine would go over watered. I was needing mine to be bone dry basically as was packing down the coco to much. He gave me some well...

    Piss poor roots in coco

    I know everyone says don’t let coco every dry out like soil and I haven’t done. So much so that one plant even looked over watered from being watered every other day and is now binned. Some have said at first you should let the pot get light? Any ideas on why the roots look so poor? They are...

    Unhappy looking

    got some plants here which are youngish, been in these small pots for about two weeks now. They aren’t looking good at all and can’t be sure as to why. I’m thinking the yellow leaves are hunger rather than anything else? They was getting 1ml of canna coco a&b per litre. EC pen broke and then...

    Finding mothers

    Grown for years now and have to say I’ve found most plants end up just quite average. I could probably buy better stuff, as I’m guessing the dealers I know are buying from people who are just running their keepers or bought clones. Rather than just popping a packet of seeds every time. At times...

    reoccurring N toxicity

    Had a bit of N toxicity but nothing major. Just knew it was that by the clawing leaves. Anyway flushed with a light feed and the issue went away, leaves started looking normal. Slowly got the feed back up a bit and plants was looking fine. Just increased the feed by 0.2ml per litre and not...

    Coco potting up

    Just wondering what others thoughts are on this. More than one person has told me they do similar. When transporting into a new pot with coco. I know every article says water until run off. Doing that though I often find the pots stay heavier for longer than I would like? I know you can over...

    Coco watering

    Proper basic stuff and know no doubt has been covered plenty of times but hear me out. I got given some cuts and shoved them in some small round pots n watered to run off. Week later plants are up and can see a few roots. Go and visit my friend who got the same cuts at the same time. His blow...

    Cuttings

    Got given some cuttings that came rooted in rockwool. Potted them up into small pots of coco. Shoved them under the 400w hps. All was looking well but tonight noticed 3 plants looking droopy. Only had 1 watering till run off so knew was over watering. Pots was still heavy though. Took them out...

    Nitrogen toxicity

    Got plants in veg which are dealing with nitrogen toxicity. Was too keen with the feed when they was young. I lowered the feed but still aren't looking lighter and have clawed leaves. Will just a one flush fix the problem? How long after will I see an improvement? Going to flush them then...

    Starving plants

    Potted up and went into pots too big so took over a week for the pots to get dry enough for another watering. Have since set up the Wilma system so they can be getting drip fed daily. I know a week without feed probably shouldn't see them turn so pale but guess the original feed I played it too...

    Hunger maybe?

    Some young plants started to get lower leaves looking pale. End up going yellow then looking burnt or as if its eaten itself I guess. The ph pen I checked and it was slightly out. Calibrated it and so that's correct now. They was being feed an ec of 1 have since increased that to 1.1. Highest I...

    Ph pen

    Just wondering how often do you guys calibrate your pen? Just checked mine as noticed some young plants was looking a bit yellow on the lower leaves. Thought it could be hunger but for their size they are getting plenty. Checked the pen with some buffer 7 and got a reading of 6.8. Thinking will...

    Air

    Sure I have asked before but just got a harvest that I am not happy with. Have to be honest I am not sure if its me or This harvest plants didn't smell really that much. If you touched them and smelt your fingers it smelt a bit sweet. Nothing like I've had in the past though with some other...

    Light and plant numbers

    Am I right in my line of thinking that plants absorb light. So less plants means more light for each plant? I know it can be worded more scientific. Also 6 plants under a 600w doesn't mean they all get the same light due to positioning and what not. Just would 6 plants under a 600w grow faster...

    Droopy leaves

    For some reason my plants seem to be going droopy after looking nice and perky. Only young seedlings not even shown their sex yet, in 6litre coco. Watering them 2litres of water and next day and couple days after they are looking nice and perky. Now I'm tempted to say it's the plants being...
