Coco 3 week old in trouble

zafabafa said:

Ok, any idea what ppm would be safe?


Outside but under a roof at night. It had dropped below 50 at night this week.

Last time they grew to 3 ft had no nute problems only some pests. decent yield with terrible weather.

Cut nutrients in half and start from there see how it responds

It's illegal here and my wife wont let me do it.

outdoor is legal if I keep it under 5 plants

Hahaha. That is funny, stupid weed laws are so funny. I live in California, here it is ILLEGAL to grow it outside (public nuisance ) but it is LEGAL to grow inside as long as 12 plants or less. Funny.

build yourself a little hoop house , put a couple of outdoor rated lights in it to keep it warm at night, and stop them from flowering till its actually time.

I hear you, that's gotta be so frustrating. Well, what I would do is switch to soil and build the simplest of green houses to get them cozier. I've only used coco as a minor ingredient, but am aware of the properties and would bet it's making your outdoor grow more difficult than could be. I'm thinking maybe your root zones, in the dead of night, the water has drained away, less insulation for roots and maybe they get a couple chilling hours each night it takes the whole day to try to recover from... Either way, if you planted in soil, and built the simplest $30 greenhouse, blocks the wind, raises the humidity, keeps warmer through night. Soil will be a better buffer than coco. hell, throw a couple lights in the green house.

Or if you really want to stick to coco, you could put a heater on a timer in the green house to only run 4 or five hours at night.. You just need to give them a more comfy environment. Cannabis adapted to harsh climates and developed the resins and traits that really get unlocked when grown in ideal environments. But your nights dip, you don't get consistent sun,and they are in an artificial media they would not encounter or be able to survive in in nature, artificial medium tailor made for artificial light, artificial climate, know what I'm saying? big difference between coco in an 85 degree room running 18 hours light, co2, and a constant drip of nutrients, and a yellow sprouting freezing it's ass off in a cup of coco... It's a delicate combo asking a lot. Those puppies are stressed out. I would just try to give yourself as many buffers as possible. If you have some good seeds and just plant them in soil, green house, these comfort things, I bet your plants and you will be so much less stressed and you'll have more fun.

Im back!

So things are going great! saturday I gave them a 850 ppm feeding because I thought thy were underfed. Did this before I asked you guys for help.

After your help I then started foliage feeding them my 4-0-0 cal/mag and that perked them up in 1 day. Root problems? lock out? I dont know but it did wonders.

Weather was crap again, hardly any real sun.

Then tuesday they were pretty dry so I started my 250 ppm canna A+B feed, its doing great Today another feed of 250 ppm. Runoff is still a tad high but the plant looks amazing, growing VERY fast.

I want to thank you guys for your help, I think my crop is saved for now
