Canna is canna, it’s not missing anything. It’s meant to be applied to fertilized fast drain/dry soil with generous run off to waste.

If anybody wants to know how to grow better cannabis with canna I’ll give you the step by step. Remember it like yesterday. 5x5 sour diesel 4 plants 1000w hps and resulted with about 12-13os of dry/cured sour(not citrus) diesel as a first time grower that just got gifted some cuttings from a friend in Florida which died from a stab wound to the heart.

Person that taught me canna was an old friend I reconnected with in college, after they dodged life without parole. It was a decent living to grow small batches when it was common 400+ for some good indoor. They grew a BK/DC and it tested in the 30s, that was maybe like ‘08. I used their same method in 2012 for the sour(not citrus) diesel.

Quality soil blend of ocean forrest, peat moss, coco, perlite. watered with grow big, bio flores, molasses and pk13/14 that’s all the sauce you need for a quality smoke.

I'm on my sixth or seventh grow trying to dial it in so I would love a step by step. But before I waste your time, is it even possible to do using only RO Water, the full BioCanna line of nutrients (BioRhiz, Bio Veg, Bio Flores, Bio Boost) and the BioTerra Plus medium? That's all I've been doing.

Sorry I’m new. 2.5 gallon pots. Bioterra plus. Marshydro FC6500. I seem to be having the same issues every grow even when I switch up grow schedule or water every second, third, etc time instead of feeding every other time. This time has been feed every time which seems to have delayed these issues by a few weeks. In the end, I always end up with great buds but the plants never seem super happy. I’d love to see them super happy until the end and I refuse to give up. My garden is all vegan everything and I try to stay OMRI ( I know Bioboost doesn’t carry the label but I’ve heard Canna’s response to that and it’s still vegan which is what I care more about).

I’m open to any thoughts comments and concerns. I’ve tried using organik promix as well.

I wonder if I’m not letting them dry out enough between water/feed? I typically go by weight but I also don’t want the soil to totally dry out so it’s always a ? for me even after all these years.

Great thread. Lots of things I’d forgotten despite more than 20 years using Canna.
I started growing my own in 2004. Grow shops were just beginning to pop up and I went with the grow shop guys recommended which was Canna. I used the hydro nutes and the Terra over the years and never had anything but great results.
I regard Cannazyme as invaluable. Without it, I would have lost mothers.
Currently got Nevilles Haze on Aqua Flores in Aero.

I love that you’re so committed to vegan and organic products! Maybe experiment with the watering schedule a bit
