Help....Canna Coco and nutes?

[shegrows]

What is your ph and ec level? No coco cant be overwateret, ive you watering 10x a day oke, but not ive you make it 2-3 a day. I grow with 25l pots with coco, from 1l pots to 25l, the plants in 1l looks like plants in 3l soil, i know what i am speaking about, and my plants always look good because i make it how i said. You have to wait befor you water all day. what to you wanna water, roots or coco?Your plants hasn't rooted wl, ive you tack it out the coco you will se brown roots, dont water know and wait that the coco is a bit dry befor you water, make this for 1-2 weeks. Few questions:

Which ec/ph level has your nutrient? How much watt you use?

roots are nice and white.. beautiful root growth.. looks good.. just not completely filling up the pots.. but they are jamming.. I feed 5.8-6.2 range.. as I was told to with this coco . I like to keep it around 6... sometimes ill feed 5.9 . sometimes 5.8. sometimes 6 .. I was told keeping a range keeps plants healthier.. as diff nutes are absorbed at diff rates?..

is this the brand of coco you are using? lots of good info there... http://www.cannagardening.com/videos/watering_plants_how_and_how_often

if its canna coco .. I'm not using the terra.. just the coco


but ya I'm watering tonight.. just letting the mix oxygenate more before I go water this time

has anyone ever tried putting a airstone inside each pot?

are you checking the PH of that water before you feed with it ? cuz you know adding air to a standing rez will make the PH climb .

air stone in a pot? brother, you are going wayyy to over board with this.

Until you know your ppms i would say that is your issue,

Are you using the Calimagic at the rated 4ml per gallon? I always use that rate, and I usually mix 5 gallons at a time so 20 ml period.

Another thing is the coco can go either dry as fuck, or stay moist, the difference in being able to do either or is when you have innoculated the coco with microbes.

I recommend you use 1 table spoon of OG Tea per 5 gallons of nutrient mix.

Also if you are doing 6/9 I would mix a 3 gallon or 4 gallon rate with your 5 gallons since you wanna use additives like hygrozyme, and if you innoculate, some carb source for the coco root army

coco is soooo easy. Stay with a consistent mix, always mix your silica in first, also the smaller containers are easier to manage with coco after transplanting. In the future I would wait until that entire 4 gallon or 5 gallons of coco has lost 65% + of its water weight.

Cannabis loves oxygen and her roots can tolerate a dry period, its a very drought tolerant plant under the right conditions, and very vigorous, always comes back from wilt, even close to perma wilt.

In my hydroponic experience, I was able to grow 2 oz plants in 6x6x6 square plastic containers, feeding 8 times per lights on just be sure to have your support for the plant proper.

With coco 2 gallon pots and 3 gallon pots are probably the biggest you want to go, unless you are growing a mother, I don't think 5 gallons is needed unless you are vegging for a long time and doing tree style to keep #'s down. But if I were you I would grow in 2 gallons or 3 gallon smart pots and use compost teas and bennies all day.

yup , same problem here !!! cloning just isn't fuckin working ! had to throw 4 moms in the tent to help fill it up , sux , but what can ya do !!!

Check out the air layering thread. It saved my ass. I was having zero luck cloning lately...like 1 in20 rooting. Good luck with the coco issues, out sounds like Dan is pin the right track.

ya I check it right before.. I start watering.. lastnight I phed to 6 on the dot.. and tested ph coming out .. was 6.4 at first.. then came down to 6 as I flushed.. took 3 hours to flush 30 plants because I didn't want them sitting in the tent collecting shit other plants spit out.. so I did it all in the shower .. allowing shit to properly drain before putting back in the tent..

 

[dansbuds]

that should really help .

Dude i see your problem, how high is the ph when the water comes out of the thing lol, don't know the name, this thing in your bad or kitchen. I always let my water stay for a day and then i use it, i don't water all day, ive they don't need it. Then the roots growing faster because they are searching for water and nutes, then the air also can better enter in the medium. Do you always had 20% drainage out of the pot? At the first time i use coco i had the same problems.because i made to much with my babys.

Ph 5.8-6.2 is good (5.5-6.4 i also use for the nutries ive i enter to much ph down and i won't make it new, ive this is 1time and then with normal ph level it don't make anything, it hasen't to be 6.2 or 6.0, take it easy, the first coco grows would be perfect)

too much cal/mag?

too much cal/mag?

i just started growing in coco, i was told to stop adding calimagic @4ml/gal altogether because the cocotek GH nutes already have enough, the pic shows what i was told to be too much calimagic, it looks kind of similar to some of the pictures you posted, but lock out seems to be happening as well in some of them too. alot of people talk about high P levels locking out uptake of N in coco.

pic shows early stages of what i was told is too much calimagic

hope it helps, the "burning" got a bit worse, and even showed up on another plant a few days later, but has stopped, so im pretty sure in my case the plant was getting too much calcium or magnesium

ok.. so it looks like it was a ph or underfed problem.. because after the flush and feed.. the new growth looks good.. the drooping is slowly going away on every plant... things are taking off again... giving them another 3 days.. and flipping into flower as I don't want them to overgrow the room and be a fucking mess ..

anyone know where that strange yellow green glossy look comes from? i have that going on with a few leaves here and there. the spotting too. it reminds me of the look of an old house plant. im adjusting my cal/mag and feed schedule and it appears to be helping.

its my first grow, im not expecting perfection. working on a perpetual, so its only going to get better

stopped feeding cal mag, dropped back to 3ml/gal Cocotek A+B, 5 drops Floralicious Plus.

Lryc c has it. Try foliar feed with two tablespoons a gallon of Epsom salts. My new coco always did that to me if I didn't foliar with mag sulfate. imo.

This is kind of a thread hijacking. You should start a new one.
