@Budbrother I wasn’t sure who to tag but figured you’ve known a lot of users in the past.
This is my 2nd grow and I’m in coco perlite in 3 gallon fabric pots. I’m growing 3 different autoflowers and I’m having an interesting issue with my Banana Jealousy F3. Here are all three of my ladies and Banana Jealousy is the one with the pistils. I’m on day 19 of Veg and I will admit I haven’t been as attentive to my ladies as I should have been. Any idea why this could have happened? All 3 of these strains are meant to grow in the same environment and they all take around 85 days to grow. They are being fed daily at around 1100 EC 550 PPm 5.9ph. Their environment is in the high to low 60’s through the day and creeps into the 50’s at lights off. I have an oscillating fan on 24/7 as well as an inline fan. These ladies are also under a Mara Hydro SP2000 I believe and are gettting between 350-425 PPFD.
I haven’t began to water until runoff but I will tomorrow. I understand I really need to be checking the runoff in coco daily. I water daily around 1/3 of a gallon per plant using the entire general hydroponics synthetic nutrient line. I add Humic acid, silicon, wetting agent, and a rooting enhancer on top of calmag and a dose of the seedling, veg, and bloom nutrients.
I popped on a heater near the intake vent to increase temps. Hitting about 75 right now lights off with 45% RH. Not sure what I’ll get with lights on but hopefully close to 80+
@ScottsBuds@Abhirambhat1522@Growdoc 5 days later after being properly watered and with temps in the 80’s and high 70’s at night. They are getting around 500-600 PPFD. Now what’s wrong? 2 out of the 3 plants are still droopy and its gotten worse since I took these pictures a few hours ago. The perkiest plant oddly enough has a calcium deficiency I believe. I didn’t feed her anything for it specifically other than her daily feeding of nutes that includes calmag, but I did feed her a slightly higher ph because I understand calcium is best absorbed at closer to 6.2ph. Other than that I got nothing, I’m watering daily until runoff and all my numbers are where they need to be. My runoff numbers are perfect and my environment is pretty good.
I was thinking the same thing but my understanding was coco needed to be watered daily. Should I dial back the amount I feed or feed every other day or something. I feed a half gallon each right now. @OldNailPounder I will give that a try thank you
It’s not the amount at each watering but the frequency of watering. I went coco this grow and I’m only watering about every 3 days as mine are babies but I only water them when pots is light and top of coco just starts to lighten up in color from getting dry. I don’t let the coco get really dry on top, it starts to look mottled with dark and light spots from the moisture. Coco will eventually need to be watered up to 4 times a day, depending on pot size. I will be in 3 gallon bags this grow, I hope to only water once a day in them, but we will see….
