This is my first attempt. I’m surprised how much I’m learning. Still on 18/6 want to veg a bit longer before I go 12/12 any tips I’d be glad of the help.
What is with the yellowing of leaves? I believe you maybe rootbound. What size are those pots? Also how often are u watering and do u have a pH meter? Can you fill out a support ticket?
COPY/PASTE the below list into your forum post.
Answer these simple questions the best you can.
If you do not know, or do not use something; Just say so = NA
Strain; Type, Bag seed, or NA
Soil in pots, Hydroponic, or Coco?
System type?
PH of runoff or solution in reservoir?
What is strength of nutrient mix? EC, or TDS
Indoor or Outdoor
Light system, size?
Temps; Day, Night
Humidity; Day, Night
Ventilation system; Yes, No, Size
AC, Humidifier, De-humidifier,
Co2; Yes, No
Also how often are u watering and do u have a pH meter?
@djmyra Keep up on your ph that is the yellowing but there beauty keep doing what your doing if it’s a fabric pot you won’t get root bound 5 gallon are perfect and they look hungry
Ph should be 6.3 a6.8 in soil a meter is a must
They are in magic pots fabric 5 gallon. 2 are Ak47 that’s the one with the yellow on the tips only onthe lower leaves. The other 2 are Aurora haze and one superskunk. 600w led and I added 2 100w grow. I tried mixed mediums as I didn’t know what would work best. I didn’t expect them to all survive tbh:joy: I have a ph pen the ph is at 7 I use spring water. I give them water each day enough to keep the soil moist. They smell pretty good. I’m pumping in fresh air now as I had problems with growth at the beginning. I’m learning a lot from you guys on here thank you
The tent is 100x100x200 600w led I added 2 100w grow bulbs the pots are 5 gallon fabric magic pots. The yellowing Ak47 is in coco only the others in a mixture of soils. I have the fox farm trio and feed once a week. I water lightly every day enough to keep the soil moist. Ph at 7 using spring water. Grown from seeds in small pots first then transferred. I’m totally new to this so I’m very glad of your help
They are 3 gallon pots not 5 sorry
they need food
How often should I feed them?
Once a week (between waterings) is usually sufficent. What brand of nutes are u using. Also as @Hogmaster said. If you’re pH’n for 7 then she isnt getting access to majority of her food. Drop that pH by .5 n watch her EXPLODE
Drop it to 6.5 that would be perfect
Definitely get ph down 6.5 as @Hogmaster and @PurpNGold74 mentioned
And when you feed whats the ppm of the nutrients mix @djmyra
I’m using fox farm trio. I’ve been light handed because I was worried about over feeding. 2 pots are a soil and peat mix and the other 2 are just coco and perlite. I’ll get the sorted and see how they get on. Thanks for your advice I appreciate it
I am using the same FF nutes, and with the good seeds (ILGM Superskunk) I have only been feeding the nutes half-strength when I first introduce a new one - to make sure the plant likes it, then full strength the next time. So far so good, but make sure to water with plain ph 6.5 water in between feedings (every 3-4 days)
Basically like reading the instructions off the FF schedule and doing it. Their customer service is helpful too, and can answer nutrient specific questions just like on here - with more proprietary knowledge based on their specific nutes.
O my! @Hogmaster and @Countryboyjvd1971. Shouldnt for the coco-perlite mix the pH be 5.5-5.9? Im not sure @djmyra but u may have to mix two completely different batches. Either way 7 is too high.
Yes the coco needs to be ph at 5.8- 6.2
pH7 is to high on coco. in soil you have a little “buffer” zone. that’s allows you some mistakes if u feeded to much for exmpl. just check your runn off pH/ec/ppm and you will see what your plant need. i use “water, nutes, water” technique.
That’s a great help. I’m going to reduce ph and pre mix 2 different feeds for the different soils I’m using. Things already looking better. The Ak47 is much greener now. Thanks for the good advice
Looking good brau!! Next time you may want to consider using 5 gal fabric pots as there final home. Are you doing any training yet?
