I would geustimate 8 weeks at least. What are you feeding them, looking a little hungry :love_you_gesture:

ILGM nutrients once a week, everyday giving them a bit of calmag. Should I increase nutrient/calmag?

I closed and deleted your duplicate post.

:point_up_2: this should be included with routine feeding. Soil likes a wet to dry cycle and overwatering will keep their roots too wet to absorb the needed oxygen. Are you feeding to at least 20% run off and testing the PH and PPMs :love_you_gesture:

What do you mean by 20% run off? Also the routine feeding what do you mean by that?
Im still having really hard time understanding the frequency of water and the amounts. When people saying feeding do they mean by water/nutrients or only by nutrients? I just feel like i need someone to explain me how to do things properly lmao :see_no_evil:

20% run off means if you put one liter in ,you want 20% run off=200ml
feeding=nutrients

Thanks a lot, sorry for the noob questions…
so how often do i wanna do 20% run off? Just once to check ph or more often? Do i do the run off with nutes and calmag or just water?
Run off means that i wanna see 1/5 of the water that i gave draining underneath the pot correct?

No worries Growmie, we all started this journey as a 1st time grower. Over watering is frequency related and not the quantity. Depending on the pot size and amount of perlite the n the medium that could be 3-5 days between watering or feeding. I would suggest letting the medium dry over several days and feel the weight of the pot then mix a gallon of nutrients to 1000 PPMs and 6.5 PH and slowly pour this until approximately 1 quart runs out the bottom and catch a sample and test the PPMS and PH. The run off provides 2 purposes…helps rinse the old salts away from the previous feeding maintaining a healthy root zone and also lets you know how much nutrients are in the medium and the PH. Set a target of 1000 PPMs and a PH of 6.5. You’ll need a TDS and PH pen for this :love_you_gesture:
