I'm a newbie! Please help me!

Thanks for all the advice guys, lunaticyowie I can’t really find any stores right off in my area that stock cocoa perlite mix and marijuana specific nutrients bc I’m in a rural area of Minnesota and it just recently got legalized here but I found some stuff online that I could order, I’ll attach some pictures of what I found and see if that’s the correct stuff, is it better to get the 70-30 mix or the 50/50 mix of the perlite and are these the nutrients you’re talking about that I should get

Yes we can work with general hydroponics trio. The second image.

Get this and cal mag of the same company.

But what’s your base gonna be. I use Coco and perlite mix. If you use soil it’s gonna get different but people here will help you out.

I just ordered the gp nutrients and Cal mag, what should I order for soil? Like a 50/50 mix or a 70/30 mix of coco perlite potting soil

Coco is good but there is a learning curve. Promix is a good media, I usually grow in it. It’s inert so you control the feeds and ph. Organic soil is more no touch except for watering and occasionally amending. If you go coco, lots of folks are using it with auto pots with success.

Both will work. I’ll go with 50:50.

You’ll also need to check ph and ppm for every feed. This gonna cost a little more. Sorry.

I’m in India I don’t have many option here. So I just know this way. In states you’ll get more options.

Listen to growdoc advice for more options. He is the boss man. :saluting_face::saluting_face:

Gday , I’m new here but not new to growing , When I get a lot of stretching What I do ? OK , raise the light to an absolute maximum like shorten your hangers as much as practicable . Then either weights or super crop (bend the long branches down with weights) or crush the stem at an appropriate spot and bend them over . ( I do this during veg usually ) Too close to the light can cause hermaphrodites or just plain poor quality . Don’t take any of this as gospel , but in my experience this works . Some strains are worse for it than others OG Godfather is very stretchy . As opposed to the very very bushy Blackberry Moonrocks (my fav strain next to G13) Hope this helps , Peace .

I’ve faced the issues this time with my amnesia haze. Probably the reason it doesn’t taste so great.
In autoflowers indoors I would 100% want to top them.

I’m more than happy to help brother! One thing that really really improved my grows was a little dolomite lime in the coco, it really helps keep the ph stable between waterings. It also loads the coco with calcium and keeps it from being a hog and starving the plant of calcium. Give it a shot. Just 2 TEASPOONS.
