@H8ster , If your going to use this id applie to only one plant to test it .( Iam Not a fan of foliar feeding )
Hammer .
Id have to advise you to wait 1-2 weeks till id use nute’s .But add a little peroxide to the water ,1-2 teaspoon’s per Gal at watering time .They’ll like it .
Hammer .
Thanks. The reason I am considering it is that since I won’t be nuting the medium, which is coco btw, perhaps a light dose of the spray on the leaves would help them.
I’ll do that. Thanks! And should I keep RH between 30-40?
No . keep the RH 60-70 . at this stage .
Hammer .
Also get some Cal/Mag .youll need it when growing in coco coir .
Hammer .
I’ll pick up some cal/mag and add it to my next nute batch. Thanks.
I started a new thread regarding a replanted severed seedling that I successfully rerooted. Flying by the seat of my pants on that one. Any advice?
Don’t over water and add a a shot of b-vitamins to help against transplant shock.

Plants are starting to look better. All infestation is gone. Leaves are starting to uncurl and untwist themselves. Lower leaves from bottom 2-3 internodes are all yellow or dead. I watered today after after the medium in the pots was near 100% dry. Instead of using hydro peroxide, I added some Hydroguard. 6.1 pH. No nutes. Plan on doing another tent scrub down tomorrow and will reapply Neem oil on Tuesday. Last spray was last Wednesday. Fingers crossed. I’ve finally been able to keep my RH at a constant range between 55-70. Temp remains good between 72-82.
Hey Hammer, just wanted to update you again. Plants are doing well. When I say ‘well’, I mean not dead. Still mending. Growth is slowly starting back up. I pruned away all the dead stuff from the bottom. Keeping some of the ‘almost dead’ leaves on, as to let the plant to feed off of them.
Lot of growth starting on the main stalks. I started to do some LST to try and get more light to that growth, but cancelled it out. decided to wait a bit longer.
I watered them again today. Last time was 6 days ago with just the Hydroguard. Today, I applied some nutes. Not too much. 720ppm. CocoTek A & B along with some Diamond Nectar. As it applies to watering, should I be watering these everyday??? Or wait until the medium dries out? Some say that i should be watering twice a day. That you can’t overwater Coco. Which is what?
Anyways, here’s some updated photos of the plants.

@H8ster ,yes you can Over water any thing .except DWC . that said do this wait till you just start to see some drupe to them ,only a little bit ,and pick up to feel the weight of it .then water as per norm ,then pick up again and feel the weight again .use this as a physical gauge to water …As the plant mature they’ll drink more water .so be vigilant to check as time goes by .
Hammer .
Yeah, thats what i have been doing. I have weight recordings for ‘full’ all through ‘empty’. It makes sense. Water according to what the plant is drinking. Then when I see so many people saying you have to water daily, if not twice daily, regardless of weight, saturation, etc, I get confused.
Restarted some LST and am seeing some benefits. Plant is really starting to speed up on lower leaf growth.
The scars left by the infestation remain on some good leaves. Don’t know if its my eyes playing tricks on me or what. Makes me think the little bastards are still around. Another Neem spray comes on tuesday. Spraying the inside of tent walls with some eucalyptus oil insect repellant daily.
Based on the rapid onset and the way the leaves look now I really think this got a ph shock big time. Getting better after the flush also points to this. The addition of the bugs made it just nasty. They look way better now.
