Mid week...
Not much going on this week.. They have been born and just trying to not "love them too much" lol.. Just misting them and the medium around them.. I did wet the medium with a tad bit of Floralicious Plus along with some MYCO+.. The Mandarin Cookies was kinda curling a little.. But it has straightened out since I noticed.. They are both so super tiny but noticeably growing.. Still can't believe how fast the ETHOS Cookies cracked open.. 12 hours! Wow... But now the ETHOS Cookies is about a day or so behind the Mandarin Cookies.. So excited for this run.. Oh yeah.. I have the light at 32".. Not 30".. Not sure why the website won't allow me to put 32".. It automatically changes it to 30"... Word...
Can't seem to shake my acidic reused coco/perlite mix.. Ph going in is 6.2 - 6.3... Runoff is coming out 5.8 - 5.9.. Ive even ran 6.5 thru the mediun and still coming out at 5.8 - 5.9.. Should I try 7.0??? Help please!!!
I think this is problem with coco buffer. Try to use more cal-mag and change your nutrient solution. Lower potassium, raise cal-mag.
Problems with coco pH - always about wrong watering and wrong composition of the nutrient solution.
p.s 5.8 pH its not bad for vegetation.
@Ezzjaybruh,
You would think.. maybe the chemical compounding wont allow it? Maybe that why damnnear all the other companies have the same exact ratios? Idk.. could be a possibility
Get a flood and drain table set up. Did soil for 6 years. All ph problems and lockouts and deficiency dissapears with a resevoir. I let mine go for 2 weeks at a time without changing. Couple airstones ph to 5.9 and my plants are bushier and greener and healthier than ive ever laid my eyes on. Would never go back to soil or coco.
@MackMurder, I don't think I have enough room for ebb and flow. Unless I really cram it all in there. I have been thinking of trying DWC tho. Just 5 gallon buckets with plenty of bubbles. Same nutes minus the organic stuff.. still using the hydroguard.
