@biggreens420, thanks for the advice. Yes, I forgot to mention I was growing in Coco mix. I have read that the nutrients im using contain quite an adequate amount of Mag and Cal, so do you I need to ad more? Plants are definitely looking better after installing another fan.

Plants dont look happy, havnt watered in 2 days (50/50 coco medium). Think I watered to heavy in the beginning or the roots didnt get enough oxygen.

@AfricanGreen, yeww thanks dude. Definitely going to give this a bash. I have to say that the plants are extremely happy now in flowering, almost dubbled in size in a matter of days. Im actually limited with space and thinking of kicking either 2 plants out, or buying a new light and having 1 more growbox built. Ive gone with the EHG schedule for now, and toned down the strength by a quarter. Thanks again for the help!

@biggreens420, thefoxfarmer is using GHE nutes, @SUBVAULT420, I'm Using the EHG Products but i'm using RDWC. I Was using 3/4 recommended strength for veg and moving up to full strength during flower but i recently got a new feeding schedule to try from the growshop. This is quite long so please bare with me. Seedlings - Week 1 - 0.2 EC Micro Seedlings - Week 2 - 0.4 EC Micro Seedlings - Week 3 - 0.6 EC Micro (Clones start on this dosage) Veg - Week 1 - 0.6 EC Micro then add Grow till you reach 0.8 EC Veg - Week 2 - 0.6 EC Micro then add Grow till you reach 1 EC Veg - Week 3 - 0.6 EC Micro then add Grow till you reach 1.2 EC Veg - Week 4 - 0.6 EC Micro then add Grow till you reach 1.4 EC (Stay on this dosage if veg longer During the Transistion period for 2 weeks you feed equal parts Grow, Micro & Bloom to get a total of 1.4 EC which is about 7ml/10L per nutrient Flowering - Week 1-3 - Keep same Micro amounts as above and use half the Grow as above and then add bloom until you reach 1.6 EC. i.e. Roughly 7ml/10L Micro.. 3.5ml/10L Grow & add bloom till reaching 1.6EC Flowering - Week 4 & Onwards - 0.6 EC Micro and add bloom till reaching 1.6EC. Then Flush With PH balanced water for last 2 weeks. This is meant for hydro though, he says he hasn't tried it in coco or soil mediums, but it should be ok will just need monitor the plants. Hope this helps.

Im growing a black dog (week 5 flower) and shes finicky. She also did not respond well to topping. Shes only taking in around 250 ppms and thats in week 5 flower! I got a picky pheno thats for sure. Good luck with your grow man!

SUBVAULT420commented6 years ago

a Fan would help evaporate the water more, but if you waited more between watering it should be fine. I've learnt its easier to give less nutes than required, as you can always top up more if needed. But if you go to strong, nute lockout and stunting the plant could happen which is more difficult to get back to normal than a plant that may have slight deficiency. I'm not sure if you in S.A. but just be careful not to shock the plant moving and leaving it outside as its flowering season now here.

SUBVAULT420commented7 years ago

@AfricanGreen, thanks for the advice the plants are looking a million times better today. Moved a bigger fan and and extraction system into the growtent. Definitely scaling down on the nutes, till I see some propper growth coming back. Yes im in the North of ZA, but I move them back inside after 4. Thanks again for all the advice.

Plants look a bit over watered, remember you want the top to be bone dry, you should feel the weight difference between the plant thats been watered and one that needs watering. also i wait till about 3-4 sets of leaves before adding my EHG Products, Also i find there recommended dosage is a bit high, i start off at 1/2 strength and work my way up to full strength during flower

SUBVAULT420commented7 years ago

@AfricanGreen, thanks for the advice really appreciate it. Im going to back off with the nutes till I get them back on track. Ive brought in a extra fan and moved some outside to see if I can dry the medium this way.

bobo420commentedweek 17 years ago
