Week 3 Update, things have been coming along slowly. I need to re think my start in coco when growing seedlings.
I changed something, tried to fix something that wasn’t broken.
In the past I would only use a small amount of water & nutrients this time I over did it with both of these...
I’m praying things will pick up soon and they will start growing, just going to keep up with the daily feeds. All my girls are massing roots at the base of the pot so hopefully growth up top should pick up soon.
@PharmaZ, you've given me a heart attack reading that. Hopefully I can get this right just worried about ec levels. They seem to low. So will the coco hold onto the Organic nutrients longer than the other nutrients? Will avoid watering everyday and just when it needs it
@OrganicNature420, yeees, Big mistake. This grow is killing me😂
But I have learned some things from my mistakes...
If you are going to grow in coco with Green Buzz do not water them everyday as seedlings they don’t need it. The organic nutrients PH shifts upwards over time... so you basically feed at 5.8-6.0 after a few days the PH in the Coco rises which is good thing and more natural than having a fixed Ph or rapid Ph fluctuation.
I add Calmag 0.4ec still this buffers the water so when you add the other nutrients you don’t get rapid PH swings in the solution either.
It’s not the same as using chemical/salt based nutrient in coco as they need to be continuously flushed and also with the chemical nutrients there isn’t the same organic/microbe synergy.
Some things to think about 🤔 😃
Ps: I’ve watered the seedlings everyday and transplanted them that’s why this grow is fucked up, in the past I grew them like soil until they were big and needed that everyday feeding :)
