Really satisfied, it's the first time I use Microbial Mass (replacement for Voodoo Juice) that the employee at my local hydro shop recommended me.
I also bought B-52 and lots of others for the flowering.
For my first 4 I only used Grow, Micro, Bloom
I would have topped by now from the looks of it. I usually top once the plant gets around 5 nodes. If they have been happy and healthy, they will probably recover quickly. As long as you are in veg, you can usually top whenever.
I think it's starting to show nutrients deficiencies, I'll add more next watering. I water 3L every 4 days with half the nutrients. so 3ml per 3L per plant. No Runoff was made since the start, I'll do it too. That may be the problem here, nutrients buildup around the roots that block access.
New Bonzai is a + :P
Is it a copper deficiency?
I use RO(no deionization) since the start, I'm at week 8.
the last watering, I used tap water that was under the sun for 16 hours for that reason, since I can't see until a bit if it does something I was wondering...
Thank you
Hey, it looks more inline with a potassium deficiency. I had a look through your diary and noticed you mentioned you were not watering until runoff. This could have caused a buildup of excess nutrients/salts. Causing the PH to fluctuate.
I'd recommend flushing with plain PH'd water. You'll need to water 3x the pot volume (e.g a 10L pot will need 30L of water) this ensures the medium is cleaned out properly. Then you can apply your feed.
You cant overwater this way, dont worry. Overwatering occurs when you water too frequently. It is not based on the volume as that drains away.
I see you are using RO water. I would recommend getting a cal mag product. As plants need that extra supplementation when on RO water (tap water usually contains this.) I see that yoire using Advanced nutrients, like me. I can recommend Advanced nutrients sensi Cal mag extra. It has an N P K ratios of 4-0-0 so be sure to cut some nitrogen out of your usual feed.
Hope this helps 🙂
@sativaman,
I have 2 of those lamps, 1 per 2 plants. I had one for 3 before. I was thinking about getting 1 per plant.
You're right, I got max of 35k LUX with those LEDs But when it's flowering I add 4 more small growing lights, which gets me close to 50k LUX. + a red LED light, a 4 feet one, that was my aquarium light before the white LEDs broke, I put it there in the back someday after seeing somewhere that red light is good for buds, to find out that the buds get at least 30% bigger with this,(buds on the back was 30% bigger than in front) now I always use it, I put the blue LEDs in veg and the red one in flower. ( I keep it on top now :P)
I'm trying LST to turn them around so all the buds get the same light. I was getting big buds on top and shit the rest of the plants.
Goodluck with the grow, QCS is great! I am sure the plants will be loving the coco as things are dialed in. For me, it came together when I kept the coco always moist and treated it more hydroponically, while balancing cal+mag supplementation. My plants exploded in growth after I switched my approach. Happy growing!
