Am 79. First grow. Not experienced. Used coconut coir without out any other additions. Bags are grocery and glued to hold soilless coconut. Don’t know if I should use the pro mix for nutrient. Can’t affford to spend a lot.
Very hot these last few weeks. Notice how leaves are yellowing and getting spindly. Watering everyday. Not sure when to feed as it has been so hot so I’m just watering. Should I feed diluted pro mix
First grow outside with coconut coir. Did not add any other soil, perilite,. I’m not sure if I should add the pro mix organic 9-16-16. fertilizer (diluted) as the plant is in the 4 th week. Bottom leaves yellowing with spindly stalk. Don’t know if healthy Any info is welcome.
Those bottom leaves being affected are a very good sign that she needs food, yellow bottom leaves like that a very signature to lack of nitrogen. Typically if you're seeing bottom leaves affected it deficiency whereas top leaves will show more toxicities. Try to work out a feeding schedule either from a manufacturer recommendation or elsewhere. Even plants that are hot and tired need nutrition. Happy growing 🍀
I hope youre not letting that coco dry out. Coco needs to be constantly wet (plant has to have an established root system of course). If you let it get dry the fertilizer builds up in the coco causing nutrient lockout and worse burn from excessive nutrients. What I would do is check runoff ppm/ec and if its higher than what you feed (by 300ppms), then you have a salt buildup. If its lower than what you feed with, then increase the feed. I would start with a runoff ppm/ec check, if its over your input (by 300), flush with a 300 ppm( Im using the 700 scale/canna nutrients) of base nutes, I would do calmag flush since coco hogs it. Then I would probably feed at 500ppm base nutes (Remember this is what I do if its 300 ppms over my input). Good luck!
Still hanging in there, but lots of rain and too hot. Kinda of got away from me in feeding and monitoring plants. Starting to bud and I’m just confused on when the plant will be ready. Keep snipping off yellow leaves.
Started in May. Put outside in June. Used cocoa noir. Harvested in first week of October. Will not use pure coco noir next time. Will mix with other soil. Very pleased with plant and did a sneak smoke. Very potent , still not smooth. Will let cure for a few weeks.
Hey there, has your rain passed, or is it supposed to continue ? If you're having a hard time with feeding due to rain, perhaps try feeding a low dose but a few times a day, then perhaps itll suck up enough before it gets washed out? Best of luck
hi @Bubuzz, pls send me some rain. but only some^^ we havent had rain for weeks.happy growing. your girl will be fine as she gets the nutes. Plants can go through pahses of lack nutients .....
@Bubuzz,From the look of the pictures above, it looks like your plant has just started flowering. So that means you need to wait for approximately 3-4 weeks before harvest. Your plants are doing super well so don't rush into harvest, they will get a lot bigger.
Rain, rain go away. Hard to monitor plant as still lots of rain. Either too hot or too much rain. Having a hard time second guessing feeding and overwatering.
