Here we go.
2 for 2 germed.
Trying to pump the humidity up it's sitting near 70 I'd like it abit higher.
Dropped the seeds into a some great white as a wee started snack for the roots, with some calmag and bioheaven as we're in coco. I know the ecothrive has some charge in but I've gave them a wee dose to begin with and sorted the pH.
@Swollen, 2 have been germed, I was planning on doing a 6 week or so veg, so I can fill out the tent with the 6 that I've got going. I've got a nice wee cheat guide also, thanks to you. I'm calling today day 1. The purple colours on yours buddy are beautiful ๐ ๐คฉ
@Stork, it's been a good first week. I'm currently learning about how much water the pots need, as I've only done 2 in coco before I'm glad they are all well and looking healthy.
Hey brother, glad to see you made the switch to Coco! Once you get it dialed in you will NEVER go back to soil, I can guarantee that, the roots absolutely explode in coco. Only medium I use and thats for cannabis and my vegetables. If you have any questions along the way hit me up and good luck brother!!!
@Aldo90, Hey now, your are correct, the ppm is just half the number of ec. So if your ec is 800 your ppm would be 400. So if you are feeding at a ppm of 700, make sure your runoff is only around 800 ppm. If it is much higher than that increase the amount of fertigation or the fertigation events per 24 hours. If your runoff is too high that means the Coco is drying out too much resulting in more salts which will harm the roots over time...
@Tweezer, I've been checking both the pH and ppm runoff. Do I need to get an ec meter or is the ppm one OK? I thought they were both the same thing but different way to measure it. Again sorry if that seems daft lol
@Aldo90, you are correct the runoff is waste, however I mix mine with my dehumidifier water to lower the EC then PH it and feed it to my outdoor tomatoes which love it. You should also keep an eye on the EC of the runoff, if it gets too high that means your plant is drying out too much between feedings causing the salt content and ec to spike in your medium. I grow everything in coir so any more questions hit me up and good luck!
