I made my own coco/perlite mixture. I used coco coir bricks and washed 7 bricks one at a time (limited space ass my downfall) I washed them 3 times. I used organic perlite which I also rinsed and made 70/30 coco mix. I then made full cal/mag solution mix and let the coco mix soak for 12-14 hours. After putting the coco in the 3 gallon fabric pots I used my continued light intensity and height for a week or so while only using correctly PH tap water to keep the mix moist. I will be honest coco in the beginning can be very tricky but the trick is to let a 1/4 inch get dry before watering again.
Started using 1/4 nutes and turned up light to 100 percent. They each get about a bottle and a half of nutrient mix. I use Lotus Nutrients and use their link to read and follow the feeding chart.
The Exhale CO2 bag is keeping the medium pretty moist to where I only have to water every 2-3 days. Still keeping the same feeding schedule I watered until I saw a 10 percent run off. Low stress training is also going very well. The stunted plant gets about two bottles of water while I split the rest of the gallon sometimes adding half a gallon of nutrient mix.
Last feeding the big plant took a whole gallon of nutrient mix. While I split one gallon between the other 3 allowing a 10 percent run off to make sure the nutrients don't build up. I also go by weight for feeding schedule and the humidity level from the bag is keeping the schedule at 3-4 days.
I actually found out on day 41 that these are just regular feminized seeds. I switched to 12/12 and did a light defoliation making sure to not take more than 30 percent off at one time. I usually feed with every watering but I'm running out of grow and they're yellowing so I will probably just use the regular amount of cal/mag solution and regular water to correct ph. No pistols yet but hopefully soon! Happy Growing!
It's starting to have an even canopy and I'm going to also get another light for full coverage. I could SCROG them but I really think just spacing them out will give more light exposure and that will be just fine.
