Not sure if it's down to beginners luck, but I'm pretty happy so far😃. Managed to get through seedling stage with no problems and now looking nice and green and bushy. The Canna nutes seem great at hitting the right pH without needing to be adjusted. I have very lightly stress trained but she has only been bent over once. I don't want to push my luck! This is one of 5 autos I have started but this one was the first and is 10 days ahead of the others. Thanks for looking

Is it preferable to use filtered tap water over tap water that's been left out for 24 hours? Would it be worth running my tap water through a filtered jug? I live in a soft water area

Technically the purer the water the better but there is a point where the return on investment begins to die off. If you can drink it fine so can the plant, that is the crux if it. But just like you, the cleaner the better. Now you will end up adding Silicon anyway so use tap, RO, rain water, long as you wouldnt mind drinking it its fine.

been running the full line of Canna nutrients in Coco. Time to add boosters. I have Canna boost but would like to try AN big bud with bud candy on some other plants for comparison. Do I still add pk? Do I still use Canna additives such as cannazym. can anyone advise on this?

Hi! All those boosters are like additives and you should still use PK products too! If the products work as they are marketed you might even have to use more PK than normally. What I understand all of your boosters has a slightly different ingredients and I think you can use them all at the same time without any overlapping 👌

Heading into week 5qq1aa1 now can't really complain with how things are going. Looks vibrant. Notice she taking more water Only concern is the height. She has rocketed. I should have been more severe with the lst. Ties weren't strong enough and she's almost pulled back straight again. Lesson learned. Can anyone tell me when I can expect the stretch to stop? Is it too late to be bending her down? Also, I've been feeding half strength cal mag every with using coco. Should I be continue this through flower or reduce it? Thanks for looking and for any tips👍

I've been using half strength Cal mag with every feed so far as was suggested with growing in coco. Should I continue with this through flower or decrease/increase it?

My attempts to keep height down failed. Growth has been vigorous. Accepted defeat and moved out of the grow cupboard into a make shift tent as some top leaves seemed to be getting light/heat stressed. Other than that it's nice to start seeing some buds🤩

Dealing with warm temperatures at the moment. Seems to have lost some smell because of it. But look ok as far as I can tell. Raised nutrients strength with no ill effects.

looks good to me... node spacing isnt large and you'll get good colas. Try not to look at the progress except once a week.. it'll help psychologically, lol.... it'll get there... keep it healthy and the plant does ALL the heavy lifting for you... just stay out of its way.
