Starting the fifth week here, and she's showing signals of pre-flowering like a clock.
I'll keep the nutes scheme with Canna Vega for this week but I'm in doubt about the seaweed.
Should I keep the seaweed for root development?
Wish me luck, mates!

@Zannabis7, I totally agree with you mate!
I'll let the nature work here, lol
Today I've started germinating other 3 plants, so I'll have the opportunity to improve my methods on next plants
Seedling looks great. I would trust those Ph meter that go in the soil. Get a Ph pen and the google Slurry test and use this as a way to test you soil ph. Best wishes on the grow.
@GreenZealand, Know this my friend. Distilled water has a pH of 7.0. If your soil is at 7.2/3 then you need to buffer. You should be watering with a pH of 6.0 - 6.4 to lower the pH to the proper range! You may need to consider a pH down or something that will balane your pH. I'm here man!
@Zannabis7, PH testers in action, the verdict was 7.2 in one check and 7.3 in another check.
The last time I've watered the plants, I used distilled water to be sure to be on the right track to ideal PH.
Next Monday I'll be looking for some PH balancer to start establishing the water first or even keep using distilled water.
@GreenZealand, I might suggest you also order some pH (litmus) strips to double check your meter. They are cheap and I always test wish my meter and then double check with a pH strip.
@GreenZealand, Ah you'll do great! I started my first one 7 months ago, it's a steep learning curve but you've done the research so I reckon it'll be sweet ๐

Question for the masters: what about those yellow leaves?
About the environment, let me list a few things:
I've tested properly the PH of the soil, and it's between 6.6 to 6.9.
My watering schedule from past 2 weeks was:
28/02 - 1000ml water (ph 6) with 2.5ml/L of Canna Vega Terra + 5ml/L of Monsta Bud (half suggested)
03/03 - 1000ml water (ph 6)
07/02 - 1000ml water (ph 6) with 2.5ml/L of Canna Vega Terra + 5ml/L of Monsta Bud (half suggested)
12/03 - 1000ml water (ph 6)
The plants are 65cm away from the LED panel.
The average temperature is around 27C (highest of 30.5 last week) and the humidity is around 65% (highest of 80%).
I'm using an organic soil mixed in a proportion of 75% + 25% with coco coir.
Do you guys think I can change anything or add anything to current strategy?
Cheers mates!
@GreenZealand, I am seeing some leaf tips curling down. This may be too much nitrogen. The fact that it it start on the bottom of the plant and is moving is also an indicator of nitrogen toxicity. What one of your nutrients has high nitrogen?
I want to also say that this is my first thought on this issue..
What ph meter do you use?
