Day 16 - The slow growth I noticed last week was caused by the lack of base nutrients, as I suspected in coco is very different than in soil. For the next runs I'm going to buy Vitalink PlantStart in order to feed 'em by the very first days without the worry of overfeeding. Now the ladies are doing great and loving life! Still feeding them 1 time per day until they will be big enough to begin feeding 2 times per day.
Day 17 - Today I noticed the beginning of what I think is a Calcium deficiency on the first leaves of Gorilla Cookies. I have cut the CalMag Xtra 5/6 days ago, when I started with base nutes, because a guy I follow who have the same line of nutrients have to use it only the first 2 weeks. So, I re-added it to the mix at 1ml/L and adjusted pH at 6.0 in order to fix the deficiency. Now the PPM is a 750, hope the roots are big enough to take it without burning.
Some days ago i noticed what i think is a Calcium deficiency because i cut the CalMagXtra on day 14 when i started giving the base nutes. So I re-added it in the mix and adjusting the pH at6.0 but the plant is not recovering andnow even the 2°plant is showing that signs. Help pls
Good luck with the coco, you will love it! I have noticed such a difference in root growth and overall the speed of plant growth with coco.
Happy farming!
