Feeding granular fertilizer to autoflower: how much should i feed and when?
Knertstarted grow question 4 years ago
How much granular fertilizer should I give my north lights auto? I have a "general purpose" fertilizer (grains) which has an NPK of 6-3-3 and potassium grains with 2-0-20. I find it difficult to dose as it releases its nutrients over a period of 3 months... Gave 25g of 633 in w 3

@MadeInGermany, hey man! Thanks for the reply on my question! But it doesn't completely answer it. They advise 75g/10L pot in general for plants in pots and 100g/m² for "average nutrient needy" vegetables like carrots, spinach,... But the thing is: these are doses that are meant to last for 3 months and you're supposed to feed them at once. What I'm thinkng is: I gave her 25g at day 18 along with a good watering. Now I'm waiting for the pot to become dry again (probably around D25 or so) and with next watering I'll feed her some additional fertilizer. Only thing is I don't know how much to optimally give. Maybe another 25g to be safe? Or should I add another 50g to get to the recommended amount for a 10L pot (which I guess is still alright since she's in a 15L pot)? Or should I feed even more and just flush her when I switch to flowering nutrients?

Thoughts on providing enough nutrients in the soil for the plant to uptake as needed; rather than feeding while watering? According to Ed Rosenthal if you start with a rich enough medium, you don't have to feed. This is my current method, as I am still a noob. Gracias friends.Week 7

FloraCoco Grow instead of FloraGro in Hydroponics DWCIs it OK to grow in DWC Hydroponics using FloraCoco Grow (4-0-5 with also 0,8% of Magnesium) as one of the nutrients, combined with FloraBloom and FloraMicro? I'm asking because the store near home had finished FloraGro (3-1-7) and sold me FloraCoco Grow.Feeding. Schedule

Switching from seedling to veg feedingWhen should I switch from seedling to early veg feeding schedule. Im using General Hydroponics Flora trio in a DWC setup. I have read that a plant is no longer a Seedling once its new vegetation has the number of blades that the final leaf will have. Is this true?

I'm already seeing yellowing and on the largest plant, #3. Is that due to growth or am I over watering? Approximately 2 gallons in the wick bucket every few days when it starts to feel dry, but I generally spray the top with water on a daily basis, not more than a 1/4 - 1/2 cup.

Hi guys.
Considering the several problems of this grow, how I can change my setup for the next grows?
Now I'm using Plagron Alga fertilizers and the Promix substrate (no fertilized). Do you suggest to set the lamp in bloom mode (more reds) also during the veg phase?
Thanks,

Nutrients questionI’m currently using flora series nutes ,
Flora micro 1.4 ml/gal
Flora grow 0.7 ml/gal
Flora bloom 2.1 ml/gal
Usually 3-4 gal when changing water
From what I’ve seen in many diaries this seems like low numbers. Lemon haze is said to like low nutes but is this too low?
add bloom?
