Am I right waiting longer until feeding for the first time? I heard overfeeding your soil can be very harmful to the roots.

Now is about the time you'll want to add some base nutes. Always start with the lowest dose or 1/2 strength 👍🌱

Ensuring nutrient solution isn't too strong for coco
Is there a way I can make sure my nutrient solution isn't too strong while I save for an EC meter? Should I just go off CANNA's chart and use the lower values? If anybody could point me in the right direction or show me a good canna coco chart that has worked for them, please do!

Rock Resinator
Opinions please!! Reviews on Rock Resinator nutrients ?? Anyone used it, does it make a difference to bud density. I’ve been gifted some and have since found out how expensive it is.. Should I believe the hype on this Product? Also heard some rumours it’s bad for you? Any advice?

Substitute for liquid hydroponic nutrient solutions
Those solutions (like Hesi Hydro Growth) seem to be ridiculously overpriced, like 10€ for 1 liter fertilizer solution which consists of mostly water itself is a total ripoff in my understanding. Is there a substitute for those heavily overpriced nutrient solutions?

Potassium soil with neem oil and kelp extract as a foliar spray on seedlings
I have doubts about applying some foliar sprays. I've used Neem Oil + Potassium Soap with some kelp liquid extract, together without any issues. The benefit of using it now is obvious, but, are my seedlings too small to handle foliar sprays? Could I harm them if I apply this mix?

Advice?
Done with LST. I added a little overdrive.. just so anxious. My plants seem in line with pics from other Growers diaries. Any advice appreciated. Sometimes I’m afraid I overdo it with early topping and I did a lot of lst on these. I’m new at this. Thanks for reading! 🌱

The problem in plants when I supplying CO2
Hello! After adding CO2, I noticed problems on the leaves of my plants. Grow in coco+perlite, water with 1100ppm solution, 1000ppm co2 in air. Drain from the right 1400ppm and 1800 from the right. Is it related to co2 and irrigation system?

1 week into flowering, no pistils on preflowers yet. Change to flower nutes, or what?
Hi guys a couple of questions: 1) When should I change to flowering nutes? I heard high nitrogen can hold back flower formation. 2) Should I be concerned or look out for anything else? Background: - 1 week after flipping to 12/12 - Very vigorous and healthy (in DWC with CO2)
Buds. Too few

Fert Switch Veg/Flower Timing
When and how do you switch from Canna Vega to Canna Flores? Feel free to share any tips. What are your "signals"? Do you suggest a hard switch like in the Canna schedule, or do you prefer transitioning by mixing the fertilizers? If you need more info, please check the diary.

a friend wants to start with his first plant. Unfortunately, he doesn't have much budget. And through the Corona eruption, he has to work with what he has. As soon as he has the money, he absolutely wants to switch to the right additives. Is it possible to use one of these.
