skyzohpandastarted grow question 4 years ago
what is the right method to watering the plant at the beginning? Should I put some water on the top of the net pot? Should I do nothing because there is a kind of capillarity with the clay balls?

Hi there!
Yes if the netpots are not in the water it would be good to keep it all moist just in case until the roots hit the water.
I try to put the whole netpot with the rockwool in the system so that the rockwool is touching the water all the time. This might have some problems from what Ive read but im not sure if I have run in any.

I always started my seeds right in the rockwool cubes pointy end up and place right into the netpots as they germinate. Start your system up about 4 days after the girls appear with 250 ppm. My system was rdwc and the water line to the buckets entered at the top beside the net pots so my clay was alway getting pretty heavy flow of water from the time the roots broke through the rockwool.

Increase nutrition?Should I up the nutes? I’ve been feeding 1/4 amount for the last 3 feeds. I’ve read that after first week of 1/4 up it to 1/2, but from what I can see (foliage pic added) everything looks like it’s quite healthy.
Will plant benefit with more or should I stay as I am?
Cheers

Ph changed from 6.3 to 6.8 two days after adding nutes/vinegar to bring ph down. Tested too soon? How long to wait to check water ph after treatment?Water that i had ph’d was sitting at 6.3 had jumped to 6.8 two days later. I’m assuming its because when I mixed i tested immediately after without letting sit for a while (shook jug after adding vinegar/nutes ~30 sec). Curious if i tested too soon or it adjusted while settlingFeeding. Other

How long left?Hey all, first grow seems to be going ok, despite me being clueless!
Now at 8 weeks and 2 days and wondering how long I’ve got left? RQS say 9-10 weeks total.
Still a bit to go - only a few hairs turning brown but would really value input on when to stop nutes?
ThanksWeek 8

How long is left and other advice :)This is only my second grow and I am still learning a lot. I am growing this auto White widow on my windowsill and I was wondering how long do you think is left and if there is anything I should do. :). From what I understand it is flowering and some trichomes are turning amber.

First leaves curved ?On Purple Lemonade and Six Shooter the leaves develop a bit slower, but that's okay I guess. But the first leaves are all curved, is that a problem?

Does this look like minor leaf burn, too many nutrients or something else?I believe two of the plants developed minor leaf burn. One has white streaks on the middle and outer portions of several leaves, and the other has a rust, reddish stripe parallel to the center of several leaves. I’ve attached pictures above. Thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Weekly flushes to reduce EC?I’m in week 5-6 flower and feeding quite heavily. My hydro shop bloke advised feeding heavy based on the feed chart and then reducing the ec to 1 or less than 1.0 weekly before making changes to the ec based on the chart. Is this plausible?Feeding. Other
