I would take the single products from canna ( calcium and magnesium) to buffer the coco and some aloe after washing it. Single products a´have the advantage that they dont contain Nitrogen , like all the other mixed calmag products. So you can easy start with you seedling without having overfertilisation . greetings

About the feeding it is hard to recommend a feeding chart over another as it depend mostly on your the nutrients available for your but whatever the brand you will use you NEED to grab a bottle of Cal-Mag because coco grow requires a lot more than a classic grow. About the coco buffering I know that some growers are soaking the coco into a Ph'd water with extra cal mag in it 👍😊

Wondering if someone could take a look at my plant. I think it was a bit hot yesterday, not sure if it is heat stress. Not sure if it is Nitrogen Toxicity either because of the dark leaves. Maybe this is normal? Can someone shed some light for me? Thanks!

Looking for some advice on when to flush. Due to the temps here they only need water about every three days. So far I have received the following advice from enough to make it look reasonable. Flush begins at 25% amber hairs. What do yall think on this strain?

I've had a real issue with defoliation. Not really sure how much leaves to remove without causing harm to the plant. Where should I start and what is a good procedure to follow.

I’m currently at week 7 flower, using biobizz nutes, and wondering when I should be flushing? People say a week? Problem is my GDP clone looks a little further along, and I’m struggling to see the trichomes with my cheap loupe. I’m worried I’m already in the harvest window :(

Okay, she’s compact with tight inter nodal spacing - I’m thinking of fluxing this lady! I’m nervous because I don’t want to stunt her, but feeling brave. Any advice or tips? I’ll consider mainlining instead!
