Should I feed more ?
Miss_Earthquakestarted grow question 3 years ago
Hello there !
This is my first grow and I read so much on nutrients burning that I give nutrients only once a week to avoid this. Monster Bud Mix was added to Plagron Light Mix when I transplanted the ladies in 11l fabric pots. Do you think I should feed them a little more?

If anything you might be pushing a pinch much. Greenness of leave tell you how much nitrogen is in your plant. Too green and it claws. I would stick to current amount next week then if its starts to get lighter green by 2and week just a punch more. Feeding appropriate amounts and nutrition for size of plant is very important. In vegging your npk ratio is 3-1-2. In flowering it is 1-2-3. With autos you have to slowly transition from one to other as flowering goes on. Hope this helps and good luck. You are off to a awesome start. Happy growing 🌲🌲🌲👊

They look like you're feeding the right amount, perhaps slightly too much. Keep in mind that your soil may hold residual nutes and a buildup could eventually lead to toxicity.
Make sure you have an EC meter. Test the feed and the runoff. If the runoff is higher than the feed, then you're giving too much nutes. If it's lower, you can add nutes.
Good luck!

Not I think you are doing great and the plant looks a picture of health👍
Only add more if the plants leaves show a sign that tells you to increase nutrients as in the leaves start to go a lighter green etc, read the leaves and make your adjustments based off them. I tend not to follow a charts feeding regime as most tend to recommend too higher strength feed and if my plant is thriving don’t change anything.
Hope this helps pal and great start👍

Time to start 2 week flush?Hi 420 Fam. So I would just like to get your opinion on my 3 White Widows. Only SOME brown/slight yellow orange pistils here and there. Tomorrow (26Aug) is start of week 8. Should I start flushing tomorrow to have full 2 weeks, or do these look like I can start flush from week 9?

Nutrient switch to bloom in DWCI started this reservoir with 100% veg nutrients and have been topping off with bloom nutrients. If I do this for a week and at the end of the week change reservoir to flower nutrients .... is that gradual enough or too quick and I will shock them? First time flipping !Feeding. Schedule

Feeding schedule (Hydroponic)If you have a feeding schedule that is (change the water every second week as recommended)
1 week 10ml
2.week 20ml
In the second week do you just add 20ml nutrients or you add 10ml more if you don't change the water, or you have to change the water every time you add new nutrientFeeding. Schedule

what EC do you feed and how often?I've been giving 6.5 pH water once and the next time I add nutrients until I get an EC of 1mS/cm. This was ok before (runoff didn't show many nutrients on soil). Now I water 2.5L/day but the plant leaves nutrients in soil (runoff EC increases rapidly!) It's in week 4 of flower.4 years ago
