You can feed up to 300 ppm to start for sprouts if your growing in coco. A little. If your going to feed cal/mg every watering I would go with low ppm for the cal/mg. Just don't go over 300 ppm in total for the first week, then increase 100 ppm every week if your seeing good growth. Cheers

Questions about wateringI created a 40 ml solution, the instructions say to transplant after the sprout has grown to the top of the plastic cover and the roots are visible through the plug. The question is, is 40 ml of liquid enough for this growth? I think not.Feeding. Other

Help: potential over fertilisation or over waterningI used Biobizz bio grow, 2ml/L and sprayed them more than usual. The tip of the leaves is getting yellow. 2 plants have the leaves pointing down and seem more textured and tick. The other 2 (the biggest) seem better, but the yellowing of the leaves is more evident.

Feeding right after repotting (coco coir).After repotting an auto flowering plant I get runoff EC of 800, while feeding water has EC 1200.
I guess EC gets diluted (biggest part of coco coir is new).
Should I increase EC of the feeding water?
I see slower growth but it may as well be due to stress of repotting.Setup. Strain - Autoflowering

expert opinion asked ? Maturity in day 49 flower from 60-65 (according to breeder)Maturity in day 49 flower from 60-65 (according to breeder)
I'm not sure about the degree of ripeness.
I used Co2 for a few weeks (1000ppm), the grower says ~60-70 days of flowering, so I would be missing 10-20 days, but they look quite ripe ?
What should I do
Thank youFeeding. Other
