Low runoff EC levels coco coir
HAPPYWEEDSstarted grow question 4y ago
Growing in coco coir my runoff EC levels are 0.2-0.3. What do you think that's mean? Are eating babes all nutes? Need they more? I'm feeding 1,8 EC in flowering week 3 each 1-2 days. Watering 2 times/day but feeding just 1/day or 1/2 days.

yes,means there is not a big mass of nutes in your coco.could be either your plant is eating well or you are draining off nutes you have been giving. in coco, unless you have a nutrient related problem, it is not necessary to do a pure watering session between feedings,it just flushes out the nutes.optional of course but I would just feed feed feed if plant looks good. coco is made for frequent feeding. in case nutes build up in your coco, EC would increase and increase.

When to start flush for harvestI am curious to know when to stop amending the soil as the buds get closer to ideal "ripeness"? Once the pistil tips start changing to red should I consider making my last feed and start flushing? I've read on ILGM.com that autoflowers typically finish around 10 weeks..Week 7

Harvesting 1 out of 2 plants sharing the same reservoirI will need to harvest the purple much sooner than the widow. Two questions: 1) Can I dry the purple in my tent that the widow is still growing in, meaning it will not be drying in the dark? 2) Can I flush the purple with fresh water for a week or more without hurting the widow?4y ago

Brown Tips on LeavesI've noticed some brown tips starting to show on my autoflower plant -- the Auto Blue on my page. I personally believe it's from overwatering barely, though I have solid air circulation and try not to water until the soil is truly dry. Any help would be appreciated!Leaves. Tips - Burnt

General Nutrient Schedule questionMore a general question though specifically for growing in soil. Should you add nutrients proactively at certain stages of the lifecycle? Or wait until the plant asks/needs them? Or is it dependent on other factors like soil composition or growing style?Feeding. Schedule

Should I feed more ?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?Week 4
