Stinkygorillastarted grow question 6 years ago

I water roughly 2.5 litres every 5 days now and when I feed a nutrient solution I use the same volume, is that too much? Is that why I'm constantly seeing lockout deficiencies?

Hi @Stinkygorilla! Seems fine, I usually water with ~20% of the pot/container size. So in your situation, considering you're using 40L containers, I would use 8L. This should flow to the bottom of the pot, and give you a little drain (which can be useful if you want to check ph/ec). However this basic rule does not always apply, sometimes they drink more, sometimes they drink less. Keeping a close eye onto your plant's health will help in finding the perfect amount of water depending on their current stage/health/temp..Hope this helps, keep us up-to-date and happy growing!

I usually use the same volume of water wether feeding with nutrients or giving water only. That should not be an issue. But it is possible your plants don't need/want as much nutrients as you have been feeding. Maybe try feeding at 1/2 - 3/4 the recommended strength. Good luck!👍

Is This Mildew On My Leaves?So I mentioned these pale colors on my leaves in my last question. (Please see last photo in Week 3). I have made a mistake - after scraping the leaf with my hand, it is definitely something on the leaves! Does it look like mildew? I removed the extractor fan for 1 day.

What are these white marks on my leaves?On my last photo it shows these unusual white marks all over the leaf. This is on the GSC #2 plant. It has been like this on other leaves since a while ago. It looks like white material ON the leaf, but its actually the leaf itself. What's going on here?

Light green/lime green new growth Can anyone tell me why my new growth is light green/lime green? Is that normal? Start of 3rd week of flowering. Otherwise healthy from what I can tell. Some lower growth is weak and flimsy but I think that’s normal considering how small the branches are.

Altura adecuada SCROG Hola cultivadores! En este cultivo tenía pensado hacer mi primer SCROG, ya que solo hay una variedad dentro del armario. ¿Creéis que el estrés por la luz les impedirá alcanzar un tamaño adecuado? ¿Es mejor cambiar de técnica y aplicar una poda apical? Un saludo! Buenos humos!
