Feed confusion

Flippinugget
Flippinuggetstarted grow question 19h ago
Autos on Week 3-4, feed them first time lightly with 180ppm TA tripack which slowed down the yellowing on lower leaves. But now I'm seeing some upper leaves going light green on the outer part of leaves. Sould I feed them more? Because after 1st feed I saw a few small burn tips

They are heavily overfed, would not feed anything , till you transplant them and gave time for setting up.

I am interested in the setup of the grow pots you have... looks like toilet paper tubes on top of a pot but the plants are growing out of the tubes and down into the pot. Interesting way of doing it. why not just transplant them into the pot? Or maybe that is happening later? As for feeding, Have a plan, get runoff as not to build up and stick with it. Adjust to what the plant needs by what it is showing you, and slower increese its strength as time goes on and the plants grow. The new growth is lush green and the older leaves yellowing might just be slowly dieing. It won't repair them, its ok. leaves are not forever. They should bounce out of this in be ok from the looks of it. Lack of O2 in the root zone tends to make the new growth all mutated and jaggered. I don't see this on your plants. I don't think this is a problem, but always good to aerate water before use. simple shake in bottle or string can do the trick. Out of the tap also works with an aerate attached to the tip.

Yes, what the colleague says can also be the case.

Also someone said lack of oxygen. I only recently learned u should aerate ur water with a fish tank bubbler for 20-30 min b4 watering ur plants it does help especially after the seedling stage

That's what the lower leaves show, but based on the upper ones I would say that it could soon be overdoing it with n, which is why this seems like a lack of oxygen to me...mainly when the plant has nowhere else to take nutrients, it pulls them from the leaves and starts from below, but it would also show up on the edges of the fan leaves, while that's not the case here.

Looks like they’ve got to be transplanted but I’m personally not an expert at identifying issues. However I do autos in peat pots too. If I don’t transplant them Within 2 weeks they also get yellow leaves. Prob bc it needs more nutrients than seed starter soil in a 3 inch peat pot and adding nutrients in a small pot “probably” burns it too but again not an expert at the identification stuff just possibi

This looks like a lack of nitrogen, but I would say that these plants lack oxygen. Wait for someone who grows inside to give you an answer.
