@Cloudz2600, good luck to you my friend. After I wrote my comment it hit me that maybe u were in some type of other media besides soil.

I always grow in fox farm and rarely ever have to feed I'm new to the starter cubes I just started using them this week

@Frog_Fisher,Promix is pretty neutral and doesn't really come with any nutrients in it since it's a soilless mix. Fox farm is typically pretty 'hot'. In regards to PPM my water is around 50ppm so 170 is actually pretty low in my experience and I was using a good bit of Co2 with the greed pad jrs. If you watch his Great Root Race video you'll see the plants with the green pad actually yellow pretty quickly as they're absorbing nutrients at a faster rate than the other plants.

You're in Solo cups, you're listening to the GrowBoss!

haha yeah, I called in yesterday. I'm actually not a fan of Solo cups(usually got right to 1gal) but we'll see how it goes.

@bobo420, Updated pics yesterday. Last pic should show set of two true leaves. Even the first few pics do actually. Cotyledons are below that. If you mean :they don't have 5 leaves" that's a size thing. Technically there's no difference between how the leaves function/show symptoms once true leaves start appearing. Only the cotyledons function differently. EDIT: Besides, yellowing is from a lack of nutrients and the plant pulling the nutes from the leaves. It's entirely possible for any leaf to yellow if the plant doesn't get what it needs from cotyledons/media. Whether the leaves are "proper" or not doesn't change how the plant gets nutrients.

@bobo420, That's why I mentioned my not getting yellowing yet. If I was (or had other signs of a deficiency) I'd totally agree that the 270ppm was too low. EDIT: Also Co2 PPM levels with 2-3 green pads should be pretty good. The videos I've seen show that in a dome (when not venting obviously) PPM levels are around 600-700 per pad. Obviously that would be nothing if I was venting, but it's in a closed dome.

@bobo420, I've learned that less is more when it comes to nutrients. I'm not getting any yellowing which means they aren't deficient and it's easier to deal with a deficiency than it is when you over fertilize But between the Superthrive, extra co2 from the green pads and the Clonex I'm getting pretty good root growth. I'll be kicking it up a bit (+100ppm each week) once I switch to actual nutrients. My tap water is only 30-40 ppm so most of that is nutrients.

@bobo420, Yeah I think I'm going to go one more week. I'm having to water every 2 days. I just wanna use all the Green Pad Jrs and since I'm venting they'll be useless outside of the dome.

Good luck with the grow ;)
