Seedlings abit droopy.

Gnats is one of main reasons I dont leave coco moist. And try them their sachets mate they are good.

Thrips sachets like spider mite sachets but for thrips. There good mate.

Was going to mainfold or.top and lst. Would you wait abit stil because of the stress and drooping ness? About 5 nodes tall now. What you reckon guys?

Enforcer what do you reckon? And do you top or.mainfols.or just bend main stem over?

 

[Enforcer]

Enforcer what do you reckon? And do you top or.mainfols.or just bend main stem over?

I do both. I wait until they have about 6 nodes. I remove the bottom node and top at the 5th node. Bend her over and secure with wire. Then as she grows I anchor the branches to the sides of the pot to keep her low and level.

But would you do now.if you was me or wait for the plants to recover a bit more.

Iv spent 2-300 hundread pound on then over last year lol , And I use spray when its really bad and my thrips predictor die,, now it's winter I'm getting more soon mate as they shouldn't die so soon as temps.in my room are now cooler

They are good tho.them preditora thanks

I think it be best to let then recover less stress the better as you already know.
If they get to tall you can always cut back to anlower node
Maybe your could slightly gently bend LST and not damage stems when bending be OK then.

But personally less stress quicker they recovet uh?

How they looking now since that feed with no cal?

I agree. Wait until you see vigorous growth before topping to minimize stress.

Just not sure if stil over watering. Confused now because I've always soaked them.in coco then wait few days til dry. Like wet dry wet dry. And I've done alrite as I said before 4 plants 600 watt average between15-20 oz.. I think the rootball was not tha big eniugh to feed everyday. Or maybe shud get fed everyday but little amounts. But then you dont get run off.
In fact I've only ever watered to run off once in 3 years.

I keep over watering use to be a lot now just a bit, literally last few days iv been over watering a bit again so iv been bottom feeding, I want to go onto auto pot like i use to in soil but with coco
I only been top feeding and to run off as I'm still experimenting with coco
And only problem I seem to get now it over watering, but only slightly but its enough to make my plants look/grow not as good as like.


I think you should water and let dry exactly like you use to before and hopefully it was the calmag causing problems so things should go better.

Im gonna start letting my coco dry a lot dryer then normal do in next few days and see what happens ,.
When i stated I didn't use calmag and I let the coco dry like soil and my plants look gret. Buy after reading stated watering more and got problems,, and other problems with hot coco to much to explain

Like you said i might try not watering to run off again its a bit like bottom feeding I suppsoe less chace of over watering.

Id rather not water to.run off.and I'd rather bottom feed
Only reason I tried different was reading about salt build up..

Bottom feeding my roots explode through The fabric pot as they only drinking what the want no over watering

Yeh think I'm going to. People say dont know let it dry but when in have dosent really cause me any issues. Stil getting good product and yield.maybe could be better.
I dont water to run off because its hassle to remove it. I've been told if not feeding to run off every third feed use just water. Wa size pot you in and are you still in veg or flower. And how much would you say you water in veg. Half litre a time? More.or less.

Ye was watering little bit of run off and the tray ilunder my pot is a auto pot tray I was like you said sucking the water out the bottom and waterd everyday about 1.1.5 litres then I tried just leving them sit in runoff them usually drink it all.l up by next day but getting both of over watering with both ways..
Then I tried wateribg to run off leave then drink it up and dry for 1 day this made roots explode and plants looked better
And yestdsay I botton fed snd going tom stick to theat and just bottom flush with water her and their.


I'm 1 week into flower and was top feeding like above says about 1/1.5 lites a day.
Now I'm bottom feeding Im pouring about halfa litre to a litre I'm bottom of trays I put a bit in wait few secs to be sucked up and keep giving till the water stops being sucked up and try to leave the tray empty till next day and repeat

I have 4 in veg potted yesterday from clone machine,/in post about 5" square pots. I water them till run off with feed 0.6e.c this was yesterday and iv not waters today the post still heavy im gonna treat them exactly like I would treat soil dry doy super dry but dry to see how the go. im sure this is going to work out well,. Time will tell
..

How did you use use to water In the past? No run off any 1 day dry init?
Also my ones in flower the post always feel heavy witch i don't like hence watering less and bottom

You should look through my posts mate tiled Calmag and yellowing / over watering

Their is a lot of shit to through but it was everything i tried since doing from soil.to coco and iv tried eventing pritty much, even changed nutrients

Never used to water to run off.. maybe occasionally water come out the bottom but didnt intend to. I think watering daily wud be fine when roots are well established. But this time around to much water when they was about 15 days old from seed as slowed everything down.
When I'm.in 12 litre fabric pots in flower always water everyday about litre an half at least a litre.
Depends how heavy the feel..

Just bort a soil moisture metre probe. Seems people think coco shud never dry out. Would that mean if it says moist water it. Or water it when it says dry

I also have fabric pots, 12 or 15 litre and exactly like you said I'll water everyday when their big in flower about 1litre / 1.5 run off to run off, but iv been wqywrijg less last few days and they seem the be liking it..

That soil moisture test be food idea , people are going to tell you tho coco likes to stay wet,, but like I said before im sure this bagged coco we buy is little different from pure brick coco, also canna
coco my coco the site says let it dry for better air to the root

I'm gonna get moisture metre myself soon to experiment.. Where are you from UK is it?

 

[Brettdawg]

Sorry about all got carrier away lol,

My first grow in coco I treated it like soil letting it dry they where good but 1 problem the coco my hydro shop sold me was to hot for cannabis's, they grew but shit I had 4 plants 2 died in flower all bottom feed and bitten flushed just water i was flush feeding flush feeding as they always look bit yellow and other symptoms and wetnt sutr if eqd under or over feeding, and some how i hit 7oz a plant dry my first grow that was , so second grow I stated reading and thought in need calmag grid full and half strength then though I might be under watering then I though i

Il probably test the stick out tomorrow mate and will only water when it says dry. I wud water if it said moist and they were looking better. But stil bit of droopiness. However growing but slower than I'm used to
My coco is called tropic mix.
Overview
For an airy, fertile coco mix, grab a bag of 70/30 Tropic CocoMix.

How are they looking mate any good growth?

Her ate mine they have been bottom fed last 2-3 days and since then plant growth had really taken off looking nice and green and iv been upping the feed their doing good now
Also since bottom feeding look at my root growth as they not getting as wet from bottom feeding and only drink what they need, I did the same few months back over waterd from top feed and changed to bottom then and again back then root grew well and plant did

These taken today
