Hi guys, my 1st grow. I have 3 little royal gorillas just 1.5 weeks old, they look a bit yellow all over. I'm using canna coco medium, 600w hps light?

I would go for a flush and check ppm range, it shouldn't be over 800 ec maximum 1.2. If you let the coco dry, the salt based nutrients will throw off the mediums ph like you're seeing now. If it looks overwatered in coco, its either root rot of ph lockout, you don't have rot by any means. Flushing the coco and getting some nice run off is what your plant needs going into flower. Water daily if not twice a day if possible, I don't. it's just too much work. every time you water collect runoff and throw it away. Aim for 10 % runoff of what you feed, so If I feed 1 liter, I want to see 100ml of runoff. The more you water, the less you have to water ? Meaning that if you keep the coco hydrated, runoff is going to be easy to get, but if you let the coco dry, you'll need more fertigation to get runoff. Sorry for my rant, just smoked a Kinger . All the best, coco is great, easy and forgiving, just make sure I t doesn't get dry. peace

It's coco natural medium I'm using, not straight coco. I water daily. Will ensure I get 10% run off. I water a day then feed then next, should I feed every day when flowering?

Hi all, I'm using canna Coco natural medium and canna part A&B nutrients, they are saying that's all I need though the life stage of my autoflower, is anyone else just using these only and what were your results like?

Do you feed nutrients every day?

yes, you're going to want to use nutrients every time in coco, unfertilized water will just throw the nutrient balance off. But yeah every day.

of course man, I'm new to this too. Lots to learn, but coco will be a good start. Any time you feel like leaves are drooping or somethings not right check the ppm of the runoff, if it's off, do a mini flush phd and add your regular note regiment after you do the flush. Mistakes are made to learn from.

Do you use any other nutrients when flowering starts or just the canna a&b the whole way through dude?

A&B all the way, I think all of those snake oils are a waste and complicate things far to much for me. Nothing beats a good environment and genetics and proper light.
You have the light, you have the food, you just need to make sure to keep you environment stable and idea.

royal queen are great genetics, and with the 600w of hps you'll get nice dense buds.
