11 days old pls help im worried

Newguy420 · Nov 9, 2025

Help they are now on day 11 and some of my plants (cheese berry) are drooping really bad. Ive got the lights on 250watt each and i have 2 lights so they are under 500 watt alltogether
They are 36inches (3ft) above my plants
Really not sure what is the case now

imgrowing · Nov 9, 2025

personally, i would shut 1 light off and lower the other to about 24 inch.
that 1 girl has puffy leaves, so i'd say to wet.
seedlings can't take to much light or water.
just my dumbass opinion though

30k lux?

I seen your other post. You’re growing in coco but what are you feeding? If you haven’t researched anything about coco then this is the problem.

TannedViking · Nov 10, 2025

So to sum up: you're growing in 100% coco and watering once a day.

You have to incorporate some nutes as soon as the seedling stage when using something inert like coco. The cotys can handle it by themselves for a week or so but you will need some CalMag to help it during that time, and then start giving 1/4 feed every day, building it up every watering. Coco takes up some of the CalMag for itself, which soil doesnt, hence the extra at the start. I was watering every 12 hours for the first 3 weeks. It's very hard to overwater coco. You'll almost always be closer to underwatering. You can NOT let coco dry out! It's very bad to do so.

also, I'd add perlite to the mix, at least 30% of the entire volume in the pot.

On his original thread I recommended either learning coco or repotting that in soil and go organic top feed with no tools.

TannedViking · Nov 10, 2025

Agreed. Though repotting now is a death sentence.

Its like a T W.
Ima just watch.

I dunno they just look overwatered to me. You want it moist but not wet. You're also putting water in there so how do you even do that? Put your water around the outer rim, let it wicker inward. Work with a spray bottle set to the stream side, evenly and all the way around and stop when droplets start coming out the bottom.

For lighting and feeding, following a 2/4/6/8 rule through your grow will help keep you out of trouble. Seedlings should get roughly around 200 ppfd of light and no more than 200ppm in feed, or 0.4 EC.

I'm not seeing anything that would freak me out, just watch all your parameters and you should be good. Wishing you a great grow!

I could be biased but running coco as a new grower sounds, to me, like you're learning how to drive in a 76 lincoln. Soil has some leeway and recover (but you can't flush that well either). Read all the coco growing threads here as a start, but I'm sure there is a book out there somewhere specific to this.

PlumberSoCal2 · Nov 10, 2025

Of you're having issues on day 10 or 11 you haven't researched how this works and until you do you'll have issues.

Hahaha, with a clutch! Or 3 on the tree

I have now added canna coco a+b to my water with ph 5.8 so the water is perfect ive watered it just till a tiny bit leaks out the drainage holes. So now im going to wait till tomorrow and see if any improvement
Im so glad you have all told me about coco being so hard to grow with but no lets hope it fixes it now its been fed lol

MileHiGhost · Nov 10, 2025

Only used that medium with a reservoir, constantly checking pH/ppm. Rock wool is easier get beginners I think. That's where I started. Dabbled in soil a bit. Not my thing. Now I use peat pellets in DWC. Works fer this guy. Hope you get it worked out. Hate to see the lil greens so unhappy

I wouldn't say it's hard I'd say... the easiest would be outdoor in good climate, then for everything you take away to control (light, nitrogen, water, cocaine) you sort of add a level. Far dumber people than you have figured out coco- don't worry.
