How tho. I watered everyday till runoff. Coco was constantly wet. Also the roots smelled bad.
Do you have whole plant pics?How tho. I watered everyday till runoff. Coco was constantly wet. Also the roots smelled bad.
Yeah I was in plastic pots. I transplanted to 1gal fabrics.All environmental factors, feeding practices (ppm,ph,etc, temps, humidity)
Thats what the roots looked like before transplanting
Yup.... they will air prune... if dried out... my last grow was pretty good for learning and testing the rootbound theory and I'm now a form believer that they only need enough space to adequately take up nutrients.... if you can maintain that.... they can grow in some very tiny spaces.... I also feel the fabric pots are a big reason that can be done as it provides much more gas exchange. Maybe not much impact when used I other conditions but I feel in a tiny pot with bigger plants it's a game changer.It's what I was taught was pot burn, where the root is growing as hard as it can against an unmovable object, needs potting up.
Try making your own out of top shelf coco then add the perlite. That way you can mix it how you want to.They seem to do better now. Its not airpruning tho. Its root rot. I lost some where the rot was too far gone because the main root ball wasnt drinking anymore. Stayed to wet and died.
The plants where the main roots where not infected so bad seem to do great now in 50/50 coco perlite.
Gold label coco is shit. Its really muddy and holds on to way too much moisture. Also the 70/30 mix isnt 70/30. More like 90/10 lol
I really got some information from here before starting my first coco grow. I thought I was prepared. I would have never thought of root rot in coco i thought it was impossible. I am really disapointed in gold label coco. My friend said it was a good product.Try making your own out of top shelf coco then add the perlite. That way you can mix it how you want to.
Whats the best water temperature in coco? I always feed once an hour after my lights kick on.Always PH and TEMP adjust the water... ALWAYS BOTH
Did I read that right? Once an hour???Whats the best water temperature in coco? I always feed once an hour after my lights kick on.
once a day, one hour after my lights turn onDid I read that right? Once an hour???
Punctuation is key.once a day, one hour after my lights turn on
The temp of your media is what you want the temp of the feed. Usually around 5f cooler than air temps.Whats the best water temperature in coco? I always feed once an hour after my lights kick on.
