Don't listen to everybodys advice. I got this advice when I first started I didnt listen until a week later and I'm much happier now. Get someone's guiding hand in your inbox and stick with them. Watering everyday in coco is a must. Learned that from @Aqua ManBring lights much closer, half the distance. Dim to 30%
LESS water would also help, dont water daily. And do that slowly.
All good manee you were only tryna help.Ya, I shouldn't have commented on a coco coir grow. I've never used that, just use amended soil here.
hey bro i havent checked it yet . will have a lookI would go easy on raising the ppm bro..you could end up with salt buildup down the track...whats is your ppm of runoff..
hey mate , its coco im growing inYa, I shouldn't have commented on a coco coir grow. I've never used that, just use amended soil here.
Sure looks like soil to me, though. And I DO know better then to water soil daily, LOL. Roots need to oxidize and need aeration.
my green planet book showing to get up to 850-950ppm by week 4 madmax ? is that wrong ?I would go easy on raising the ppm bro..you could end up with salt buildup down the track...whats is your ppm of runoff..
This is the truthYa, I shouldn't have commented on a coco coir grow. I've never used that, just use amended soil here.

i was watering lightly until they have reached the size they are now . . i will up the water to get more run off now they have gotten bigger. one is powering for now 16 days from seed ( hope its not male as they are all regular seeds )This is the truthhaha. Water soil everyday and you got some dead plants in the making.
Coco needs to be watered often... soil doesn't.i was watering lightly until they have reached the size they are now . . i will up the water to get more run off now they have gotten bigger. one is powering for now 16 days from seed ( hope its not male as they are all regular seeds )
Yeah you doing it right. Cheap to make an autofeed if you like. Prob like $60 plus a tote for a res.oh by the way , i am not running flood and drain. yes it is a flood and drain table elevated off the floor - ( this is to make sucking up run off water easier )
was all i could think of building at the time. and possibly i may do a flood and drain later down the track if i get more experience
ooh that does sound good . i still dont really know what you mean though . what is a tote ? im guessing making it a recycled system with a revivor ?Yeah you doing it right. Cheap to make an autofeed if you like. Prob like $60 plus a tote for a res.
Like this kinda but many options. This is just how I did mine. It autofeeds from a tote that I use as a revivor and then gets pumped down the drain using a cheap condensate pump for a furnace. If you follow the coco watering thread it makes keeping up fertigation frequency a lot easier.ooh that does sound good . i still dont really know what you mean though . what is a tote ? im guessing making it a recycled system with a revivor ?
wow that is cool.Like this kinda but many options. This is just how I did mine.

that looks mad . i wouldnt have a clue how to build that. what powers your pump just wall plug ?, whats the square plumbing pipe going around do ? is that full of water / nutes ?Like this kinda but many options.
