Only advise I can offer is for you to put your fabric pots up on top of a couple of sticks to keep the bottoms off of the pans so they aren't sitting in their runoff.Week#3 The Experiment
These girls are needing support now because growing thick and wide. First bottom leaves have yellow spots however, all new growth lush and green. Advice ?
That's great advice I really hadn't realized that they'd be sitting in the water.Only advise I can offer is for you to put your fabric pots up on top of a couple of sticks to keep the bottoms off of the pans so they aren't sitting in their runoff.
Looking good.
Week#3 The Experiment
These girls are needing support now because growing thick and wide. First bottom leaves have yellow spots however, all new growth lush and green. Advice ?
Are you still watering only around the plant instead of saturating the whole pot?
They look stressed and it could be roots growing into dry soil.
I'm watering the whole thing. You think I should give you them some of the Botanicare Pure Blend Pro Grow?
I do have them in OF. I'm not sure if you can see it but the fan is on the floor gently blowing all the leaves. I am only watering once every 6 days because the bottom two inches of the soil level start to feel dry then. You think I should water every 3 days? I just didn't want root rot I also don't want dead or sick plants. Two are photo period.Are they in ocean forest? If so than no they will have plenty of nutrients left the soil.
I am not sure what is stressing them. Do you have a circulation fan pointed over them between the lamp and canopy kind of fluttering the leaves gently?
Are temps and humidity in check. I have no soft pot experience but they seem to dry unevenly. May need water sooner to avoid dry patches? Someone with experience maight chime in about it.

Also can I ask when you think it is good to switch from veg to bloom after how many weeks?
Thank you my bud. I'll move the fan a little higher because, it is a 6 inch fan that comes with both options either stand alone or clip. I'm using the same clip style fan to make sure the light stays cool.No one can tell you exactly when to feed. Every grow is different. Lots of variables. But 4-6 weeks in a big pot like that is average from seed.
I think you may have too much wind on the plants directly. You can point the fan at the wall for indirect breeze or stand it or hang (I use 6” clip fans made for tents) so the fans blow above the plants.
As far as watering. Try a plant a day earlier and see what happens. One time of watering early is not a problem. Overwatering refers to the frequency of watering being too often.
Love, best wishes. peace and blessing's to Emmie, Zoey and Joy, the Mars family and and all my buds.Merry Christmas to all farmers and your love.
Looking forward to the update
Saturday 28th Fourth Week Mars Hydro Experiment
I had to move the girls into a tent.View attachment 924810View attachment 924811View attachment 924812 I broke a stem on one of them and moved a new photo Chemdog Hybrid to the 3gal.
I can honestly say I'm trying to do everything like you said. If it wasn't for the smell they wouldn't need a tent.Nice color going on there. :-)
