I'll do a slurry test tomorrow but I checked the runoff and it's like .1 higher on the ph and 150 lower on the ppm. Just finished setting up my RO buddie so I can do a proper flush as well. My watering has been consistent though. Same time of day every day. Increasing volume as they take more. This is my 1st coco run and 4th all together but if I didn't learn anything before it was watering/feeding consistency. What ppm would you suggest or % to directions for photos? Thanks!Keep the feeds low. Typical auto problems.
24hrs on stresses them bad, switch to 18.
my guess is your watering has been inconsistent. Too little. Then too much. Causing ph swings in the coco, causing uptake issues.
Do a ph slurry to confirm.
I would do a flush feeding on the next water.
I was a dedicated auto grower and have since found photos to to be more forgiving and better for us inexperienced growers, just my opinionKeep the feeds low. Typical auto problems.

It's about 24 inches off canopy now. Yes it's at 100%. No I don't have a light meter. What exactly am I looking for?How far away is the hlg and is it 100%? That’s a huge change in light for sure. Do you have a light meter? If not download an app from your App Store.

Why is this? Because it's coco?If you flush, don’t push RO through the coco, without added nutrients.
I would plan on doing 500ppm waterings for the next 2 with 30% runoff, instead of a heavy flush.
Well it seems my PH meter went out on my and I didn't realize. Calibration solution and new meter came in today. Waiting to get off work to see my findings...Keep the feeds low. Typical auto problems.

It apparently messes with the buffering capability of the coco , I was suggesting a heavy runoff nutrient flush. 500ppm.Why is this? Because it's coco?

Autoflowers at not for beginners. Not forgiving. Any stress affects yields greatly.
Well what I'm reading now tells me for a week or 2 they were getting 6.7 phIt apparently messes with the buffering capability of the coco , I was suggesting a heavy runoff nutrient flush. 500ppm.
Once you get the results, you can adjust the ph accordingly for your flush feeding.
Oh wow. Had no idea. Thanks!Way to much light for 24/7 at 2ft 100% way way to much... in addition to what was said above. I would drop to 18/6 under that intensity. Even that may be to much after looking it up at 100% you prob best off about 30" 18/6.
Under normal flower 24" @ 100% would be good and that 12/12 lighting. 24/7 you dam near double what most will handle. I'm surprised they look this good
The main reason I had them in 24 was because I was having temperature issues but its warming up now. Starting that tomorrow.

You can cut light intensity and stay 24/7 if you need the temps.The main reason I had them in 24 was because I was having temperature issues but its warming up now. Starting that tomorrow. Thanks again.
Thanks man. Much help as always.You can cut light intensity and stay 24/7 if you need the temps.
I would say for 24/7 you be good at 30-35k lux max.
