Hello everyone, I'm new to this, site as well as growing.
Im working on my second grow and I'm learning alot but I have a few questions that could help me alot in my grow if I had them answered by some of you pro growers.
first off I'm doing a dirt grow and I think my vegetative plants are lacking in nutes as they are yellowing on their lower leaves. I recently bought a ppm meter and so before I water my plants I add nutes and balance my ph, however I'm wondering if I'm not giving them enough ppm nutes, I saw a chart giving very exact ppm numbers of how much ppm to give the plants at each stage of their development. So I'm wonder is this just for hydro? what about for dirt? should I use the same ppm numbers and add the same amount of nutes to my water before i give it to my plants as the ppm meter should read when one does hydro.
To sum up how often should i give them nutes and how many ppm should my water read before i give it to the plants.
second I'm also starting to formiliarize myself with hydro, I just set up a 4 bucket dwc system with a water pump inside one bucket with irrigation tubing leading to the rockwool cubes of each bucket so my second question is how long should i run my water pump to the rockwool to establish the roots into the water. I don't want to get any root rot so I'm planning on hooking the water pump to a timer and watering occasionally, so i just need to know how often at what intervals, and for how long should I set the timer to water the roots of my hydro girls.
I hope i did a good job asking these questions and I hope yall can help get me the answers i need, thanks for your help.
