Your video taking skills are lacking . Honestly a simple picture or 3 is better, we can than all zoom in better for much better advice!
Click to expand...

they are right
We can’t zoom in to look at the trichs & other important things in a video

A photo allows us to inspect things you might not of noticed or thought of & it would of helped give you advice going forward

The plant is kinda mutated nvm

Good luck going forward

You can easy flower under 250w esp just one plant

I ran a 250w for ages it was fine and my yields were great

I run more plants now & have 2x 400w in one tent & 1 x 400w in another both dimmed to 75%
still have the 250w around if I was to run less I’d probably use it

COOL!
Listen, here's the thing.
You don't have a $5 light meter. Get one. Get one of those multi testers that has pH and also light but totally ignore the pH readings.
Your pH in soil is like 6.3 or so. Get there.
Manure as mentioned is way too much, 5% is a tad much but it's not the poison stew you made. 5% is easier to calculate by volume... use ONLY 5% manure. Old cured pasturized manure.
Never talk about those grow times again, at best they will mislead you. You have a seed which does not know time. Only react to the plant not some timetable, you aren't growing calendars.
Your light meter should get you to 400 ppfd which is strong but also works fine for seeds, don't be afraid of a LITTLE strong, bare percentages. Just don't over do that.
Your light is fine when you set it you don't need 750 fucking watts for a couple autos. 100w can be perfectly fine.
Your little plant has "toughened" and armored itself against environment meaning it's thick stemmed and thick leafed, those resources go into buds if the plant doesn't have all this stress.

You give water and nutes when top soil feels dry if their young top feed and when bigger give water/nutes in saucer

Me personally I do not bottom feed or water in soil. That sounds like a great way to build a salty stew that fries roots.

I'm not slamming the company but I got piss poor results using feeders to a bottom resevoir too. Maybe someone makes it work with a wick system but in my tent, hand water > pump and drippers > bottom wicking > bottom feeding.

Wrong top feeding causes root rot but from another angle top feeding water goes down but if their young as ive said when bigger water in saucers as root will have moisture when we feed and i dont use soil its coco coir so whos right. Id do it my way as sil is so yesterday

Baking soda (small amount!) but out of curiosity, why are you needing to bump it up?

just stumbled on your thread, a lot of folks are real worried you're going to burn your babies with hot manure. Manures and composts have very high nutrient content, they work best if you just top dress with small amounts or making a tea with some to dissolve those organics into some water and feed their plants. If you are amending into the whole soil you only need about a half a cup of fully composed manure to mix in. Yeah, the stuff is that loaded with nutrients.

Strange outlook are u against coco coir ? Yo know i also heard carboated waters good for plants but th ph is too high just like its flat spring water so im using my soft tap water in glasgow scotland now but ph could be 6.8 but i let it breath for 48hrs to get rid of chlorine and fluroide added. Im advised to get a ph down powder to bring it to 5.8 whats ur thoughts on that oh and sorry for butting in but i know ur name and i think u know ur stuff quite well. My prob with soils are high ph bugs and u just dont know what lurks and if its clean. Im moving onto a 70/30 mix cococoir with pearlite but prob be more 85/15 after i add what ive left in bag that was 100% coco coir. Have u any experiance with this medium as people say you can use the leftover coir again which im not sure about?

I did but I do real hydro.and if you put it in your nutes ph will spike.
You can use the nutes for anything after mixing.

I don't do Coco because all the prep work and all the nutes wasted.

In this way, you can use the power of an explosive to RAM the nutrients into the soil. With my method I wouldn't worry about overwatering or measuring anything or ph or EC or whatever letters you got. And it has safety blow off holes. I'd put a basket in there to catch the weed once it comes back down.
