no matter which strain, medium, lights, nutrients etc I use, the roots are always shit and the plants don't very tall. my last grow, I got about 60g of 7 plants (critical 2.0, critical cheese, special kush #1) Can any help?

Given the amount of information available, and assuming no bugs, I'm going to say watering practices are not sound or the amount of nutrients/products used is too much. I'll give my 2 cents below on what I would do and hope it helps.

what info could I possibly give other than temp and humidity? like I said no matter which strain, medium, lights, nutrients etc I use.

The Last Grow.
4x4 tent
intake and extractor
600w hps
10L pots
coc0 70% perlite 30%
Temp around 80
Humidity around 45

canna A&B
Superthrive
rhyzotonic
big bud
pk 13/14
overdrive
I water between 7.5% & 10% pot size

Try to get your temp down a bit if you can but if not it should still be workable no prob. I see that you are using coco/perlite and I like that. I would stick with that or personally go 100% coco.

I like to keep it simple so I'm going to critique your nutrient line up.

I don't like superthrive(never seen it do anything useful) so I would ditch that. Big bud, Pk13/14, and overdrive overlap as they are all pretty much PK boosters. I would ditch the AN stuff and stick with the pk13/14. Trust me canna AB, and pk 13/14 is all you will need. I suppose you can keep rhyzotinic in there for root health. In my experience using too much PK in the past has negatively affected my roots.

Feel free to check out my tutorial for solid coco roots. Here is a link below. It outlines good watering practices that should help you get quality roots. If the roots are good so are the fruits!

60* is too cold. Roots stall about 65* and under and won't grow or uptake. You really want a max of 10* difference drom day and night temps.

I'm telling you buddy:D check out that link I put down and consider the advice on nutrients I gave. It will help you. Good watering practices are by far in my opinion the most important to have dialed in. The plants can deal with other conditions not in the sweet spot as long as they are being watered and fed correctly.

Here are just a few examples.

Hey guys keep it chill. No need for language. Please keep it calm and respectful. I'll be editing that out. Anymore and you guys won't just be warned :smoking:

Sometimes there are misunderstandings when we write things. We are all farmers here okay!
