Second grow - trying hydro in coco.

I topped off the reservoir. They're getting about 1325ppm and 6.25 Ph using the veg+bloom, life and stax.

I also noticed the morning feeding did not have anything drain, so I've added another daily feeding. They're getting every 4.5 hours now instead of every 6 hours. While there's light.

Thank you.

Here's the next generation. Finally a seed with a known genealogy. I purchased a few Skywalker seeds.

These take so much attention. More pruning/lollipoping and super cropping. They do look like they're starting the stretch right away.

I've been continuing with 4 feeds each day. I dropped the timing to 6 seconds on every 3.5 hours in the light. I'll have to go to 7 second soon.
Ph is about 6. Ppm 1400ish. Using the veg+bloom, life and stax. These flower so fast I'll go to the shine next week.

I found even more that really needed to come out under those huge leaves! This thing is producing more branches under the canopy. I'm getting piles of branches and leaves almost every day.

After a week, no budsign. Not surprising, give it another week. They have grown a few inches. They don't stretch too much. The pruning and supercropping are paying off, I think.

I'm pretty happy with this grow so far. I think the plants are looking pretty good. I am, however, seeing some color on the leaves that's indicating something.

What do these colored marks on my leaves mean? They appear most anywhere on the plant. On the top or bottom or middle. Most of the leaves are very green.

Maybe I'll add the pearlite to one or 2 and see the difference.

I've been using the coco for about 6-7 years now and I've added perlite in the beginning but if you're using new quality coco you don't need it. If you reuse like I do you'll find it helps.

Just found your page and haven't looked ahead but from experience I know you're gonna have some killer flower. I'm gonna go peak

Before I look any further are you fertigating 3-5 x's a day with 10+% run off? This usually happens when the plant isn't being properly fertigated. This method works the best when you're keeping the coco wet and rinsed through with nute water on a regular basis.

I use to see more of this when I was working and missed fertigations. I'm currently not on auto fertigation but will be adding again to my greenhouse.

They are getting 4 feedings each day. I've not measured the run off, but i do get some every feeding.

I've also adjusted the feedings. I'm replacing the Stax with Shine. I've upped the nutes to about 1500ppm at 6.1ph. And I had to add a second to the feedings as well since I had no run off this morning. I might need to add another.

I am getting some very light burning on a few tips. I'm going to slightly increase the nutes - I'll go for a 6.0 to 6.3 ph with around 1600ppm. I seem to be pushing them just a little. With my high CO2 here (with the house closed it's usually around 1000 on the CO2 meter - about 700 if I open windows up and up to 2k if I use the oven).
At 2.5 weeks in flower, they're looking pretty nice, I think.

They're liking the higher nutrient dosage.
The one on the left stretched a bunch more than the one on the right.

I'm thinking I'll need the scrog. Not too hold them up, to spread them apart.
