Water pH and ppm?

Deadstill · Aug 26, 2020

These don't look all that bad. I'm am wondering what your watering technique is like. Especially in hard pots, I always water until I see about 15-25% runoff. I will water them very slowly to make sure the soil is completely saturated. It is important to completely saturate your soil each time you water so you're not making wet and dry spots in your pots. I usually pick up and heft the pot after it has been fully watered, get a feel for it's weight. I won't water again until it's lost at least 50% of it's weight and I stick my fingers into the top 2 or 3 inches of soil and it feels dry. Usually people get confused with watering/overwatering. Overwatering isn't so much "adding too much water at one time" as it is "adding water too often"..

Other than that looks good keep up the good work and good luck!

They look a bit over-watered, otherwise not too bad. Agree with @Deadstill.

Is that last pic getting yellow between veins? Or is it just the lighting?³

Waxwingz · Aug 26, 2020

Thanks all! Yeah some of the leaves seem to have yellowing veins. I know that’s a deficiency of some kind? Just was hoping that as I start to feed, some of these issues would be resolved?

Unless you plan on starting flower now, you might want to move into 3 gal pots. Then you won't need to feed for another 3 weeks.

I was actually going to up pot them before I put them into flower. I have 5 gallons waiting. But I since it’s just the second week of veg I was going to wait?

How long until you flip lights?

Slap · Aug 26, 2020

My first plant had that appearance and I over watered then over fertilized. Then she turned he!

Waxwingz · Aug 26, 2020

I’d like to veg for two more weeks, then flip, depends on how big they get and how well I lst

I usually wait at least a week after transplant to flip. Your roots should be healthy before switching. Sooner you transplant the better imo. Gl keep us updated.

Hey all!

So I transplanted yesterday to 5 gallon. Used ffof. Plants still looking a bit wacked out, but I remain hopeful.

I had just stared the feeding a schedule a week before transplant. My question is do I need to continue with that? The fox farms trio? Will the soil give the needed nutrients? If so, do I just start the ff schedule after a few week? My plants are looking like they’re showing signs of deficiencies. I’m a bit lost on this feeding thing
