This Be How Dirbag Do...

Sorry man, I got nothing. I'm trying to avoid that issue by using stuff like rockwool and coco that gets multiple daily waterings. I used to have the issue you're having with my promix grows. In fact I've found it's one of the main benefits of hydroponic...

In fact I've found it's one of the main benefits of hydroponic growing, is all the plants are getting fed on a pretty regular schedule that's easy to monitor values going in and coming out.

Its not really an issue its more of an upgrade from fumbling. Moving from paper to computer was an upgrade no I need a program or template I'm just looking for Idea's.

Thanks man, me too! It's my happy place big time.

I gotta say I love having the time to just let these do their thing. That sucked having to keep the last one on a tight schedule. Pot just sometimes does things on it's own time...

My father passed away last week so I had to make a trip back to Nova Scotia for a few days. Rest easy old man..

While I was away I left the plants in my sisters care... home now but so tired I havent bothered to go check on them. One thing I'll say about travelling during this pandemic, is the seat selection on the planes was unbeatable lol. I came home in a roughly 400 seater Boeing 787 with about 40 people on board. It was a bit surreal.. Never been on such a big plane that was so empty. Had a full row of 9 seats to myself hahaha. Got to pick which side of the plane I wanted to look out of and got some spectacular views of the Rocky mountains from 40 thousand feet. Not a cloud in the sky all the way from Toronto to Vancouver.

First of all condolences regarding your dad☺ Thanks for sharing your pics....

Ok farmers... I held out for a couple weeks trying to remedy this situation on my own, but ol'dirtbag is in trouble lol. Ive asked my local buddies what might be going on and so far I havent had anyone come up with anything, we are stumped, so I'm turning to you my fellow online growers.

Plants are in pure canna coco, pre charged with 1ec calmag for 4 hrs.
1 gallon pots
watering every other day for the first week and now once per day, with about 15-20% runoff.
feeding 1.3-1.4ec ph 5.8-6.0, temp 68f
nutrient is rainwater (0ppm) with .3ec calmag and 1 ec botanicare pbp.
Light is 1000w MH
temp 23-27 celcius, RH 55-65%


The plants are growing but they just arent greening up like they should. They have a pale lime green hue to them. Does anything jump out to anyone here? Am I missing something stupid? I'm just not very experienced with coco and only have one buddy that uses it, and so far hes been stumped too.
Any questions or spitballs are welcome.

Last pic is of a joint I smoked last night. Sharing because, I just cant believe the resin that comes off this platinum cookies. The paper is bloody soaked half inch from the cherry! lol. Unreal..

Condolences man I'm sorry to hear that. Mine died a bit over 10 years ago and it still pains me to think about him gone.
I flew back to Seattle from Hawaii one year on a 747 in June with only 2 other passengers. After take off ( I was at the back of the plane) a Stewardess came back and said there's no point sitting back here by yourself and took me upstairs to first class where I had the entire section to myself and the stewardess free drinks and snacks. First and only time being up top on the 747's

Appreciate the condolences and suggestion. I was already supplementing iron while they were yellowing, but I think I have it figured out though. I think it was a combination of watering too frequently as well as messing up my ratio with Calmag. Not sure which was more responsible but since changing those 2 things theyve greened right up.

Jeebus, even from last night theyve grown and gotten greener.

My good buddy dropped by last night (and yeah we kept a safe distance) and I had a chance to really pick his brain. He is the dude who inspired me to try coco again since he gets such amazing results in it. I've seen him pull some massive plants out of 1 gallon pots, it just looks so wrong lol. Got a few pointers and it seems like I'm on track and already doing much of what he suggested. And he brought me by some samples of his latest crop. This was one he grew, cant remember the name but very nice smoke.

Potent is an understatement. It's like hash, but without all those pesky resin head membranes lol. I've had this stuff test over 90% thc in a gas chromatograph several times. It varies slightly from strain to strain though, but I expect this violator is up there.

Well, I'm surprised that they are doing this well all of a sudden, but I'll take it.
Figured they are ready for the next step, I got the second light fired up and I spread them apart to give them some room to grow into. Another couple weeks or so of veg left I figure.

Thanks man. They've got a little droop cause I just watered, but they're looking much better. They're holding steady with a feed of 1.1ec ph 6, minimal runoff is 1.2-1.3ec, ph 5.7. I think by the end of the week I'll be feeding twice a day, they're already drying the pots back quite a bit daily.

Feels good to bring it back around.

I'm in need of a bit of help in the ppm dept. I've been using my newish toy the ppm meter and it gives me an indication of where my nutrient levels are at ....right so far? lol with 190 being low for a 1.5 month old plant after a water cycle would you feed it? or let it stay there for another 3-4-5 days until it needs fluid again then feed as usual? ....

My GH nutes recommend a water- feed - water - feed cycle. would you feed it back to back when the numbers are low like that? What I've done a few times now is just feed it immediately afterwards and flood the water out of it. I water with 1 gallon read the numbers and if low just give it another gallon of feed and read the numbers which then get me up into the 500-600 range.

I'm just a bit concerned about the dreaded lockout by feeding back to back regardless of the readings.
I'd never of been concerned about this before, ignorance is bliss, but with this dam new toy I now have more to learn.

Any help would be great Thanks.
