Whats your EC? Almost certain you need to up the nutrients… backing the light off a bit will help them catch up

Oh and read this just to cover your watering since that could also be part of it.

HOW TO WATER COCO FOR BEST RESULTS.

Ok writing this cause i see this issue often and rather have a thread to link than explain this each time. This is not my work but a collection of info from many members here and I have put into practice myself. So first off COCO is NOT soil. For best results we want to keep it saturated...

I’m ruining a drip system I’m still learning how much to feed them but per day but I’m using Athena feeding program and doing exactly what is says to use. EC and ph says to be perfect on my troll master. It look like too much light if that possible because the plants on the far edges are way greening then the ones in the middle.

Thank for your quick response !!! I am following the Athena blended feeding chart. My ph and EC are where they should be. Idk if I should add more of a certain item I’m also using power si! Appreciate the help thank again I posted videos and pictures of the troll master and veg room!

You have too much light. Dim your rig by 10%
Do you know how to calculate DLI? You need to use DLI because it will change your feed schedules.

Yea they look hungry. The charts not accounting for genes.

Bump EC up to 2.0 and increase your feed volumes.

take a sample of the run off and test the EC and PH then let me know

I think they may be hungry because I don’t have much run off at all!!! Some trays have none and some have a lil bit . But I did dim the lights and raise them up more because the ones of the farthest corner almost seems to be the greenest. But it’s hard to test the ph of the run off when there’s Danm near is none to collect.. I posted pics of all three trays they are 4x8

Yeah sounds like you need to feed more often.

if you follow the thread i linked i think it will solve your issues

Mann I appreciate you consistent feedback!! I looked at the thread and if I’m reading correctly you say 250 per day for 1-gal bags? I have one gallon bags wit perlite. I timed my droppers and It took 6min 12sec to get 250ml and I have them being fed for 6min currently! So basically I’m feeding em the right amount then? But I feed em 9 times difrrrtnt time! So I do 5 times for 1min and 4 times for 15sec. Total of 6 mins.

Yeah base the number of feeds off of the run off you get… so if you feed 250ml you want to see 10-20% of that as runoff so 25-50ml. You can test it on just a couple plants and should be good… just put them on something to catch the runoff and test periodically. Then you can test the ph and EC of the runoff to see whats going in and out to dial in your nutrients

Updat they are slot greener i dimmed down the lights and raised the EC a little bit there are still a little green bot not nearly as bad before

looking better… now just need to ensure the runoff ph is not high. If it is high the light green will be a slight iron deficiency. If its good add a gram per gal of mag sulphate and that should clear it up.

Looks a little dry to be coco

Ok thank you!!! And another question I’m trimming down “lollipoping” the plants before flower I put a video do you think I’m over doing it? It might not look like it but I’m taking a lot off! Anything that you would improve please lmk thanks again!!

Nope looks good I wouldn’t do any less in that style of grow

Great this my first grow my friend told me to do it like this just wanted another opinion I just finished the trellis on one of the trays

 

[Pgarden1]

Are they worse saving?!?!? Didn’t get water for two days pump shut off and wasn’t here and couldn’t tell on my cameras!!!
