RUFUS HOUND Posted January 18 Author Share Posted January 18 (edited) rightyho I have some figures so were not pissing in the wind, my tap water is EC=355 tap + 1ml epsom solution EC=560 tap + 2ml epsom solution EC=780 so my starting EC = 800ish before adding any feed or seaweed - doesnt leave much room as seedling EC=1,1.2 based on feed chart or am I getting this all wrong?

Your water is high but ok. Fuck the chart off. Start around 1.0 then 1.2, then 1.5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUFUS HOUND Posted January 18 Author Share Posted January 18 wont I will still have same problem, my corrected water EC =0.8 that leaves only 0.2 for feed. I'll just stick to epsom spray while they are little and use that epsom 0.5=EC for food. PS Im not spraying with 250g epsom mix - only a teaspoon in 1L for spray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUFUS HOUND Posted January 18 Author Share Posted January 18 made up 1L feed - 1ml A+1ml B+tap water+epsom mix for a total EC=1250 no room for seaweed reduced ph to 6 and ran 100ml through each, which gave a nice bit of runoff. I measured the runoff and the EC=3600 and ph=6.2 - I wont take this as accurate as dish had coco and old salt in it, so I'll get a proper one in a day or so.

RUFUS HOUND Posted January 19 Author Share Posted January 19 The TBL are looking good so far - should be ready for a pot up this week, checked a couple of days ago but aborted that as it wasnt fully rooted and all the coco started to fall out. no feed tonight - will do it tomorrow with 100ml again no3 variegation doesnt look that bad out of the tent (last pic) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUFUS HOUND Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 Day 19 - potted up the TBL into 3L pots I put the coco in the tent last night to warm through and gave the holes a good sprinkle in "mykos" again - seems to working as had good rootage but I will let you be the judge of that! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUFUS HOUND Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 forgot to mention, I watered the plants the night before potting up, as it helps hold the medium together. I put about 400ml of feed (EC=1.2 PH=6) in the new 3L pots before I got run off I might have the start of a mg def, so will keep a close watch to see if it worsens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUFUS HOUND Posted February 3 Author Share Posted February 3 things have been going nice and steady like, been feeding upto 0.5L each giving a bit of run off (3L pots) EC=1500 ph=6 every 2 days photos from a couple of days ago and the roots from last night - time to pot up again LST day 24 Day 31 3L roots day 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUFUS HOUND Posted February 3 Author Share Posted February 3 Potted up from 3L to 7L deep rose pots, these are all I had at hand before they go into the 12L buckets The 7L deep pots are only a bit wider than the 3L but twice as high, so this time round I mixed the "mykos" into the coco rather than sprinkling on the surface, Increased the ppfd by lowering the light so its approx 400 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUFUS HOUND Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 I went to water/feed tonight and the pots were still pretty heavy, so I gave it a miss tonight and will have a try again tomorrow bumped the min temp up to 26'C as its gonna get cold next few days, plus growth seems a tad slow, so an extra bit of warmth wont do any harm. I might even leave them in the 7L if I they can fill out a bit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shumroom Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 You’ll be able to grow a pretty good size plant in a 7l pot of coco, but by the time it’s in mid flower it’ll require multiple fertigations per day I’m assuming that you’re going to be flowering the 3 of them at the same time in the 120 x 60? If you want to get away with feeding no more than once per day, you’ll be best getting them into 12l a couple of weeks before you want to start flowering them. Or the other option would be some kind of timed auto feeding system The TBL I grew all responded well to multiple topping, so don’t be afraid to pinch those growing tips out to make nice bushy girls Atb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
