So after a few failed attempts at smaller and more plants I'm going from 18 plants in 8lt pots back to 8 plants in 22lt pots.
2 x LSDxGreen Crack. From an Aussie breeder
2 x Exotic Thai x Green Crack. From the same Aussie breeder
2 x Strawberry Candy — Bloom seeds.

So had some family problems with the father in law having a bad stroke about 4 months ago so didn't have much time with the plants as my wife was back and forth to the hospital almost daily and I was looking after the kids. The

grow finished but was nothing special at all!
I got 3 cuttings off a mate about 6 weeks ago and planted 11 seeds at various stages over the last 5 weeks. Not sure why I did but I did so now I have 14 plants from 2 weeks old to 6 weeks old.
I will use this diary to finish the 14 which I will put to 12/12 in 2 to 3 weeks and try to update weekly from here now life isn't so busy.
The only change I have made is I'm changing over to perlite from soil as the last 16 grows have been done in soil and I used perlite about 20 years ago with a 1000w HPS so I'm curious to see how it goes with LED and more modern nutes.
Using Green Planet duel fuel nutes! Some are a bit over fed some are a bit under fed as I'm still playing with EC before I flip them!!

Hay mate I've been alternating the pH between 5.8 to 6.3 each water.
Few look a bit hungry and a few look a bit over fed with dark tips and slight claw.
Been about 23 years since I used perlite so I'm still playing with feeding.
Bigger plants look a bit hungry and smaller look a bit over fed!
What do you think mate??
Got 5 different strains so that's not helping me either!

5,8 all day long.
Are you feeding every day, no plain water ever?
Full strength nutrients according to the schedule?
It must be the flash or led as the pics look like they are all hungry. 5 strains doesn't help but at this stage they should be lush green.

The bigger plants are getting just under full strength the smaller are getting 1/4 strength!!
Have given a couple of ph water feeds to the smaller ones when they started to look a bit over fed.

Can you take a pic in natural light please.
All those girls look hungry.
Perlite is like running Hydro.
No soil so 5.8 with about 800 ppm minimum right now.
All of them need more nutrients.
No plain water.
Imagine running dwc on plain water, similar here.
It only gets what you give it.
Twice a day to keep the roots wat wouldn't hurt but let's just get them fed.
Pics in clear light?
Hope you had a good weekend Amigo. :ciao:
Talk soon.

Unfortunately that's the best light I can get pics in. Yeah I agree the bigger ones can take more.
I only gave some of the smaller ones water because they were showing signs of N tox.
Must just be the camera because they are quite dark green.
But you can also see slight cal mag problems in the pics to.

Yep they are hungry my friend. :Namaste:
800 ppm minimum ever day from now on.
Until you get them onto the complete diet for your nutrients. Do you know how to give them 800 ppm?
Do you have the full line and schedule for your nutrients?
