How to grow in Coco: Feed schedule

[Cultivator]

So should I cut down the big bud for week 3 to keep the EC down?

Run the bud ignitor until around day 21 of flower. Then switch to big bud. Keep your ec no higher than 1.8ec in total. It's possible to go higher but more for advanced growers who know how to time feeds and push plants. Less is definitely more when it comes to feed strengths. It's the least important thing in the grow that can cause the most amount of problems.

Yes it's been a while. I haven't been around in a while. Tend to stay away these days as I shared alot back in the day and so many keyboard experts now, just like most social media sites, it burns my head out. However I do like to call in from time to time and help people out or just say hello. Hope you are keeping well.

I totally get what your saying brotha. I disappeared from here in 2014 I’d say. Only to log back in late 2019 to check things out. I’m doing well culti. Hope you are doing the same!

You can use the machines wet or dry. You get a better cut wet but means weed doesnt dry correctly and damaged buds really. Dry trim doesnt trim great and lose alot. Was a waste of 6500£. I'm back to old fashioned scissors.

 

[Derbybud]

Wow that has to be some work with your big harvests. Trim hell.

 

[Cultivator]

Ha yeah. I just pay people to do it now lol.

@Cultivator think it would be worth installing RO Water filter my EC is 0.75 from the tap. I've got £250 spare to play with
it's either a RO Water filter or Humidity controller to go with my humidifier - Hitting temps od 28-29c with 35RH in VEG

What would you buy if you had to pick mate?

 

[Cultivator]

When I lived in spain my tap water was 0.9 ec and I grew great weed there. But you really should flush with a cleaner water than that.

Humidity is important too. RH is really low in UK at this time of year and it can cause quite a few issues. If I had to choose I'd go with the humidity controller and use a hardware nutrient.

nice one thought it would be more important, Problem i have now is that they say you can only run RO water with Humidifier so i would need to look at getting ro filter anyway unless you don't run it with RO water?, Also with the high 0.75ec would you use calmag or drop that out?

 

[Cultivator]

If you using led you would still need it. But if no led run without, if plants show they need it you can always add it. I dont use humidifiers really and when I have I just ran tap water. It will just mean the lifespan of the humidifier will be less because of mineral build up.

THANK'S mate, I'll skip the RO water. Don't know if you have seen these products but these i will be running next bit light great white shark but a lot cheaper once the colony has started the BactorrS13 & TricorrP5 will feed them nicely will run this once a week and then the other stuff will be setup on drippers with a run to waste system for multiple feeds a day. Cost price for my small garden is £40

When using a resevoir, would you reccomend adding yucca powder and botanicare hydroguard?
