The more info that you can provide about your grow, the better Me, Cris, and others will be able to chime in and help. Maybe talk about what you are growing in? Dirt? Organic? Soiless? Perlite? DWC? What size pots? How long they've been in those pots? What strain? Topped? Fim'd? Trained in any way? Started from seed, or clone? Water from the faucet? Rain water? RO water? Please dont think that im trying to badger or harass you in anyway shape or form. Im only trying to help you, and encourage you to share as much info as possible about your grow, so that we can share with you from our own past mistakes, and experiences in the most informational way possible!

I'm using general hydroponic flora series bloom grow and micro in a 8 BUCKET DWC WITH A HEADER

 

[Leopold Bloom]

I'm just starting them there germination right now

 

[Leopold Bloom]

And I'm using 4x8 grow room 6.5 tall using 2 800 watt bestva sorry about spertica question

 

[Chris Scorpio]

I use same base nutes

What % of manuf suggested are u using now??

 

[Leopold Bloom]

What u mean manfu? I haven't put nothing in them they are germinating I got them in my paper towel in distilled water I soaked them about 15 hrs and started them today

I know with coco and GH once the seedlings are about a week old I start feeding 1/4 strength of the manufacturer's recommendations and ramp it up based on how the plants respond. DWC I have no clue about

 

[Leopold Bloom]

My system is top feed I use growit clay pebbles so I will start them out light

 

[Ganjagrowergu]

I was taught to always start ¼ strength in hydro. I do Hempy and that's what I feed daily from the begining and ramp up to ½, and then ¾ and then full strength IF they need it.

 

[Leopold Bloom]

Thanks I will let you all know how they do still have a long way to go

Manufacturer suggested strength


As others say, 1/4 starting out, I use the same nutrients and stay at 1/2 of suggested strength

 

[Leopold Bloom]

So would jug water from store be better then faucet water

 

[Chris Scorpio]

Need to know what yer water is

When unsure, get RO water

 

[Leopold Bloom]

May be dumb questions how do you get RO water

 

[Leopold Bloom]

so basically you could put a water filtration system on your faucet would work then you would have ro right

 

[Stunned]

or you can go to your nearest crappy tire and buy huge jugs of it for cheap

How big is your plant,age? 1.2 ec in the early stages of growth,then up it as it grows. Dont go over 1.8 ec as it will be too much,unless your plant is large.

It's kinda hard to give advice based on what you provided. What are your starting ppm? Are you using straight nutrients or are you adding other supplements like cal mag or silica?

I don't like RO water because I have a good water source and i ran into deficenies using it. When you remove the buffers the ph becomes unstable. Lots of people have success with it but it didn't work for me.

I would not exceed 400 to 600 ppms of actual nutrients on top of your base water. Just my 2 cents.
