Ghost_In _A_Jars's Multi Strain Coco Adventure

[Keeno]

I agree with 2-scoops. You need to drop the calmag and keep them with a balanced base nutrient. Cal mag is required sometimes when your plants are working overtime. Not sure if it's overwatering but I can see you have a P and N def as well as other signs showing like calcium and magnesium but that could and probably will be due to being low on NPK. Check out Mulder's chart to see the relationships.



Low phosphorus will affect the uptake of magnesium and that's why you normally see the red stems and pelote when you see magnesium def. Throwing more magnesium at the issue will cause lockout eventually as your plants won't be taking it up and it will build up in the media.

Cal mag is only going in for 2 days, then move the A and B up. It's more of a load up than a consistent feed.

That makes more sense buddy as if they been low for a while then the coco can hang onto cations. I would also consider giving these a foliar of some nitrozyme, formulex and fulvic acid to give them a shot of the good stuff they can use immediately as it will take a few days for the cogs to start turning.

Epsom salts foliar tomorrow but I'll get him some Fulvic sent as it's got a load of goodies in it.

This "load up" I use a couple times in veg and in first 2 weeks of flower. 2 days at 0.5ml cal mslag on top of base nutes, 2nd day Epsom salts foliar to help uptake. It normally loads them enough to not need anything in flower in the form of dutty cal mag. His background is similar to mine so hopefully this will work for him to. I dislike cal mag, especially when needed in mid to late flower.

Can’t say a huge amount has happened, but before we disappear off to the big smoke for the weekend….
Gave these a small bit of feed at the same rate as before.
Water at 231ppm
Fed rhizo at .5m/l - 263ppm
Part A at .25m/l - 296ppm
Part B at .25m/l - 314ppm
Given 500ml each so they should be good until I get back on Sunday possibly with a fiancé in tow…. If she says yes

Trouble with just epsom salts is it's just magnesium and these girls need all of the things :) the fulvic acid helps the plants digest everything. The calmag makes perfect sense when the plants are healthy and gobbling up everything as you can end up with a deficit.

I didn't realise you was mentoring @Keeno and if that's the case, I'm sure you'll be able to put this right in no time fella.

Nice setup you have there. I like the look of the pot system, it fills the tent nicely. I’ve got 4 nft tanks in mine and it’s a bit cumbersome and awkward getting to the back tanks.
Subbing up to this with keen interest.
Good luck hope it all goes well

Quick update with the new 200x600 filter up and hanging around.
Renewed sump to ph 6 and 1m/l a and b.

Lights on/off pics after a foliar spray with some ‘organic’ fulvic and humic acid.
Mixed half a tea spoon into 500ml of warm water. Strainer off any excess bits with a tea towel.
Lightly sprayed and this is the result after about an hour.
I’ll update again at the weekend when they’ve had a few days to settle.

Fulvic spray seems to have done the trick!
I’ll update again when there has been some decent growth. Hopefully won’t take a lot longer and I’ll get the net in there.

Post holiday update….
5 days away and there’s a ton to do! I only just got into the last bit of lst and I think I’ll have to finish the rest tomorrow.
So, now starts 2 days of cal mag loading before flipping to flower on Mondays light cycle.
I’ve added .4m/l and sprayed with a light Epsom salt foliar feed.
Once flipped I’ll refresh the feed tank with 1m/l of a and b and .25ml of canna pk boost.
Happy to be back!

Oh! And the little bag is the arm that got knocked off and I just poked into a zippy bag of damp coco and left hanging on the side of the pots. Checked today and we have roots!
