4k coco vs UC

Im feeding twice a day. Next round Im going with 2 gal cloth pots with plants to feed more often

Sounds good man, if I could make a small suggestion. Drop one or two plants in ONE gal cloth pots to run next to your 2g pots so you can compare the growth of the two. With auto watering coco, smaller the better in most all cases.

Was just thinking you were due for an update :cool: looks great by the way!!! What EC you feeding plants lately? I either need to stop checking run off or really go light on the feeds. Will update my thread in a couple hours before lights on. Can't wait to see your final results!!

lol I guess, sorry I'm naggin' :)

I use both the digital timers and a cycle timer. I prefer the digital ones for this though as I prefer not to water when the lights are off. 4x lights on.

Hey. Since you feed 4 times a day what EC do you feed at?

up to 1.2 in mid flower

do you ever check run off?

I think what I did was not feed aggresively enough in the beginning and then over feed too much the last 3 weeks. I've been feeding 1.4-1.6 3 times a day and EC at run off has been around 2.6!!! I'm starting week 4 flower and I've dropped my feed yesterday to 0.8EC twice a day. Going to check run off in 2 days and see where I'm at. If I notice run off EC down I'll add back my third feed. If after another 2-3 days I find run off still declining then I'll bump up my feed to 1.0..... Lots of things being learned here on my first coco grow!!:tiphat:
