these are pictures of the plant i am having issues with. the others seem fine, what do you guys think.

as said before been feeding them canna A+B EC 1.8 then flush every other watering with EC 1. ph 5.9
 
I've been feeding my plant with 1.4ec and she looks healthy green and it's a bit bigger than yours in the picture. I suppose she could do with a bit lower feed strength?

Just diving in ^_^

ye i have a tendency to over nute, going to start trying out H3ads 6/9 formula so that should cut that out to. im also going to let that plant dry out a little more before i water it. i think i have been keeping it to moist.

dive away WW some times its hard to see whats staring you in the face and when your looking at them every day its hard to see the gradual change

day 22 of flower

i checked run off ph and EC. the run off EC was 3.2 :dunno: ph was was 5.5

i did check run off values two weeks ago and everything was ok apart from ph been up at 6.3

the feed solution is EC 1.6 ph 5.9

i have started to feed it a weaker strength solution and i checked EC ph again this morning and runoff is down to 2.4 EC ph is 5.5

hopefully getting the run off EC down to a more stable figure the plants will continue to be healthy

You didnt mention earlier in the other thread that you fed at 2.4...
That probably locked them out pretty good.
The 1.8 ec and drying out was probably the issue you were seeing before.
Id recommend you flush again with a .2-.5 solution and then get them around 1.2 for awile.
If they start to get light you can bump it back up to around 1.5 or so.
With coco you just want to keep the cation bank filled. You dont want to give them more than they need

sorry i didnt think that would be an issue as it was a few weeks ago.

thanks again coconutz for all of your advice. ill try get two watering's in per day from now on, yes ill keep watering at the lower EC for the next day or two hopefully by then it will have dropped to a more reasonable level.

im amazed how quickly the build up can occur, ill have to keep a closer eye on it. the run off looks red. this has happened to me in the past but it still worked out ok.

A little update from my recent grows. im still growing out the hog and critical hog.

ill be popping Fruit spirit and pineapple kush seeds from royal queen seeds this week.

Critical Hog from Th Seeds. This plant had such a nice fruity aroma and is potent to smoke.

Came from dwc..never going back bro. Coco all the way from now on. If u automate it or hand feed every day I think it trumphs dwc. Im doing an outside soiless vs coco run just fing @ outside and at day 14 or 20 (im not sure I check trichs)...the coco has 2 times the formation already.

ye i have liked coco, but the thoughts of watering running through pipes and the chances of leaks etc. but the dtw threads that are on IC are very impressive. DTW would suit me better because i have an understanding of coco already.

my setup still needs adjustments and is far from dialed in. i dont have an intake fan. would more fresh air rather than the out take pulling fresh air in help with healthier plants more yield ?. temps can be an issue to. im in a rented property and have inspections every 3 to 6 months.

Keep it neg. pressure ... I always want exhaust going strong especially if heat issues are present..plus it will help prevent mold. If your asking if an additional intake will help I seem to get the same temp either way in smaller tents so save your money. If its a bigger tent id deff add an intake.

Dude. I'm kind of jealous. It was 91 here yesterday. Living in California... I don't even know if we get winter anymore. I think it gets stuck in Missouri and doesn't make it out here until March.
