House and Garden / Coco question

[Hydropimp]

Submerge the pot for 5-8 min. And that was to kill
Ra now I pretreat before I plant and have been free
Of bugs for at least a yr. Just remember to retreat
At 10 days later. Kill everything before going in to flo
All coco comes with bugs that I have gotten.

Also by a couple of bags of coco and leave them in your
Trunk on hot days to kill bugs instead of using your oven.

Let me know how it goes

Fla homie I have use it at 50ml/gl sounds crazy but it
Worked and retreated at 5ml/gl 10 days later the only
Thing I notice is the girls droop alittle because I submerge
The pot this is in veg only

DaaYuuuuM SoN!!!!



Was the 50 ml because of an infestation already?


I have only had to use it as a preventive measure so far......knock on wood.

So far my girls doing ok other then two plants that have a random leaves like the ones I am attaching
What do u think that is?

Looks like a Mg deficiency starting. I would foliair spray with some diluted calmag and add some Epsom salt to your solution.

 

[Coconutz]

theres no way of telling from a pic of a leaf.
you have to show the whole plant.
knowing the history here also helps a bit.
he was overfeeding and using calmag + epsom.
the last thing in the world it could be is mg-
you see how dark it is?
anyway, show pics of the whole plant.
if the cal/mag balance was out of whack why would you spray calmag instead of just mag?
theres no way that plant needs to shootup anymore N

 

[Ziggaro]

Are those leaves bluish?
I wonder if you added too much cal and locked out the small amount of P HG has in their nutes

Stress from overnute would be my guess. When plants start spitting 3 finger leaves, it's a sign of stress IMO, some genetics more than others.

IME, don't chase the phantom defs, or suspect something in the root zone (definitely inspect your root zone and your runoff but don't get hung up on it) just feed them 1.1-1.2 of 6/9 and much of it goes away.

Truthfully the biggest problem I have after making the switch is making sure everything gets the right amount of water. It's so refreshing!

i have been givin' the girls h&g for years. follow the chart, i tweak it a little bit, and also add cal/mag. aslo sm-90 with food and folly bi weekly. works fine in greenhouse. always nice tight ones man

I just want a little clarification. I only feed/water my girls on average every other day in 15 gallon root pouches. The last harvest averaged 34 ounces a plant... should I be using smaller containers?

 

[DocMicron]

Wow, I can't believe I have been here for 7 years and that was my first post. I have learned a lot here. Big thanks to Coconutz.

If it works better for you to use a lot more coco to have to water less frequently thats cool.
You could probably get the same or better yields in smaller pots fed more regularly.
It might require an adjustment in your current nutrient levels.
Some people can feed higher when they let the plant go a few days before feeding again.
I prefer atleast twice a day in smaller pots with a lower ec.
I cant deal with large pots in veg and I dont want to have to veg in my flower room or throw them into bigger pots the first day of flower.
It all depends on what works out for you.
The coco likes to be wet and the roots like extra o2.
When you feed more often it keeps everything more stable in the rootzone.
They dont like the ec and ph to constantly shift everytime it gets wet/dry or when a new additive blasts them with something hot
