    Right, ok. It's not a brand I know but lots of people are able to grow with dirt cheap nutrients because they can read what the plant needs. Less is more with nutrients. You'd much rather have an underfed plant as opposed to an overfed plant. Easy to add more, tough to take away!

    I'd stay away from feeding according to a schedule. If you keep a close eye on your plants (and ask here!) you'll get to the bottom of any deficiencies without doing additional damage by perhaps adding more nutes (when less is needed) or cutting out all the nutes (when they need a strong dose of nitrogen, for argument's sake)

    We really need pics, bru

    Have a look at some other threads on here and pass a comment or two (without spamming!) so you can get your post count up to 10 and you can let us see the two girls. Also, do yourself a favour and read the forum rules so you don't get into bother. You're not allowed to post outside links on this forum, only links within the forum

    One more thing would you recommend switching to something like General hydroponic nutrients?? The selection down here in the banana Republic is very limited but the basic 3 set nutrients from general hydroponics are...

    Only through a site that imports on your behalf called wantitall ant then its going to cost 3000 monoploy money for the 3 times one litre set. While the general hydroponics i can get for R700 for the 3 bottle set

    General Hydroponics will work. I'd trust them more than that PEP brand of nutes haha!

    Macky is the coco master around here. I'll ask him to check-in too. Plants look a little light in colour like they might need nitrogen but he'll know for sure...
