    Fed today mate. Ordered the ec pen and soil tester. So once I have those results then I'll know if I need a flush. Thanks for all the help

    I'd test the ec with the run off yes? And what range do I need it in? If high I flush right?

    Well let's see how much you've been giving them, make up the usual amount you have been giving them..measure that and report back

    I test the runoff EC when I hit any issues..

    Here is a 'general' guide to what you should be aiming at (taken from Blues guide on those new to coco I linked you previously) ;

    Ec stages

    No two plants are the same and feeding requirements vary depending on environment, plant health, strain and phenotype so the following is a guide only and not an exact schedule.

    Seedling stage - Ec 0.4-0.6
    Early Veg - Ec 0.6-0.8
    Late Veg - Ec 0.8-1.1
    Early Flower - Ec 1.1-1.2
    Mid Flower - Ec 1.2-1.4
    Late Flower - Ec 1.2-1.4
    Flush - Tap Water

    Mate today they look fuckin mega. The top cola on all of them has gone on a mad en. So much growth in one day. Was definitely under fed.

    All growth now looking green. With the odd blemish on a leaf or two.

    Still going to check the soil ph when the soil monitor arrives.


    So I feed everyday just to confirm? Don't wana start over feeding now ????

    And when do I know it's time to start flower?

    Fantastic news!..I shall leave you in the capable hands of RASTA with this

    Out of curiosity, what were the results of the EC both in terms of how much you were feeding and the runoff?

    A soil tester? Test soil ph?

    A thought this was coco you growing in?

    You got a pic of this EC soil tester all in one jobby? N a pic of the plant from today?

    N you need to judge when its time to flip lights to 12/12 and start flowering. Plants will more or less triple in height sometimes. So train em low, get lots of tops, keep them low n get canopy even. Then flip.
