Hello everyone,

I'm brand new here... not too sure where to go so I'm helping someone can help... I am in the process of growing my first plant. Right now it is in a solo cup...canna coco. canna coco a & b nutes + calimagic @ 5000-6000 ppm (not sure I'm using the droplets). I'm vegging under a blackdog phytomax 200 at 24 inches away in a 2x4x6ft grow tent... My problem is that i have spots on my leaves and it looks like they are curling up.

Please let me know what I should do, or where I could go for advice..

thanks!!

stop feeding nutrients for a bit, just water.
do the directions on the canna nutes say to feed @ 5ooo ppm?
I followed directions for good results with canna

larger pot, better soil asap

They said 5500-6000 but I made a few mistakes in the beginning and by the time I realized my mistake it was too late.

I'll transplant into 1 gallon smart pot today. Thanks for the help!!

I think maybe listening to "they" may have been a mistake too, just sayin.
Some people push their salt ferts to the limit maybe 18oo ppm's ish.
but I've sampled product growing with half that and it was awesome. somethings wrong with 6000ppm's
and those who told you that, and that meter man, where do I get one that reads that high?
can you take a pic of the bottle directions showing 6000ppm's please. mine doesnt say that so I ask.

I put the plant in a bigger pot. It's a 5 gallon smart pot. This is the first time I've grown a plant so I feel accomplished at least. lol.. either way.. I attached a few more pics.. I don't have a pen. I guess I was just measuring PH and not PPM? I use the drops. photo1 (1).jpg photo1 (2).jpg Thanks for all the help. I know I seem clueless at this point, but it's because I am! ha.

Hey welcome. Take pictures with your blurple off. We cant see squat in your pictures. It may not be a feeding issue.

If your in Veg, 8.7ml of a&b then 7.6ml of rh per gallon of water. started my seeds with this mix, in coco and no problems yet!
Canna doesn't recommend 5-6000ppms!

It's all a bit overwhelming when you first start.

I know. It's very true. I'm 8 months ahead of you and it really is a "learn by experience" thing. Just hang in there and learn from your mistakes. You'll be fine. Half of it is actually getting the seed in the dirt.
