Agree with Bob about more info but your EC is awfully high for a young bunch. 4 weeks?
hydrococo 60/40 gold label
What EC do you suggest? second week EC 0.6, third 0.7 and fourth 0.9, not getting anything else apart from what I've shown on the photos
Thanks for the reply. What do you mean by "never straight water"?
Never feed straight water. The idea of coco is to water often this pushes out yesterday’s food and gives it new food. We call it drain to waste it’s a type of hydroponics. The plant never has old food it’s always replaced with new food every day. My coco plants get fed twice a day.
I said pending further information it was high. Being in coco is totally different than peat or soil.
It's tough to find the right info as I've come across people saying to collect run off and adjust feed accordingly and others saying not to bother as it will stabilise itself. Therefore I've decided to go with the latter option and consult you to see if that is the problem. I've also seen soil ph meters where you stick the probe into the medium and measure the ph and moisture levels but those are expensive. So do I just measure the run off and adjust the ph with my next feed?
Remember its NOT soil,so anything to do with it dont look at it lol.Do your research,its hydro.
Runoff means nothing
I know it's not soil. I always watered them till runoff, I'll measure the runoff today and report back.
I cannot water them daily, at least till runoff as the pots are too big to dry enough over a single day and watering them daily would cause overwatering.
I'm aware of pots being too big, 15l so about 3.3 gallons. I cannot do anything about it now. This is my first time and the only way I'm going to learn anything is by trial and error. I've done a lot of research before starting but it's really confusing as there are so many sources and most of them state different things.
Please
