ph of the grow medium
Your Welcome smokeallday! Post us some pics if ya get a chance.
PC...Yeah, I'm in B'Cuzz coco, no perlite. Should have done the perlite, didn't, that'll wait till harvest. When I rinse the medium I'll add the perlite for the next crop.
A....The largest ones I have are 3 weeks into veg, and about 3ft tall--most of em anyway.
B..I started out watering/feeding four times a day--lol. But I got worried that it might be a little too much. What I've read is that coco is "hard" to over-water. That told me its not impossible--lol. So, I've been a little conservative since then.
C...Mine are in 7.5" x 7.5" square pots--1.5 gallons. I'd love to have them in larger pots, but getting this perpetual thing going is trying to break me.If I transplanted the largest ones into larger pots, I'd need 12 of the larger size, plus all the coco to fill them. So far, I already have 4 bags in all the pots combined---at $29 / bag. It's adding up on me----lol.
D... Yes I feed/water to the point of strong run-off. I don't measure it. I just make sure it's way more than drips. My logic is to allow enough runoff to leach some of the salt build-up out. My setup is run-to-waste, so, its not very feasible right now for me to catch it all. How much run-off tells you enough is enough?
Right now, there's eighteen girls in flower and twenty more in various stages of rooting and veg. Check the link in my sig.
