Beggining of week 7 I am Super satisfied with the lights, i can already see the results i would otherwise see in weeks time, the nodes are coming out faster and faster. I will blame the Stunted growth on a number of factors. first, the light was absolutely horrible, but i would expect anything else from a $15 light kit from wish.. second, I kept repeatedly watering and feeding her every friday, even though the water drained underneath, i believe there was not enough oxygen to keep her going. third, I transplanted her on week 2, an absolute seedling, into a 20 litre pot, and kept feeding every friday, the water retention mustve kept the air from reaching the roots. fourth but not so important, ive only got parts of the fertilizers and nutrients i actually need, but thats all because of that reddit post i found when i begun. ive been following that for feeding since i couldnt understand the AN site. how am i fixing this? I got a new light kit, can already see the results, ordered some if not most of whatever nutrients and supplements im missing, Will not water her again until i see the leaves begging for water, I stopped feeding and watering at day 32, now patiently waiting for the soil to dry and it should fall on the date the stuff arrive (i hope) so the next water will be full of supplements. So far so good, growing well, no signs of deficiencies. The temperature meter will be off because i just finished the grow space and i have resetted it in its proper place. measurements are gonna be more accurate in the coming days. I also finally understood how the AN calculator works, i wasnt supposed to transplant her until she filled her first pot with roots. her first pot was a 3 litre one, and all the recommendations on the AN site are perfect if i follow the 1/4 every grower has mentioned about Doc and nutrients. It sounded unreasonable to me to give 40ml of nutrients to a complete seedling weekly, but those recommendations were for a 20 litre pot, which shouldntve been the case yet. Day 45, Reading the reply of @tobedetermined on his malawy and Doc diary about watering and feeding i realised, whilst i was following @TOTEM's diary, i failed to notice he was growing his in soil, i am growing mine in Coco coir and perlite. Made me go into a google hole of researching how to water cannabis plants that grow in coco and yes oh yes ive been doing everything wrong! Watering should be daily alternating between base nutrients, Supplements and a round of just water, rinse repeat. I have watered Doc today 1L of water, will water again tomorrow when the lights pop on and maintain a schedule for everytime they come on. I will keep feeding her the way i have been, 2ml of sensi bloom A&B and 2ml of Carboload. I bought Cal-Mag but i have never used it since the N contents are equal or more to one of the parts of A&B, and i know Sativas hate N. Until i have a noticable Cal-Mag deficiency i will not attempt to force it upon her. Today will be first day of what will now be Daily watering. Im looking at the full line of Advanced Nutrients supplements, a bit costly, but i think im way too invested to switch now. Day 46, After watering last night i didnt really notice any drainage, that was 2 weeks since the last time i watered. This morning the leaves are looking funny. Out of curiosity i watered her until i got some drainage simply enough to measure, my TDS meter read EC 5080. I tried my best to flush it down until i got at least 1500, couldnt really manage it, so what i did was i transplanted Doc into a 2L pot, with fresh coco and perlite 60/40 mix, and watered a little bit with just Root supplements. After a few tries i got runoff that measured at 1444, im leaving her like this until tomorrow. 3 Hours later every single leaf on the stem is hanging, but i can understand that considering what i put her through today.. I am really hoping she will recover by tomorrow. Day 48, and she recovered!!! And I learned a valuable lesson :D, started measuring and managing my EC inflow and outflow, im getting somewhere. What a messy week this was, learned valuable lessons for growing in coco. 1# Wait until your seedling has enough roots before transplanting. 2# water every day and make daily feed with stable EC (im not worried about PH thanks to Advanced Nutrients PH perfect tech) and monitor, measure and maintain the runoff EC no more than +200 above the Inflow EC. 3# make sure to crumble the pots softly (avoiding root damage) to increase drainage and oxygen can reach the roots. knowing this, next week should be a little bit more stable. I would also like to start thinking about mainlining, but im a bit worried considering how much stress she already had, and how slow her growth has been over the past 7 weeks. At this rate its gonna be a long time before flowering..

Hey FungShroom. If you go to the AN website they have a nice feeding schedule. If you select the "Grand Master" as grower level it gives you all AN products on 1 chart. That way you know for all AN products.... Simply set your resivoir size in gallons or liters. Hope this helps. Happy growing ✌️👊

Hello fellow growers :D <3 My leaves started drooping after i decided yday to start watering daily. I watered today with only supplements and looked for drainage. Should i be worried i may have burned them? or should i wait until/if it gets worse to do something?

Hey man. Try watering less. Only water when soil is almost dry and you see the bottom leaves dropping first. Then water. I water once a week.

I am wondering... Advanced Nutrients gives you recommendations on how to feed your plants and claim to be testing their products on real plants, yet, that dosage in 1 litre of water brings the EC up to 2.8 which can kill a plant easy. Opinions?

Yeah. They like to sell nutes. Those levels are for professional growers with ultimate lighting, ultimate environment, and max nutes. They just tell you the highest level possible but most have crappy led lighting and just as extraction fan and intake to control their environment. Light is the most important thing for plants, yet people buy shitty amazon lights and tell everyone how good they are...NOT. If led lighting is preferred then a good Fluence spydrx plus is the only model I would buy, but their really expensive. Even this light wont out perform harvest weight of A 1000W HPS, but it will come close. So they aren't doing anything wrong telling you those levels because people do grow at that ppm. Light, environment, know how, food in that order and you wouldnt believe the size of the buds that will grow for you.

Might be an overreaction but i am noticing all my new growth is yellowing. Could it be a high/low temp fluctuation imbalance during the night/day cycle? Is it a problem? Should i be doing something to fix it? Im 2 days into flower.

Hi there! I think that at this stage of growth the new parts are more than often little bit yellow but should green up in a day or two. If it spreads then this symptom is the first in Sulfur, Iron and calcium def atleast but when it spreads its easier to tell which one or something else. So keep watching here but don't react just yet

Can somebody describe what they can see in this picture? I only received it a few days ago, and since have been watering based on what the Truncheon tells me, but few days later i see a toxicity on my plant, and testing it against the Digital TDS meter shows me diff numbers(?)

I have to say after reading online the manuals for both meters, both have embedded termometers to work under any temperature, and they come factory calibrated so I suggest this: 1) Clean them both very well with distilled 7.0 ph water. 2) If you're using rechargeable AAA batteries with the Truncheon, that's the issue, replace them for regular batteries. Measure again, stirr for a moment and let them stabilize, hopefully the readings will be a lot closer than now!
