You feeding those coco girls every day? Full strength nutrients at 5.8?
Just curious. :Namaste:

Coco is hydroponic and requires a lower pH for best nutrient uptake.
5.8 makes all the nutrients available at the root zone.
6.8 locks out everything below that ph absorption level.
You must feed every day to run off full strength nutrients at 5.8 exactly.
This chart shows the ph in coco and soil.

I don't feed every day can I it be to wet I could be wrong it isn't soil I have to remember coco new game but I will start feeding everyday if it won't hurt anything far as being saturated with water all the time

It's also hydrophobic.
So if it dries at all it starts to repell water.
Must always be damp.
I have a foolproof potting method to help keep air at the roots.
Bill284 Method in my Heavens Shores thread.

OK sounds fair enough I just feed her again. The run off pH was 6.10 on my next jug nutes I mix I will add more ph down to my water try to get it close to 5.8 as I can thank you @Bill284

Good morning Amigo. :ciao:
Buds look great this morning.
Looks like they still have the final swell to come.
Some white pistils still I see.
2 Weeks wouldn't be off the mark by far I imagine but how is nutrient uptake.
Tword the end they slow right down on draining the pot.
Is she still pretty consistent.
Or has she started to slow down?
Nice work. :thumb:

Just checking this journal out, looking great for first coco attempt! This chart is awesome i have been mixing my coco different ratios with buffers like charge and perlite. i find a 60% coco 30 perlite 10 charge works well. Happy growing :)
