Thank you so much so im on day 22 advent really watered the seedlings sine going into the medium.

I have cana a + b but not sure what the difference is also how much I should be using?

Hi mate,

Could you tell me how much nutrients I need to use on my plants which are now 24 days old. I remember you saying I can give them small amount of nutrients. But there is no instructions on the nutrients I have CANA A + B could you advise me on this I have also attached some photos do you think these are growing really slow for three week since planting into medium.

Thank you

Hello @tommy1892, they do seem a little small for 3 weeks. Aslong as they’re healthy though I wouldn’t worry too much about size. I’ve never used the Canna stuff, but whatever the directions say I’d start with 1/4 to 1/3 strength of it, then slowly increase from that. For instance
I’m using the AN stuff this run. It calls for 2ml per litre, so I started at .5ml per litre on the first feed. Then 1ml per litre on the second and I’ll keep stepping it up till I’m at full strength. So far mine have had 2 feeds and are just over 3 weeks of age. Started feeding at week 2, wet dry cycles 5 days later feed 2

Hi,

I started with 20% of the strength with mix of 2litres water now my worry is I have over fed them as full strength days mix with 10 litres of water.
But my worry was over watering the 4 week old babies. Growth seems good but slow I’ve started to put them on a 18:6 hrs last 4 days as it’s been in 24 hr light.

put some new pics up

The plants are in coco medium.
The fan blades is this a good bad thing?

yesterday I accidentally left the light off for around -10 hrs is this a bad thing at this stage?

How often do I need to water and give them nutrients they are coming upto one month old but everytime I feel soul seems moist so I’m scared to water them

I am no expert, but have been told that coco is hard to over water and should remain moist.

I am trying it for the first time myself out of curiosity lol I have always grown in LOS.

Coco needs to be watered daily because it won't hold nutrients. Also, coco dosage isn't the same as regular soil. I'm no expert, so I recommend you start googling and get a better understanding on how to handle it.
