SOIL I think I’m learning to grow... am I?

Critical Autoflower by Nirvana
Growing in Fox Farm Ocean Forest
6mL big bloom / 2mL tiger bloom per gal
Feed once a week, might dial big bloom back due to burn...

But I want to know what y’all think!

Photo is the start of Day 34, plain water pH 6.2 yesterday, next water will be another feed

I had the leaf burns last grow and I’m not sure what it is, but it’s not as bad this time around..

I'd be adding 25% perlite to dilute the infamous FFOF burn efftects
adding even more perlite should I be adding my own nutes later

good luck

Makes sense. I'll be sure to add more perlite next grow.

Looks okay to me. Always been growing in soil. Auto or not - I would remove some on the leaves in the bottom - you have enough leaves to do so👍🏻

You sure on defoliating Autoflowers? I've always read to avoid it, and not to defoliate if the plant's going through some issues, such as the N toxicity I'm having.

If she were mine I would not feed anymore N she looks over fed and i'd flush with plain Ph water let her get good and dry. Easy on the N from bloom on they need alittle but mostly P and K . My 2cents

The Tiger Bloom I use has NPK of 2-8-4; I was thinking next feed I could use a grand 1mL/gal!
