HELP! Growing problem or problems

In everyone’s opinion , is Coco Loco a good media for growing quality cannabis ?
Any advice on a different brand or type of media that might give better results .
Cannabis food for veg and flower that the pro might use ? I know , ha ha ha .
Just trying to get on a better path to success !
I appreciate All growing advice from the community here .
 
I apologize for not being online for the past couple days. I have been on call this past weekend due to the freezing weather .
Stasy safe and warm 👍
 
Duester per your post #8.1. It looks like you are showing 6 leaf pictures, one well flowered plant in two pictures, and different flowering plant in two other pictures. The flowering plants are not 30 days old.
Please, correct me! I have not grown GG4.
 
In terms of brand, I use General Hydroponics Cali-Magic. Look at the N-P-K on the labels. Some brands have added Nitrogen which you may not want.
 
Hello
All pics are from the same plant. The plant at time of picture was 5 days from one month since flipping. The GG4 seeds came from Canuck Seeds .
 
The plant in the pictures is in a 5 gallon cloth pot . 1 -20-25 it was one month in. Currently the plant is yellowing many large fan leaves starting from the bottom up. This issue seems to be always happening shortly after one month into flower. I will be home in a few hours to post some pictures of this plant .
 
I have been trying to grow correctly for almost 4 years. In the beginning I was able to get some grow advice from the local grow shop. The grow shops are gone now & finding good grow advice is next to impossible . I just heard about this forum not long ago & I’m aiming to become more successful . Could you mention what grow media you use ? Do you use tap water ? What plant food do you use ? Any other information regarding your grow also .
 
Duester Per your post 8.2.
I am growing autos in a 70/30 (have used 50/50) coco/perlite blend in fabric bags. PH 5.8 for vegging, 6.0 for flowering using tap water and Botanicare nutrients, bloom booster, and Cal-Mag.
 
Duestar you need to make sure whatever calmag you use is compatible with the baae nutes you are using so if I were you to avoid possible issues stick to the base nute manufacturers calmag or other manufacturers recommendations

Thanks Bluey . I believe I can get some Dutch Science Nutrients.
I just posted a few pictures I took from earlier .
 
Thank you . Is there a reason for the change in PH between veg and flower ? Does all grow media require this change ?
 
Other folks are better at diagnosing, so I'll just talk about our thing. But you are on your way to some fine looking dope.
Per your post 17.1
Plants uptake different nutrient, in different amounts, at different pH levels. I can only speak for coco. Soil is a whole other world.
Require is an ugly word. Everything we do is general information based on different experiences. Generally, the numbers I gave are recommended in the forum and are what I am getting my best results with. Someone might find their X strain vegges better at 5.75 than 5.8.
Find yourself a boiler plate and adjust accordingly. Experience will come.
The chart is from the GWE site. It is pH recommendations for soil growing. I am only posting it to show a little better what I mean by different pH levels. I don't know if there is one for coco.

They are looking very happy but watch for nute burn, that is the tips of the leaves turning brown and curling upwards, can also spread down the outside of the leaf a bit and cause a little bit of cupping.
 
There is one for coco because things are a bit different, typically 0.3 to 0.5 lower on the pH across the grow. The uptake of nutes changes in coco
 
Duester Sorry but I don't see the yellow leaves you'r going on about. What I see is a pretty healthy plant, that needs a little defol, maybe some lollypoppin. I.M.H. I would dial back the neut.- water ratio, Perhaps get a different neut. brand F.F or dyna-gro. with a compatible cal-mag product. Next time around try growing in a bucket of quality soil and see how you do. I feel it's more forgiving than coco or hydro.
