medical grow

Hmmm i cant imagine cannabis only needing once a week. They must be babies. I try to keep them in small enough pots that they need watering every 4th day or less. I end in 7 gallon pots.

And i mean i water them on Monday for example and then again on thursday. When they are only being watered that often i add nutrients every time. Now this is after the first month where i use no nutrients but i use ffof which has very high nutrients. If i water them Monday, wed, and friday i add nutrients monday and friday.

I agree, and it suggests drainage issues probably.

Higher frequency fertigation is always better if you can manage drainage. If the interval between events is days long, then evaporation is going to really raise the EC/PM of the nutrient solution in the media. When this is followed with "plain" water, the EC/PPM drops. The poor plant has to struggle to adjust to all of these changes.
High frequency fertigation ensures that the nutrient solution available to the plant is always in a tighter EC/PPM range. Plants don't have to spend energy adjusting and can just grow.
I write about this in my guide to EC/PPM and Fertigation: https://forum.growweedeasy.com/foru...-ec-ppm-and-fertigation-what-you-need-to-know

Question
is there any problem with changing nutes in the middle of the grow?

 

[Redwasp]

No there isnt

 

[Campesino]

I would just recommend doing a flush in between.

 

[Camk]

Ok good im changing to mega crop

 

[Camk]

I have 4 plants that are really taking off and 2 that are short and bushy but i need to switch to 12-12
or i wont have room in the grow room
should i just go for it and hope they do well?

 

[Camk]

thanks for the info!!
6 different strains 6 completely different outcomes!!

 

[Camk]

next grow will be just 4 plants that seems to be the perfect amount for the room

 

[Camk]

im running two 400w mh and will switch to hps on 12-12
i could dedicate one light to the shorter two plants

 

[Camk]

will do !

 

[Camk]

i should have learned when 2 took over the room lol !!

 

[Camk]

what would cause moisture droplets on the leaves
and were there are leaves touching the bottom leaf is wet
I have AC pumping into the room maybe it is effecting it
anyone have this kind of thing before

 

[Camk]

ya im due for some "light" defoliation

 

[Camk]

well im in the stretch and the CD-1 is a moster taking over the room
