    He didn't say he was growing in coco. It appears to be rockwool or something with hydroton pebbles on top - maybe the OP can tell us. It certainly would help to know more.
     
  5. Seem to be forgetting a lot of important info sorry guys woke up toking some sky walker this morning but yes I'm using rockwool. I'm stuck because I'm growing a 12/12 plant that I got from a buddy of mine with the same nute schedule but the auto plant looks 10X worse..anymore info I can provide please let me know I'm worried I might loose her
     
  6. Ah you're right I don't use rockwool either but I assume it's the same nutrientless soil.

    OP why are you feeding 3x a day? I don't think they need that much, I don't even water that often. Do you have soil you can transfer to? If so what kind
     
  7. Because I was doing once a day but I came home one day to her drying out and laying over so idk I did some research and 3 seemed normal to me. But I do not have soil and was thinking of switching it myself just was unsure the proper mix because I've used soil before but that was regular store bought for bagseeds back when I was testing my skills.

    You should start feeding autos 1/4 strength at first then build it up to recommended dose, hope this helps good luck!

  9. I thought it was recommended to hold off on nutes as long as possible? And I lost an earlier bunch of seedlings from too many nutes as well which is why I've been cautious. Is it ok to give her full strength even though she's barely 2 weeks? Like I said I'm open to any and all comments. This is my first true hydro grow.
     
  10. Edit: just realized this is a hydro grow, not too sure how to help sorry cuz
     
  11. I'm a first time grower in DWC rock wool and have had like 4 die because of problems, I have one now healthy and strong as hell, I only feed it the RYSOFUEL from the CYCO range for the first week and made sure the water was PH'd - I also have one more baby that's coming a long and looking okay and think it's because I had 2 Rock wool cubes and this time germed the seed in the little one - but at the start put it right in the big cube so I did. It have to disturb the fragile roots.. I think it's a lot harder to start in rock wool as it has no nutes at all like soil - but once they take off it's easy from there (this is all my experience and not facts)

  12. Yeah man I definitely noticed that too because prior to this run I tried my hand at 3 more seeds of the same strain and those all died because I gave too many nutes so I didn't want to do the same for her but I'm scared I might've killed her. She's still standing but I think it might because I broke a root when transplanting her but that wouldn't make her show signs of defencies tho right? Thanks to all who've taken time to read and post but any further help would be greatly aprreciated.
     
  13. Yeah i normally wait till they are 2-3 weeks old before first lot of nutes. No don't give her full strength if she's an auto, they don't need as much food as photo plants. 1/4 strength then half and work your way up to full strength once they are older
