When to flower (12/12) for max yield?

[animal]

I would give them another flush for at least a day then knock the nute strength back to half strength until they look healthy again.

Thanks for your help guys. Poor things, theyr'e not lookin good right now -- lots of yellow patches and wilting drastically. If they revive it will be a miracle. Should have asked my questions before I started. BTW I am using hot coco and dutch treat -- it's just that i was using 40 ml per litre for the first 3 weeks instead of 1-4ml per litre. Cheers.

Thanks Animal - I'm going to flush them for a day like you suggested, as I only flushed for an hour and put in a few mls of nute - and a day later they haven't perked up yet. Cheers.

When I said flush for a day I meant at every watering for a day flush them. Not to be running water through them the whole day. Sorry I should have been more specific.

 

Give us a run down on your medium and how often you water. Overwatering can also turn seedlings yellow.

I'm using hot coco for the medium - but I have them in an aquamiser feeding water to the tray that they sit in. Should I flush them by pouring ph adj water from the top of the pots and letting it drain through?????

At the moment I have them on automatic feeding of ph water without nutes.

I don't know what an aquamiser is. But if its something designed to regulate watering like an autopot I guess it could be OK. I wouldn't know either way to be honest.

Yeah man there's no other way to flush. Keep doing it until the PH of the water coming out is the same as the water you're pouring in.

 

My advice is to flush em keep on plain water for a day then go to half strength nutes

[animal]

Shot of superthrive in your nute mix probably wouldn't hurt either its good for recovering plants.

It could also be possible that the coco holds too much water for the watering system you've got and its becoming waterlogged. Coco is usually used in run to waste setups.

 

Another possibility is I'm stoned and rambling. Have a good night.

animal what you stated was flowering early making under a foot early qaulity of bud will be sacraficed and there is many factors as you state but this is not one.
