Ganja87 Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 Hey guys Ok so firstly, yes I do understand how broad of an answer im going to get but maybe someone out there can point me in the right direction.I was just looking back at the start of my grow diary and I started my grow in early July. Its been almost 2months and my plants are probably only 40cms high. I have made a few rookie errors in those 2 months such as letting the seedlings stretch too much which required my to repot them, I had a pretty bad PH problem followed by a bad calcium deficiency and I've only recently started feeding my plants with full strength nutes due to all these problems. Am I being impatient given all the dramas I've had or does something seem off? The plants are quite bushy but they dont seem to want to grow up. Im feeding them withnutrafield coco a+bseasolgogo juicecalmax PeaceGanja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billygoat Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 I got no idea... but why not ask these questions in your grow thread so its nice and easy to see what has been going on... just keeps things tidier IMO.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganja87 Posted September 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 hey man. What's ya pot size and how often do you feed/water? are you letting the coco dry out between feeds?a few (non hps/led) pics would help with diagnosis. Hey captMy pot size at the moment is 1 litre and I water every second day. I was watering until I got a lot of run off but I've recently cut back on the amount of water I've been giving them because I have a feeling they were starting to drown (the leaves were drooping)Hey mate pics will help, But why are you feeding cal/mag with coco specific nutes?Hi FrankShould I not be combining cal/mag with coco nutes? I've just added the cal/mag because I started to get a pretty bad calcium deficiency. I got no idea... but why not ask these questions in your grow thread so its nice and easy to see what has been going on... just keeps things tidier IMO.. I totally agree billy, however I've asked a few questions on my grow thread but havent really had any replies yet so I thought I'd just ask in specific areas of the forum.Also I'm just freaking out due to it being my first grow haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganja87 Posted September 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 I took these 2 pics this afternoon And this is why I added the cal/mag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Reynolds Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Hey mate, Coco specific formulas should have all the calcium you need. Calcium issues imo are generally due to over/under watering anyway. What you have above is not a calcium deficiency, as calcium def will show up in the new growth. Not too sure which def you got there im not the best at trouble shooting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frostcontrol Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Pot bound for sure. I like to follow a simple rule that goes like this ... If a plant is not growing above the surface then it's growing below. Obviously there are limits to this rule and when the roots have no room to grow then the foliage will also remain stunted.
