buzzo Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 (edited) They look pretty good for a Shitty Soil Grow.Newbies need to stick with Canna Terra if they want to play with Auto's and Soil. 24 Hours light and Coco with any Coco 2 part Nutrient keep the E.C. down to 1.2 until flower. Keep the PH around 5.8 to 6.0 and you cant go wrong.Keep the Res Airated and feed them every single day, Treat for GnatsThey love HPS light from day 1. 90% of the time any Auto I grow is about this size at 4 Weeks grown this way.This Plant was tipped at day 21 Edited September 16, 2020 by buzzo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was suggested to me to use coco/perlite outdoors by a bloke in my local hydro shop. But I’m now only finding out that it is mainly for hydro. He said guys grow some nice autos with that medium outside.I have mixed a bit in with the terra pro mix so it doesn’t go to waste. About 70/30. I’m keeping ph between 5.8-6.1 and feeding every other day. As far as EC goes, I don’t know much about that. Is that in relation to amount of Nutes you add to the water?Do I need to purchase an EC pen, or can I get away with it for now?

Lolly Posted September 17, 2020 Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 I’ve read others using coco/perlite for outdoor grows. I put my coco outdoors during the day in full sun and find it dries faster outside so I feed twice a day on these days. I’m a totally new grower and plan on getting a ec and ph meter when funds permit, I know the rainwater I use is about a ph 6 but I’m going in blind with ec/strength of nutes. It’s not ideal I guess not to test but so far so good, I did originally start to get a start of yellow though the leaves but read up and realised I needed to up the nutes dosage and not long after it came good. Maybe I have gotten lucky but it can be done I guess with no equipment but I think it would be difficult if I ran into problems to diagnose.

buzzo Posted September 17, 2020 Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 You can get an EC meter delivered to your Door for under $25.If you have a decent nutrient line it will have the ml per liter and approximate EC right there on the Bottle.For $25 why not just buy one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul.sth.wst.is.best Posted September 17, 2020 Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 (edited) Thanks Paul, I’ll keep doing what I’m doing and hopefully they start to take off soon.You from WA by chance mate? I’m a west Aussie too. Grew up in Freo area. My bro lived down Denmark way back in the day and used to grow some massive plants Guerilla style out in the bush around there. Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app yea mate , WA my whole life. Should be a good outdoor season for us.. yes Denmark is a wonderful place... cold most of the time. Middle of summer it gets hot like anywhere else. I always loved the south west. Was in Perth only a few years back.. packed up and moved down. Started a family and all the other good stuff. good to see a freo boy here. Again best of luck my friend.

They are 6 days old and seem to be a couple of shades of green.Hard to keep the humidity up in the wardrobe, but temps are between 24-29. Spraying ph’d rhizotonic water a couple of times a day around edges of cup.Hopefully these go better than the last lot that I ending up pulling after wasting time and Nutes on them.They were 5 weeks old and not doing a hell of a lot. They were stunted from the beginning and I was getting frustrated with them. Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
