I am a newb with nutrients and growing in general ...

Emery1991started grow question 6y ago

I am a newb with nutrients and growing in general and i'd like too know how much too feed and how often for optimal results. I know this will depend on what nutrients i use and different species of plant. But in general how much is too little and how much is too much? Cheers 👊

Hi @Emery1991 in general your plants only need a small amount of trace nutrients up until they transition into flowering . Then after the initail stretch is over your plants will need more regular feedings of potash (potassium) and phosphate to promote large healthy blooms. If using store bought nutrient mixes just use them at half the reccomended dosage Hope this helps

Defoliating FastBuds Autos Hey Auto Growers. I am wondering what you think about defoliating autos. I’ve had differing results and don’t want to stunt them. Mostly the AH & JH to let light in. I’ve tried tucking but they just pop out in the wind. If yes when is the best time. Thanks, Happy Growing 🌱

Not sure what’s going on but the past few days lots and lots of my pistols have been going an orange brown colour And it’s more evident every day. Only thing I can think of is there has been lots of rain this week and a higher humidity. Any ideas/ suggestions? Check last 2 pics.

Mainline/Manifold: Trimming fan leaves after done with topping.Finishing up the topping portion of mainlining. P2 to be Nebula-Haze style and P3 to be Nugbuckets style. I'll be trimming growth tips other than from the 8 cola sites on each. Still keep un-shaded fan leaves below those levels? A lot online shows all lower fan leaves trimmed

I grow my plants at half of the feed schedule that canna calls for. 5ml/gallon vs the schedule 10 ml/gal. And I get amazing growth. Does anyone think adding all the adjuncts to my grow, feeding full strength really gives you that much more yeild?

Does anyone out there feeling the same way I do about too much nitrogen in nutes during bloom causing buds to be too leafy and with a 8-9 week auto flower would week 6 or week 7 be better to give them a bit of extra P/K yet leave enough time for a 10-14 day flush?

Defoliation of bushy plant during week 1 flowering I flipped my girls to flower 5 days ago and been lightly defoliating the big one (top right) over the last 4 days (plucking lower fan leaves and those blocking bud sites from the light, about 10 leaves a session) Was it a bad move considering I already flipped to flower?

Wondering if someone could take a look at my plant. I think it was a bit hot yesterday, not sure if it is heat stress. Not sure if it is Nitrogen Toxicity either because of the dark leaves. Maybe this is normal? Can someone shed some light for me? Thanks!
