Mephisto Genetics HELP WANTED. GROWING SERIOUS DANK

[derek420colorado]

Their ppms are in the 3-400 I don't understand. I was told not to feed nutes until first or second set of true leaves

Which is usually around the 14-21 day mark, yes your plants are a little small. But that is normal for someone just getting the hang of DWC, I think your plants will totally recover and be just fine once you get the pH and feeding thing down.

They're ten inch net pots. So it's taking some time. But roots are finally beginning to dangle. The pictures here are now a week old. There has been some growth. Last night I adjusted ppms to match madman? Medman?'s feeding schedule. Ph was low on two of the plants so I changed and adjusted that. Do you think this mistake will cost me greatly in this stage of the game?

Yes I think at this stage they have been held back a lot. Get your PH in line with 5.8-6.1. I check and adjust my PH and PP's twice a day. IGNORE any and ALL other feeding schedules. Feeding/PPM schedules are good as reference but do NOT use them to adjust YOUR PPM levels for YOUR plants. You want to feed your plant what THEY are using. At nearly a month old you should have a nice sized root ball in your buckets not just getting through the net pots. With autos we don't have time to make up for lost growth like with a photoperiod plant. The clock is always ticking with autos. I bet at their age they are showing sex already or will as soon as you get them straightened out. Once they show sex....BOOM.....game on!

What is your current PPM and PH?

 

[HotBunz]

Also I will say I don't think those massive net pots and all of the hydroton are doing you any favors.

All ph is around 5.7-5.8 at 1am last night. I'll check again when I get home. I didn't check ph in 2 days because the ph remained stable for dayssss. I was wondering if that has something to do with the Lucas formula? I'm using old nutes I had laying around for a couple years. So they're not ph perfect(jungle juice). Tomorrow I believe will begin week 4 and their ppms are between 580-670

Kinda disappointed. I'm not sure if they're even doing good or not. Ppms are around 700. Ph5.7
I just bought gh floranova
I've been using Lucas formula with jungle juice. But I keep worrying I'm not doing it right

I don't know if your new or not but I am just starting 4 th grow 1 st sussufull 2 lost to things out of my control both was going great I studied a year before trying maybe being old is why I took so long not knowing best experience is growing.I cant belive I waited 35 years to do this.Im not lucky enough to live in legal state I would be dead before it happens here I'm very ill so I needed to try something I've never broke the law in my life and still feel like I'm not.
Everyone talks about how fragile autos are being new to this they can't be to fragile I've lost a few to my mistakes not theirs made a lot of mistakes but they went on.
I've returned to a brand new set up been gone 2 months over hurricane Matthew new soil and nutes I've never used I know nothing about but will start my run anyways I'm going to make sure to watch my ph and ppm don't over water I've not got to the point I push my plants I probably never will being in soil.
What I'm trying to say may sound crazy the more relaxed you are the better it is on my first grow threw everything at them topping,lst,i over feed over watered 4 autos gave me right at 10 oz dry.
The next 2 grows I was so careful wanting to increase my yeild due better by my plants the 2 did not finish because of mother nature's wrath but I can tell you the plants I stressed over did not do as good as when I was confident and easy going.
I'm not going to question myself this time I'm just going to roll with it see what all the new changes bring me this is my first time growing meds with bottled nutes.
I'm pulling up a chair I'm wanting to go all Coco soon seems this is very close.
Best of luck I think your going to do fine.

You got ten oz off of 4 plants? And they were in bad shape? How bad would you compare mine to yours? Im a young stoner. So I wake up all anxious and nervous if the leaves look a little lazy. I've been more on top of ph. And ppms. I was leaving it alone for a day or two without checking
