First time in coco…

[Stickylemonz]

Hello all, this is first time in coco and have started worse way, not having time to learn or give them care, this is gonna change.. hopefully

I’m currently sorting groom out so will give details on it when I finish it.

I’ve started them off in a converted fileing cabbinet not huge tho. 40x40cm square by 136cm high

I’m using a viperspectre p600 dimmed to lowest and I think lowest is 10w maybe? I’m not 100% sure

I had a few strains not germ and some that did but died off..

Normally just put in glass of water for 24hr then put straight into soil and always been fine, however as it’s coco I was unsure to do this way. So instead i soak for 24hr then in wet tissue snd then placed in dark cupboard

the strains I have now are 2x wifi gelato, 1x rainbow cake

Here is the two wifi most recent, the rainbow cake only just out soil. I will get photo of rc today.

The light cycle is 18 on 6 off

I have been now feeding the two wifi g on 1ml/l a&b shogun every day for the last 5 days, don’t know if this right or not, as haven’t had time to ask however I will now be having more time to learn and ask questions!

The rc has only had water so far.

Loving this diary..... The filing cabinet start station is superb.... love the DIY stuff.... we can be a creative bunch at times.

I have started a diary and its in coco.

Just dropped Seedling Care.... might help you.

If you let pots dry out a little between feeds the roots will come on and grow much faster when plants are young. Maybe cut feeds back to every 3 to 4 days for a few weeks till roots have spread before bumping it up to every few days. The smallest one keep an eye on it for shitty looking dead spots if your giving 1ml straight from off but in all honesty it should be good if feeding every 3 to 4 days.



I don`t know what power light or what kind your using ? But they look to be stretching a bit, if its a cfl type light get it right down on them maybe 6 t0 8 inches above plant or their about, if its an LED then feck knows cus those lights can burn young plants .



They look alright though, one thing i should day is don't let temps drop too much when lights are out cus that will proper knock them back and slow them right down possibly stop them growing. You`ll prolly see purplish stems if cold is getting to them too much. But yes if temps are dropping quite a bit and you got no heaters in their it be better letting them run on 24/7 lighting. I try to keep temps anywhere above 20c during dark although they could go slightly lower without cold getting into them i like to keep em warm.

P.S

I don`t like your pictures with flash setting on camera on i firstly thought the leaves had some sort of deficiency till i saw following on pics without flash.

Subbed up to this one

Thank you mate! Yes I’ll run 24/7 and maybe up the light a little if you think they a little leggy, I am using a 95w viperspecture light but it’s dimmed right down to 10w I think..

I also put wrong measurement for box it is only 80cm tall so may run into problems if left in there to long

Get it cranked up to half power and keep eye on them for a few days and if they start look dodgy in that time lower power is my advice on jobby mate.
