hi again,i have six babes about 6inch high looking nice but when do i start feeding and how do i use Co Co A And B.
thanks
 
Hey and welcome!
How old are they? What soil, or is it coco because you are using House and Garden Coco A&B? This is what the folks that have your answer will probably want to know.
How do they look? Do they look hungry or in need of anything? This is what I would be asking myself!
The manufacturer states that the mix is one liter of A and one of B to 250 liters of water. You could convert that to ml and have 4ml each to one liter of water. I would think that a bit strong and would try 1ml of each to a liter.
Please wait until someone with more knowledge than me let's you know for sure. I am a new grower myself and just trying to figure this stuff out too!!
Peace and happy growing!

they are 20 days from when they rooted, They look ok and there in co co soil mate. so i can put 4ml of A and B in a Mixing bottle then mix them together or do i feed to the plant separately.
thanks
 
I use about 2 ml per ltr of both a and b, depending on how they look. You may want to look into adding cal and mag. You add the A to your water then add B, then water the plant with the mixture. Do not mix them directly together before adding water this can degrade the fertilizer. :smokebuds:
 
I also grow with coco A&B and mallo's right, mix A with your water first then add B and mix that in. I would definitely go and get calmag if you dont have some already. My plants started showing calmag deficiencies early on and I was already giving them a low dose with A&B from the start. I'm also growing with LED's so their known to make plants crave calmag but either way it's definitely a good investment to go buy some.
 
whats the signs of calmag deficiency mate and what does it do and cost.I am using 400w LED other the six babes at the min but there will only be 1 400w led over one plant,how many plants could a 400w led do.
thanks lads
 
hi again i have brought a plant off someone and it looks sweet it was about 13inch high and its been under the 400w led for 3 days and is growing good BUT,there are brown spots that have appeared on 4 leaves so i went to get some cal-mag but was told you can only use it when there in flower and just take them leaves off,If i use it now do i still give them CoCo A+B at the same time.
thanks
 
I'm not too sure about the cal-mag I know that it can really throw off your P uptake. You can totally add them together, I add my cal-mag right after part B kinda like part C. And I don't generally take off leaves unless they are really far gone. Sometimes if my leaves get messed up I cut off the messed up part, they have an amazing ability to still produce sugars and such even when half of it is gone. Hope that helps."My 2 cents"
