Grow Mediums Feeding coco with only guano tea

[jingo]

Jingo would that ratio be for a vegetative tea?

I figure next tea I brew I will exclude the high P bat guano until after I feed the seedlings, then add some to the bucket for the older girls.

They are recovering good, red poison dropped her shell and blue amnesia is doing rising nicely.

Any clue how much azomite is normally used per gallon?

Don't know how I missed this, but yeah I'd use that restful for veg. How are things going btw?

The young ones in the 5 gals are doing good. Found some bigger jars to use as humidity domes.

The red posion and blue amnesia in the 1 gals are doing good but have some clear imbalances going on. Yellowing leaves, some reddening stems,

I added less than half a teaspoon of epsom salt into today's tea, thinking they may have a magnesium deficiency. Im not sure why but it seems to be lacking the usual bubbly foam. I used the same things as the last tea (alaskan hummus, EWC, alfalfa, kelp meal, molasses, mykos, citric acid for ph) and added azomite. It's been over 24 hours so I would have expected more foam by now. Should I still use this tea? It doesn't smell sour or anything. Oh also added a half tspn of gypsum or so, but only before feeding.

Here's some pics of the yellowing leaves and the last pic is a beatiful nug forming

I notice my teas lose foam after hour 12 of brewing but i live in az wheres its hot out so just keep an eye on ur tea temps. Keep it at 78

I appreciate your guys' help. This being my first idoor grow, Im faced with learning to find the balance between all the nutes since im not following a recipe exactly. It's hard to differentate between the different difficiencies and such

This is great. What did you settle one every 2 or 3 days? Have you used mykos for root explosion? I think it works great

yup I used a good bit of mykos around the rootzone before planting. Looks like you can see it as white stuff growing on the 1 gal air pots.

Ive been watering about every day sometimes less, sometimes splitting the tea into a few waterings. Trying to keep it humid in there since there's a lot of air movement and a bigger space than just the plants take up.

Will use some humic acid with the next tea feeding, and up the dose of phosphourus guano. Used a pinch of dolomite lime with today's feeding, may continue to do so. Using RO water, is it recommended to supplement Cal+Mag every watering?

Using RO water, is it recommended to supplement Cal+Mag every watering?

Pretty much mandatory with RO water. I'm in the early stages of researching chloride needs when using RO water and Coco. Coco does have chloride in it naturally so may not need that much supplementation but in the future I may try some calcium chloride late in bloom.

cool thanks for your insight man

here's the blue amnesia and red poison seedlings and a nugshot of the older red poison

Got my TDS/EC meter today! Came with a cool pouch, more than I expected for 11 bucks.

Readings of guano tea:
EC - 4580 us/cm
TDS - 1833 ppm
32* C

How do these look?

Not sure where my head had been I missed this post. I'm not sure how to read those figures, on my meter EC is double TDS, but there are differences between meters and conversions.
