New Grower First CoCo grow Fast & Vast

[xcessive]

Picked up some Heavyweight Fast & Vast seeds and started my first grow in CoCo.


Using tap water set out 24-48 hours. PHd to 5.8 ...ppm of Tap is 156

Canna Coco in 5 gallon smart pots

I have GH flora series 3 part nutes... and plan on using 6ml/gallon GH flora micro and 9ml/gallon GH flora Bloom feeding program that Ive read works really well.

400W HPS light in 3x3 tent

temps staying around 79 and humidity around 40%



Here are pics from day 3, No nutes so far, just PHd water

Day 9

Here are some pictures from day 9. So far so good...Watered them on day 7 with 5.8 ph water at 300ppm

The plant in the smaller pot is a candy kush seed that went horribly wrong in a GH waterfarm setup. Couldn't keep the PH and ppm stabilized and was severely stunted. Transplanted into coco and have kinda nursed her back to life. Showing some slow signs of growth, we shall see what happens with that one.

I am hand watering with a red solo cup, slowing pouring in so that the CoCo isnt disturbed to much. Seems to move around or produce holes in the medium if you try to go fast.

I started off with with watering the pots with a 5.8 PH with no nutes. I let the pots sit overnight while seeds were soaking in water and then put the seeds in. They sprouted 48 hours later on Dec 7th.....

3 days after sprout(day 4) I hand watered with a red solo cup, a cup each plant at 5.8 PH and added some nutes at 300 ppm. Probably could of held off another day or two for watering but temptation got the best of me.

Day 6 Coco was looking pretty dry again, so I gave them a good watering of about 6 cups each at 300 ppm again.

Day 10 Coco was looking dry again, even more so under the surface. This time I gave each pot a gallon of 5.8 PH at 375ppm


So far everything seems to be going okay. Was kinda scared i would get nute burn from feeding early, but no problems. First time using CoCo so Im kinda learning as i go. Hopefully I somewhat answered your question

I wish I would of had better luck with the candy kush, my ph and ppm were all over the place. Im guessing my equipment needs a good cleaning, Im thinking there is a ton of salt build up internally that was causing the problems. Have you grown the Fast and Vast yet? Havent seen too much about this strain yet.

I haven't seen one complete grow at all on fast and vast! I'm saving them for the spring outside. But my 2 candy kush are great looking. Ones looks like a sativa and one looks like an indica. Weird!

I don't even have a ph meter. I use to but it was always on point so I don't measure ph or ppm ever. I just mix up my nutes in tap water ( I have a well, not in the city!) and just do it! Water when the pot gets light.
