Grow Mediums Newbie needing help :-(

:thumbs:what nutes did you get bro ?:Sharing One:
 
I went with Canna Aqua Vega and Flores, also grabbed some superthrive just in case. Got my tent arriving in the morning so will have some new pictures up :-)
 
Well babies are finally in their new home, although still waiting on a new pot which needs to hurry up. Just a few new pictures to show :-)

They're looking a lot better already!

I've heard good things about Canna nutrients. It was their Aqua line that was being used during the first public grow of Think Different if I'm not mistaken. Great results!
Remember not to use Superthrive during flowering.
 
Day 16

Well here are a few new pictures, it's the 3rd day of the plants being in the new tent with new nutes and they seem to be doing ok :grin: they are now at day 16 from the day they sprouted. Looking over the old pics I am quite surprised they made it this far, I thought they were doomed at one point, fingers crossed the rest goes smoothly..

Looking good .
it looks like you have a gentle hamd and good instincts.
dont try to push em, better to have them hungry than burnt.
 
Day 23
So recently I came to the conclusion that not all 3 plants are going to stand a chance together in my little tent so I have had to palm the two smaller ones off to someone else to look after. I seem to be having a little problem with the lower leaves (mostly) after having a read around on here I think it might be nute burn so I flushed out the pot and put fresh water in and I'll re-feed them in a few days time with a slightly weaker solution.

Other than that I don't think they are doing too badly, still no sign on flowering but then again I suppose it is still early..

your right Wu ,they look overfed but otherwise very happy :Sharing One:but a few days is too long for just water ,better to make the next res almost the same but less final PPM/EC ,so a bit weaker than before by using less of the aqua vega (about 20ml less ?) ,if you see more tip burn on new leaves after that you can always add another liter or two of water in the res to lower PPM/EC again

Happy growing dude :peace:

Hey bro they look fantastic, super healthy, what makes you think they are overfed if you don't mind me asking? ...Just trying to learn what to look out for.

looks a lot like the browning tips of a few leaves here & the lower ones like Wu said have tip burn & like GTron said its better to slightly underfeed than overfeed at this stage ....Plus new hydro growers without PPM/EC meters are much more likely to put too much in the res than not enough !:Sharing One:
