Hi guys
Brand new to growing. I've done so much homework before I actually got started.
Set up:
3x3x6 tent
2x600w Mars hydro led
Humidifier
4"intake fan
6"exhaust fan with carbon filter.

Medium:pro mix hp

Nutes:
Ph perfect g/m/b
CaLmag
B52
Big bud
Bud candy
Voodoo juice
Overdrive
Plan:
I have 5 norather light autos currently on day 7. 4 of 5 are doing good. The fifth one is smaller than the rest but looks nice and healthy. So my question is should I scrap the runt or keep it going. Can I even say it's a runt at day 7? Not feeding any Nutes untill day 10.
Thanks
 
:welcome: Welcome to AFN @Patauto124 Your setup sounds great! As far as runts, that's all I grow! :crying: Culling is an individual choice. If you got the extra room than leave her. If you got more seeds, than you might go the other way. No wrong choice here! :peace:
 
I'm not familiar with your medium, but I would wait 2 full weeks before I'd introduce nutes. Then I wouldn't go over 1/4 strength, maybe even 1/8 strength until you see how they handle it. Also, please keep in mind that the most common mistake new growers make is to over water. If you've read enough you already know this. :pass:
 
Oh yes I know. I weighed the pots dry so I know what they are. I also only water when the top inch is dry. Thus is the feed schedule I plan to use

I ran the exact same medium and also advanced nutrients last winter, though i was using sensi grow bloom and AN connoiseur. I was feeding on day 10 no problem with a feed schedule similar to yours. I think you will do well with that schedule. Good luck and great to meet you!

Ah yes...i would reconsider the cal/mag though...i found (in my setup, close proximity 100X3w mars and Galaxy 100X3w LEDS) i had to hit the plants heavily with cal/mag to keep up with their needs, and Advanced nutrients cal/mag is too high in nitrogen (4-0-0) for mid flower which caused toxicity problems. If i was you, i would source out another brand of cal/mag ideally one with low nitrogen.
 
Hey Pat, boy you have some ammo there, be careful to not go over the top. Keep it simple to start with and learn as you grow. All the best chum.........eP.
