Autopots with think different in ecothrive lite coco

[St. Tom]

also if you look in my thread you will see i often have 1 girl that goes totally off also what is your starting water ppm do you use ro water or tap water also the reason i use ec is its universal on all meters and or coarse you can bring her back

You are using Canna Coco + Cal-mag + whatever calcium is in your starting water? My guess would be too much Cal-Mag. You should need little to none with the Canna Coco.They already put extra in that product. Also your starting water is important. Get a water report from your municipal water company online; look for the hardness section and the sanitation section. We are looking for ammonia in the sanitation part and all of the hardness info.

I'm actually using ecothrive coco if that makes any difference? Il have a look online thanks

@St. Tom can I bring her back to good health at this point? So close to flower?

The best thing about hydro/coco is it is easy to fix mistakes. The damaged leaves are damaged forever you just want to stop it from spreading.

as mog says there always easy to fix even on autopots but id say they are in great condition overall and if that one girl goes way out of wack i generally just take her off the res and top feed here for a while but i know that's not ideal

Is this the stuff u mean havnt got a clue what it all means though can you shed some light on it? Don't k ow whether to give more calmag or take it away

Thanks that makes me feel better then was panicking then I read I shouldn't top feed after the res has been on? Because of salt build up in the top of the coco?

Do I go by the tds ppm 500 or the 700ppm result?

i do it virtually every single grow with at least 1 plant off my res but just so you understand me i remove it completely off it and top feed the plant i don't leave it still sat in the autopot as if I'm top feeding you don't want it sat it the runoff . also regarding 500 or 700 i think it depends what meter you use and ec is universal that's why i use that but my meters have ppm and ec

rusty let's see if i can get my buddy in here @Nosias and get his take on them but your plants do look in great condition so don't panic
