different nutrients mate and different ratios, for auto mazar i used canna aqua and additives with higher ratios of n-p-k hence the lower ec's but for this grow im using genesis with no additives hence the higher ec's, pretty easy to run a grow on low ec's providing you have the concentraion of n-p-k in higher dosages
just an example if your base nutrient ratios were 20n-30p-30k you woukd need to use lower ec's than if it was 10n-20p-20k
hope that makes sense, with 3 part nutrients its easy to tailor the ratios yourself than using a 2 part and the benefit of tailoring your own ratios is you can get dialled in for every specific stage of growth, in veg you wanna run higher nitrogen and less phosphorus and in flower you want the revesere
you would get greater benefit using reg strains over autoflowers as autos dont really have a massive veg period, if i was growing reg strains you would see some serious veggative growth using my current nutes
cheers for the comments pal and nice to see you watching my back :thumbs:
Happy 420 SB, following this closely... at this stage of growth, how far do you have your lights. I switched mine over to the 1Watt setting today, and everything is looking good so far. Thanks for the explanation on the high EC that makes alot of sense.
just a few pics of the progress as im sure you guys and gals are slightly intrigued to see things develope in real time as and when they happen, if im being honest they look as if they should be on 1.6 ec as indicas normally have a nice dark green colour which im sure will become aparant as they get older
an underfed plant is much easier to treat than an overfed one, im gonna stick with my routine as they are getting upped in 2 days anyway
your right though bro they do look healthy and a good giveaway sign to an underfed seedling/early veg is the coytledons start to turn yellow as they start pulling from their reserves to sustain growth but you can see in 1 of the pics they're still green, its just me being fussy mate which is typical of hydro growers we like everything to be bang on :thumbs:
great stuff mate .1st set of 5's & as fat as the bucket already :dance: recon shes gunna be proper wide :dance2:. Any info on genetics ect yet or are we waiting for Tony's heads up ? :thumbs:
