New Grower First auto flower to start in a few weeks!

[DJ High]

Well my two girls (lovingly named Babette (LSD25) & Philomina (Hindu Kush) ) have just popped their heads above soil. Only watering/feeding about 20ml of nute-water in about a 2 inches ring around each plant once a day (1.25 ml/l MAGnifiCAL). Pics to come once they show first leaves. Humidity around 58% with temp at 78-80.

Quick question...is the cotton pre-filter 100% necessary on the inline carbon filter? What purpose does it have?

Ok so both little ladies are growing up a storm. Both are about 1" tall. Lowered the lights to about 24" and have started to feed/water about 50 ml per day in a doughnut shape around the seedlings. Nutes remain as stated in last post. Humidity 55% and temperature 77 with lights on and 72 with them off. see pics below.


This is the Hindu Kush (Philomina)

And this is the LSD25 (Babette)

pretty sure the cotton pre filter is a dust barrier to stop the filter clogging up if you leave it on for a year you will notice it get dirty looking with dust at least mine do

I need some advice Fam... ok I am only into the grow a few days and and am feeding/watering 50 ml per plant per day in a ring around plant. Today one of the girls seems to be a lighter green on the edges of the tiny leaves. I have to assume it is nute burn so I diluted the nute water by half...is this the correct assumption for you all also based on the pic below?

- water ph: 6.3
- ppm 221
- nutes given 1/4 strength Remo Calmag (1.25ml/g)
- Temp 78
- Humidity 52 - 58%

She may just be on the sensitive side!

That's kinda what I thought...the other one is totally fine. So you think the move to dilute is the correct one?

Time will tell! AKA, I'm not that knowledgeable!

id say it was the right move probly just a bit much so soon i dont feed anything for ten days apart from the initial cal mag charge to the coco

Yeah that's about what I was going to do too. I'm only doing the Cal Mag because I'm using Coco. Once I see the third set of leaves coming in I'll slowly start with the other nutes. Unless of course I start seeing signs of nutrient deficiencies and I may start earlier.

Arg! I require some advice. As you know I am using coco and the coco I bought (and now have my girls in) was supposed to be pre-rinsed and buffered...apparently I was incorrect. What recommendations do you have for doing a full flush/rinse of the coco? Do I remove the girls first or is there a way to safely do it with the 5 day old plants in the pots? I am not seeing any negative effects so I want to catch this issue now. Noob mistake... I need a
