*UPDATE*
WHITE CHEM - Day 73
She will be going dark, starting tonight...and she will be cut down on Friday(my next day off). I stopped feeding her 4 or 5 days ago and she is starting to fade. She definitely has an interesting bud structure. Do you guys think that is a strain characteristic or is that "fox-tailing" from light stress?![]()

Not sure on what kind but if you have shrooms growing that far out soil is staying way to wet. Nice growing so far, I find density to come in those final 2 weeks. Most chops I find are around day 80-90.Anyone know what type of mushroom/fungi this is? I am growing in Royal Gold Tupur coco and have only given that seedling plain water and a light dose of Alliance Biologics root inoculant. Been using the same coco and inoculant for the last few months and never had anything of the sort pop up.![]()

Do you have an accurate 8 soil meter? I have found it is way more accurate than doing the runoff test, it has saved me a few times. Fox farms has been known to me a little hot especially with autos. I think you will survive it, just not optimal.My lights are at 24 inches....which is what i read is the norm for Quantum Boards and seedlings. My little cheap 3-way meter(Light, Moist, pH) was saying myOF is 7.5. I thought the thing wasn't working so I put a drop of pH Down straight in the cup of soil I had tester in and it started dropping....so I know that it is working...what I dont know is how accurate it is. I tested my runoff today(with Digital pH Meter) and it was at 6.2. So idk? I have already bought new soil(Roots Organic) in case I decide to start 2 more seeds(which I'm pretty sure I am going to do tonight when I get off work).

I appreciate the advice. I am currently growing in Royal Gold Tupur coco...NOT soil though. Only runoff testing I do now is PPM's....so I know how much(roughly) the plant is using of my mix and to mostly make sure that I do not get buildup and the ppms don't get out of whack.Do you have an accurate 8 soil meter?

I am not an expert but I think the soil is a little hot. Lockout would not be that big of a deal at 12 days. I have left seedlings in straight coco no nutes for that long without real issues. If you confident in your PH reading I would roll with it and see how it works out. On the next run you could always fill the top part of your pot with something a little less hot. Like the roots you have.
This next part is my personal soap box so disregard if you like.
If you are paying for a premium soil mix (especially with autos being lighter feeders) why would you need nutes? If you get some deficiancies later in flower P or K then I would supplement. I cant imagine you are going to have an N deficiency with that soil on your first run. (i cut my rant on overfeeding and bottles because honestly I am high as fuck and you do not probably want to suffer through it)
I have started plenty of plants in the Roots Organic Green Bag and Brown (not sure of the name) with zero issues, it is a good product overall. I do not use them anymore (just mix my own) but I bought the bags when the hydro store had a bunch of them that were ripped and they could not sell them at regular price.
Sorry for the long post. If you have any questions I will do my best to help just tag me and let me know.
