Indoor Indoor 3x gorilla glue in coco coir first time grow

I am avoiding the net because it reduces acces to the plants, and I have decided to go the supercropping/ defoliation route to manage size and shape the canopy. I also pinched early on after the fourth node.
 
Hey Ryan, the link to my grow journal is in my signature below. Take a look and let me know if any questions. I would be happy to help you avoid mistakes I made.

Yes, with our small space, we can also use a trellis net to accomplish the same thing. The idea is to keep the top colas at a manageable height and give them all access to the light. And yes, topping or filming helps with the even canopy, but you can tuck longer stems in a net/Scrog to accomplish the same even canopy.
Hey I saw journal your plants look really good, I woke up this morning and found some brown spots on one of the leaves on the big girl, I just fed last night, but I looked in one of the pictures from 2 days ago and saw it was already growing. Wondering if its a calcium deficiency? I've been feeding cal-mag plus in every feed, about 60 ppms of it. I only feed about a half a liter for all 3 plants every 2 days. Usually 200 ppms but ive been upping it a little every day. Last feed was 270 ppm at 5.8. I mixed it a day in advance and lowered the pH again right before I fed. Is this enough? Or should I be feeding a lot more now that they are starting to really develop, let me know what you think.

Hey Pigskinfantasy, I keep seeing these tiny brown spots popping up the leaves, there hasn’t been any growth in the last 2 days. I wanna catch the problem while it’s just starting. I’ve been feeding about 250-350 ppm @ 5.7. What do you think is wrong ?

Hey Ryan, sorry man. Didn't see this alert earlier. Now, I have been lucky in my issues have always been heat and humidity related, but I haven't had to deal with any nute issues. The plants still look good to me, though, Ryan. I know there were days it seemed like my plants weren't growing, and sometimes that was actually true! I think your ppms are low enough that you can add to it. However. I haven't used calma, so I can't tell you specifically how much to increase by.

Again, though, the plants look healthy to me.
 
They don't look so bad to me either man. Not really sure what those little spots are. Just check your ph gojng in and make sure your water had sat out for 24 hours before you gave it to the plant. Obviously, check and adjust ph after it sits.
Then see what happens.
 
No feed also! She doesn't need that much. You may have over fed her a bit.
 
The more I look at them, I think they just look a little over watered, and maybe just ease off the nutes a touch. She might be a little sensitive that's all.

What is the ppm of the water to begin with? If that is the total, then you should be ok, but if that is in addition to what your water has in it, it may be too much.

Hey Pigskin, what ppm would you suggest me give to plants these size? I just upped it from 250 to 350 in my last feed, hope it wasn’t too big of change too quick. I’m probably just overthinking, I’m hoping she’s just working hard on her roots instead of being stunted, anyway thanks for the feedback! Will keep you updated

Hey Ryan, I would defer to MedCzech on this. Since he has way more experience and is familiar with coco. I didn’t feed anything for the first two weeks and then went to about 400 ppm for the next two or three weeks before gradually increasing to where I am now at 1100.

I know the nute company, plants, environment, temps, are different in each case, so it’s just seeing what works. You may look into the possible overwatering issue that Med pointed out before changing nites.

In any event, I am sure they will be fine by looking at them
