Indoor Need help/ advice! Blue dream deficiency!

[greenjeans]

I didn't mean to sound dismissive. I am new to this as well. We all learn as we go. Feeding just seems like one of those things that should be right up at the top of the priority list before planting. I hope it goes well for you. Research research research!!

It's quite alright...we all gotta start somewhere. Just maybe could have used a little more planning
before getting out of the gates

Trapper dyah know if the GOBOX has guide to proper amount? And then just take 1/2 off what they say to use until larger in growth?

Its okay Greenjeans, its hard to tell ones emotions or intent through web chat lol but i take any constructive criticism anyday. I am aware that was important and had taken notice to it. Wish i wasnt so busy with my engagement otherwise i wouldnt have made such a mistake. Picked a rough time to grow lol But work-in-progress! They are still alive and will make a comeback im sure of it. The GOBOX with all essential nutes shall be here tom. morning and will begin feeding at noon tom. Ill give me a couple days and re-post pics as an update and see what ya'll think!

I believe this is the feeding schedule that goes with the Go Box. Cut all of the numbers in half at first like Trapper said.

First off, good call. I know EXPERT grower's that use the GO line because of
its effectiveness and simplicity...

Now...while that's on the way, it's time to research soil pH, feed solution pH and terms
like "lock-out" and "deficiencies"

Get a cuppa joe and read this:

Hey, and BTW, Welcome to AFN

Another recommendation I can make is to set up a grow journal in New Growers sub-forum.

When another member can track your progress by going back a couple pages, it saves
a lot of your time explaining the scenario and what led to it. Plus, you get a fair amount
of traffic that can observe and chime in if they see something. It also helps you keep
track of what you've done

RE: GoBox Feed Schedule, looks like gj has yah covered...I'm more conservative by
nature and would start with quarter-strength recipes and move up to half-strength
while observing the leaf tips for nute burn. But that's just me and I've heard that the
GO line in the GoBox is relatively mild.

The other thing you're going to need to pay closer attention to is the
fact that you are in a hybrid medium...in that Coco is considered a "soil-less medium"
that desires one pH range...and soil, that desires a different pH range.

In your case, it appears as though the Coco is the dominant percentage of volume
so you'll most likely want to be trying to achieve and maintain the soil-less pH range
which, IIRC, is like 5.4 to 6.0.

But I would feel more comfortable with someone more familiar with Coco and Coco
hybrids to chime in on that.

I think you are pretty spot on

I am currently growing 2 blue dreams auto as well. Along with Royal ak auto. Theyre at day 22. Growing in plant magic soil. I think your girl might be stunted and few days behind :/

...and I'm germing a Blue Dream as we speak...

at Day 26, you basically have 2 to 2 and a half weeks of vegetative stage left. So as long as we get the
feed to them pretty soon, there is some salvage time.

I'll read up on the ph balancing act once I'm home from work. When I check the ph they all basically read "7-8". So I'll have to lower them to the range you suggested. And the feed will be here today so they should make a come back. Fingers crossed....the other girls I have seen to be growing at a good rate though. Just looked ll Ile the tiny one with fighter green coming out was having an issue
