Overwatered?

Oh no, Joe! Hope she comes back brotha. I’m sure she will. Wish I could be of help, but I’m in soil (not that I’d be much help anyways - I’m on day 11 of my very first grow). Keep us posted

Thanks man, I discovered here that I got some bad info on not giving nutes every day in coco so hit her with a full dose and will continue and hope for the best. I’m surprised my very first plant is just alive at this point hahaaa. Coco made me learn about nutrients which is great but I have some 8 day olds growing in soil and I’m excited about them.

If you're running in coco, you want to water every day and have nutes in your water every time. Water to runoff every time. If your coco is really moist and you get runoff really fast, you may be able to skip a day. Your plant looks like it will be ok. How long do you have your lights on for?

Shes already looking much better today after 2 days of a solid feed. I’m not gonna listen to anybody outside of this forum again, Thanks @Shugrows @GreenBean and @BonsaiBerry for the input! Now ive got to perfect my water technique with my 5gal soil babies. I read here somewhere that once you do your weighing and get your water weight it’s good to water when you’ve lost 50% of the water weight. So I’ll be lurking around lol. Hope all is growing well with you!

Glad to hear. And yes, water/fertigate your coco plants every day until you get about 20% runoff. Make sure to remove the runoff. If you're plants are on elevators and sitting in saucers OUT of the runoff, sometimes I will leave a bit of water in the saucers if I need extra humidity in the tent. If your plants are sitting IN the runoff, remove the runoff right away. Dump it out, or invest in a little shop vac to make it easier.

They’re on a grate about 2 inches off the floor, I figured all around ventilation in the fabric pot was best?

That works, how do you handle the runoff out of the bottom of the pot?

I just let it soak into a couple ”garage towels“ lol. Im in my garage in the backyard and sometimes I just water em right outside under the patio cover on a grate until a nice amount of runoff comes out since it only takes a minute

Got it. Yeah, I'm too lazy to drag them out to water. Soooooo....saucers, elevators and shop vac it is! Good luck with your grow.
