New Grower The Hazzle's first grow

The critical kush auto showing signs of flowering now.

The candy kush seems a little slow. I'm not sure if it was the 4 weeks of 24/0 that helped it grow but slow down the switch to flowering.
 
I'm putting water in PHd about 5.7/5.8 typically and just tested some of the run off and getting like 4.6. Shall I next feed it at 6.5? I'm in coco.

I never bother measuring run off pH, as long as I get good run off it will automatically renew/refresh itself. So I pH to 5.8 or above, usual 5.8 to 6.2. I don't use pH up after nutes, if needed I put it in first, then pH the whole solution back down. Putting in alkaline minerals, like pH up, into an already acidic solution will cause minerals to settle out.

The reason I don't go below 5.8 is the pH scale is logarithmic and each drop below 5.8 gets way harder to uptake calcium. Growing with LEDs I need all the calcium I can uptake.

Well plants seem to be ok apart from the slight clawing effect from possible excess nitrogen. Since switched to Bloom with zero N and only using 5ml. Il try feeding at 6.2 then.
 
Watered again. Getting quite a bit of run off with 1600ml will drop to 1200 eod.

New seeds arrived today and into riot rooters got some Girl Scout cookies, gorilla glue, painkiller xl (cbd) and cbd mass.
Got a 50w 5700k 4000 lumen light to veg them under in a small 60x60x90 tent until this current grow is done.
 
Candy kush up to 55cm. Critical at 50cm and probably just as wide
 
Possible problem. Hey guys this is getting worse shall I flush or just feed ph water for few days?
I've switched to Bloom with 0 nitrogen and get run off every time I water.

Added some ducting for intake leading to bottom of a window. Closed all passive intakes so no light leaks. Def feel a cold draft coming through ducting compared to before so should be an improvement.
 
Not sure why you can't keep your fan oscillating on your plants. I start blasting mine as seedlings and keep it all the way through. Long as my humidity is above 45-50, I'd rather get a little over transpiration than plants that are too weak to stand and get mold and mildew.

You do have some N tox, wasn't this a canna a+b grow? Should be pretty easy to find a good feed level. Are you using an EC or TDS meter? Most guys switch from measuring spoons to oral and irrigation syringes pretty quick. Much more accurate.

PS: I don't see any signs of over transpiration on those photos.

Reducing feed strength and getting good run off should sort things for you.

Yeah was coco and and b. Giving one of them a flush and seeing how it responds. No EC meter
