I'd like to humbly ask anyone out there with previous experience using coco and canna nutrients for a little help creating a rough feeding guide.

Growing in Canna Professional + with clay pebbles through it in 3 gallon smart pots on this run (after this run dropping the pebbles)
Canna A & B, Rhizotonic, Cannazym, PK 13/14, Boost.
This run is all autos. Today will be day 7 of week 5 from germination. I have noticed bud sites from about 4-5 days ago so I'm treating this as day 5 flower.

I hand feed my babies whenever the coco is dry at the top and i feed them until there is a little run off. I mix my feeds on the day they're used, my Bluelab pens still haven't arrived (chased the seller up) so using cheap eBay ones for now.
The last feed they had was 16th - 1.5 ml/l A&B, 2ml/l Rhizo, 1.5 ml/l zym. I got these numbers by basically checking the canna schedule then using roughly half but I have been told this may still be too high and i believe that, a few of my lower leaves where stressed so it might very well be too strong and winging something so crucial is a bit silly when i could just ask for help.

The readings I had can be taken with a pinch of salt being cheap ebay crap but after i mixed the nutes it was showing an EC of 0.7, i also understand you want to start with a ph of around 5.7 or so and work your way up to around 6.3 as the plant matures ? Well i started at 5.7 and last feed was 5.9.

So that's about the extent of my knowledge so far. What I'm after is just a little fine tuning with what I'm doing nute wise . After this run my nutes will be changing so I didn't want to bother anyone until then but this winging it has me second guessing everything
Do I take it it will be Samwise helping you though this diary for the finish mate and then you do mentored grow from start to finish?

Hey fas, I am happy to offer my help, I see you are half way through a grow presently so might be better to do the mentored grow after this one.

I will pop along to your diary and have a read up and help out if I can :)

Hey people!!

So I am looking for a mentor to help me grow a monster grow in a 4 X 4 tent

I am looking at a few options, but I want to grow 4 plants, done in coco, perhaps LST or SCROG

I am tired of getting lower yields, I want to go after the big harvest with my 1000w HID/HPS

If anyone is serious and want to do this with me, daily communication, please let me know! I will follow all instructions given and I am sure we can make this happen. I have a few seeds to choose from, may do all 1 strain or may mix it up, not sure yet.

Anyways if anyone is interested in taking on this challenge with me, please reach out in PM

Cheers!

Hey Bulls,

Thanks a million for reaching out buddy! I do not have a EC meter but I do have a PPM meter, not sure I can get a EC meter right yet due to my personal circumstances. BUT I can agree on 4 plants the same strain.

I was thinking of doing 4 Granddaddy Purple seeds plants. I purchased GDP seeds off the GR420Seeds so that would work perfectly, and they are female.

Only thing I can't meet is your EC meter requirements. PH Meter and all the other stuff I do have.

I am looking at a couple weeks yet, I am almost done this grow, then I will be ready. Just planning and want some serious help to get some serious results. If we can do this then let me know. I can easily follow instructions and do as I am told.

What nutrients do you have available where you are?
I am not used to working with ppm and if nutrients are diffeewnt from what I am used to will be hard for me to adjust feeds.
