Hi fellow mj lovers
I'm new to the forums and new to growing also.
I've currently got 5 seedlings in small square pots, using soil under 400w HPS in a 4x4ft tent.
Anyways, some of the plants are very small for their age, so I decided to switch to coco coir.
I went out shopping today and bought a 50L bag of coco. Also got an EC tester, and some nutes. The nutes I bought were called Nutrifield Coco NF.
It is 2 part. On the bottle is says not to mix a and b concentrate. I assume that means I can mix them diluted? I got a bucket of water, added some part a and then added some part b. Is that right? Or am I supposed to do them separately.
Also, bottle A says seedlings EC 0.6-1.2
Bottle B has the same, EC 0.6-1.2 for seedlings and transplants.
Once I have mixed part a and b into water, do I want 0.6-1.2 for each part (a&b) or do I need that reading as a total
I thought I needed 2.4, so I mixed it all up until I got a reading of 2 on my EC meter and used that to water my transplanted seedling. I don't know if I'm reading my meter right, as its supposed to read in 0.1 increments but there is no decimal place lol
I chose the seedling that was doing the worst, lol, so if I **** it up I wont miss it.
Anyways, instead of waiting 3-4 days to see how this does, I thought I'd be better off posting to see what others think. I'd really like to transplant the rest tomorrow, as come monday I'm back to work and wont have time to do it.
Cheers
