OK tupur is NOT coco it both wets up & dries out much faster than any coco blends I have concoction so far up to 60/40 coco perlite I could see where a non cloth pot would work but this is gonna work but it's gonna require maintenance twice daily long term e&f tub ,res & timer is a thought meanwhile this is gonna work I figure 9-14 days things should look better I hit them with water tonight tomorrow I mix nutesIMG_2322.JPGIMG_2323.JPG

Get it wet enough to run off. If it needs more water the same day then your pot is too small.

What's up herk. tupar will help turn them ladies around. Best luck! . Dam this heat. Hope your keeping cool :)
The heat I'm afraid isn't letting up any time soon but I'm seeing slight signs of recovery I'm figuring out the care & handling of this stuff as I salvage my grows in the process I fed this morning it may be wishful thinking on my part but I like to think the new growth is straightening out another week will tell the story IMG_2325.JPGIMG_2329.JPG IMG_2330.JPG

no change these are worse than I originally thought hopefully they pull through the plant on the left I'm sure will snap out of it it's the one on the right I'm doubtful about she is very lethargicIMG_2334.JPG

Hopefully you used a light soil mix with really good drainage. If she's drowned, she's done.
used royal gold tupur right out of the bag been in the smart pots 3 days.prior to that they were in dwc where the problem started I believe due to 91.f res. temp

Make sure it drains thoroughly. I tilt the pot to get it to run off completely.

Don't water again until the pot gets light.
thanks ttystikk I know you have experience with the tupur & although it has coco in it it's a bit different I've done a few grows in 70/30% & 60/40% coco / perlite this is different

That's why I stick to soil. Yeah it grows faster in hydro/coco. But I mix enough perlite in my soil thst I pretty much gotta water every day almost. It's like 1 1/2 days. But I imagine the big pineapple express v2 will need watered every day when I switch to flower. But this damn blue mammoth auto is holding them. I'm thinking about switching to 12/12 and letting it finish out under that light schedule.

I wouldn't jeopardize the other plants because 1 auto flowering plant isn't programming because in the end I think you'll be much happier with the photoperiod plants I think you'll be ok flipping the auto flowering plant right along with the rest

this could end up being a 1 plant grow lol I had to try this as a last ditch effort to salvage this -vs- starting over I do however have a batch of clones started lol....
I remember a guy here years ago who only did one plant grows. He regularly pulled 550g from a 3x3 tent under a 600W HPS. He had a hempy setup with low pressure aero for the roots, if I recall correctly.

According to him, it was all about the training.

That's what I thought. I didn't think it would hurt the auto to flip it now with the rest. It might not produce as much, but the smell it has is unreal. It might actually be a decent pheno. Bc it smells super dank. It might be some good personal stash stuff. And if it is I hate to kill yield by flipping it ya know.

I'm hoping to get close to a pound wet from my big pineapple express, if not I know with it and one I mainlined together should be over a pound. 2 plants 1 pound is still decent.
