I have 3 bluedream autos going and their not growing anymore and turning light green. Runing a giixer 1k and humidifier. The light is 20 inches away and the humidity is 70% with a temp of 72. Im a newby and dont know what to do. The first pic sprouted on 9/10 and 5 days later for the last pic. Thx in advance.20210920_171941.jpg20210920_171949.jpg

Is that coco?
Why did you start in such a large pot?
Maintaining the correct moisture level for good growth will be a challenge until the roots grow significantly.
Contrary to the bro-science..........autos can be transplanted without issue.
Yes its coco, i watched about 3 hrs of youtube and its gotten me here. Ijust transplanted into a cup. It had roots about the size of a penny.

Coco is dry as a bone. Ditch the Vivosun moisture meter, it's not doing you any good especially for a coco grow. Start your plants in a small container and transplant when they are ready.

I feed every 3 days with every other feeding is with nutes. I dont drench the whole pot, just under the plant with aboit 30-40ml.
Apparently you didn't bother to go to the website I provided in post #6.
Your coco is bone dry.
Coco should be fed every day to substantial run off.........this isn't soil.
Never give plain water.
Never let the coco dry out.

If you continue to treat it like soil instead of coco..........you will fail.

Guilty on not going and reading up on the site. I went and read the article and I must say it hammered in. Thx for calling me out if it weren't for that I wouldn't have remembered that you gave me a link.

Aaannnnddddd here's what I get for not remembering to read what you told me to. What could this be? I dug around and came to the uneducated assumption that its a phosphorus problem or a lack of. So I mixed a 1/4 dose of tiger bloom and fed at 7p last nght. At the time it was on 1 leaf now its on 2. I have a full blown 60 × 25ft garden with all my crops doing great. Now a couple of plants in my rooms kicking my ass!!!!!!!>:(

Ok, here's an update. The environment is 83° and 60-65% humidity. They are on a 20/4 light schedule. Feeding regular veg nutes no more than 850ppm and a ph of 5.8 - 6.0. I did a run off test and the ppm was 160 after 3 days of just water and a e.c. of 700. I think im getting the hang of it but each new day brings new challenges. Any feed back is greatly appreciated thx.20211101_152234.jpg20211101_152239.jpg20211101_152245.jpg
