I started this cycle 5 weeks ago as I did it many times before except one thing. I reused the coconut substrate without wash out it from salts of the previous cycle and it was my mistake. The first two weeks everything was fine. Then uneven brown spots began to appear on the leaves. By measuring the ppm of the solution at the outlet of the pot I found very high TDS values up to 4000 - 6000 ppm. 😨 Fortunately I could manage this issue washing out the substrate by clean water 80 ppm. Then I added calcium and magnesium and did not water it for 4 days to allow the substrate to dry out. The flowers slowed down in development by 7-10 days but the flushing helped them get better. After 26 days I switched the light regime from 18 to 6 to 12 to 12. After 9-12 days, they all showed female gender. 5 weeks after starting my girls look and feel great.
