Week 2
——
Wednesday: Day 8
—-
Started blues main nutrient feeding. She seem to be loving life at the moment. Getting bigger by the day.
Run off:30%
Run off ph: 6.1
Run off EC 2.4
I believe the run off ec is so high is because the coco mix I used is pre blended with charge. The reason I think this is today feed was the highest EC I’ve done and that was 1.5 EC.
—-
Day 9
—-
Increased her base nutrients by .5ml/l it added an extra 0.3 ec that yesterday feed, but the sound of the medium Snap crackle and popping it quite relaxing. Is this the zen water at work?
Final EC: 1.8
Run Off: 27%
Run Off PH: 6.0
Run Off EC: Still way over what it mean to be but it’s going down, I still believe it’s too do with Ecothrive Charge being in the coco already.
Blue looking very healthy even tho the high ec run off.
