Watering practice okay?
facingbacktofrontstarted grow question 5 years ago
When I water, I run 2 gallons of Ro water through every plant. I let them sit and drain for about an hour then I proceed to water them again, but this time with nutes (1100 ppm/6.4 ph). Let them drain, then they go back into the tent. Is that a waste or not? I have no issue.

You're getting good results with your current practice, so if you enjoy doing it that way I don't see a problem!
That being said, a well managed grow with decent quality nutrients should not have to be flushed frequently (or at all) to produce good results. And it would not need it before every fertigation. So if it's taking you more time than you would like to spend, or costing you more in nutrients than you would like spend, you could adjust and not flush before fertilizing and probably save some time and money.
But since you are getting nice results with your plants currently you don't have to change anything you don't want to! I am sure you're going to end up with a great harvest, happy growing! 🌱👍

I wouldn't worry about that as long as the plants are all so beautiful like yours alle

Hello.. Hope you are well.. If ur plants are nice and healthy (which they do look!) then why change ur methods.. Its only a waste if ur paying money for ur ro water and if ur letting lots of drain off from nute feeding go down drain.. Its not a waste if ur collecting it and putting it down for plants in the garden outside.. Obviously only give evergreens veg and ur flowers bloom feeds so not to give them nutes they wont need.. I myself use any run off or excess solution from my mom/clones room for house plants n thy love it.. Again they dont needfood every watering.. Stay safe n gud luck.. 👍🍀

I got to harvest in 14 days: in order to have enough time to cure it before leaving home for 2 weeks (safety first: is a period of floods in here, I just can't take the risk). I had a pretty long vegetative stage but I'm gonna finish it at 13 weeks. Am I gonna ruin it it, right?

How much time could it be until the plant is ripe?Looking at the image of the trichomes (and ignoring the little black lint xD) can someone give me maybe a rough estimate on how long they could still take? Could it be a week, could it be 3 weeks?
I feel a bit unsure because I already see some amber ones too.

Help: potential over fertilisation or over waterningI used Biobizz bio grow, 2ml/L and sprayed them more than usual. The tip of the leaves is getting yellow. 2 plants have the leaves pointing down and seem more textured and tick. The other 2 (the biggest) seem better, but the yellowing of the leaves is more evident.

Questions about wateringI created a 40 ml solution, the instructions say to transplant after the sprout has grown to the top of the plastic cover and the roots are visible through the plug. The question is, is 40 ml of liquid enough for this growth? I think not.
