Watering practice okay?
facingbacktofrontstarted grow question 4 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! 🌱👍

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.. 👍🍀

Soil pH not adjusting even after watering pH water.So Far I've been 6.5-7 pH water, & organic ferts BioThrive Grow, Bloom & CalMag. The soil pH doesn't seen to go any below 6.5; even though I've been feeding 5 pH water to make it lower. Why is this happening? What to do? Does organics in the soil auto-adjust the pH all by itself

When to use terra aquatica ripen? Wait until they look ready to harvest or when they look like they will be ready in 2 weeks while using ripen?I'm coming to the end & I think they need a few more weeks at least, but I may be just kidding myself, thinking they're gonna double in size.
I'm gonna use ripen for the final 2 weeks with a 48h flash clean before & after, so should I start now or wait for more amber trichomes?
