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! 🌱👍

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.. 👍🍀

Feeding right after repotting (coco coir).After repotting an auto flowering plant I get runoff EC of 800, while feeding water has EC 1200.
I guess EC gets diluted (biggest part of coco coir is new).
Should I increase EC of the feeding water?
I see slower growth but it may as well be due to stress of repotting.Setup. Strain - Autoflowering

expert opinion asked ? Maturity in day 49 flower from 60-65 (according to breeder)Maturity in day 49 flower from 60-65 (according to breeder)
I'm not sure about the degree of ripeness.
I used Co2 for a few weeks (1000ppm), the grower says ~60-70 days of flowering, so I would be missing 10-20 days, but they look quite ripe ?
What should I do
Thank you

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.

Should I harvest in 2-3 weeks ?Hey, do you think my plants might be ready in two weeks ? They're autos in 7th week of their life. I know that 9 weeks is ok for most, but these should take approx. 11 weeks. Do you think one more week of feeding, then flush would be appropriate ? Trichomes are mostly milky white

I added mycorrhiza to the coco coir from a local store. It turned out that there is slow release fertilizers in it. Was not indicated on the packaging.Please Help!
First time after watering with 5.7pH 400ppm drainage water was 6.7pH and 800ppm. I flushed her to 400ppm.
Yesterday was the second watering (450ppm, 5.7pH) and drain was 700ppm 6.7pH. I flushed her to 460ppm (1.5l of water), but pH still 6.6
