И не забывай калибровать (поправлять) свой ph-метр каждый раз, перед смешиванием нового полива! Ты должен понимать, что это устройство может каждый раз врать и ты должен контролировать правильность его показаний..... к примеру.... выбери себе "калибровочный раствор" или приготовь из пакетиков с порошком, идущих в упаковке с ph-метром. Откалибруй по растворам свой прибор и сверь с водой из под крана...... как только значения стабилизируются в водопроводной воде - запомни их! Теперь водопроводная вода один из твоих "калибровочных растворов", ты каждый раз можешь калибровать по водопроводной воде и по некоторым обычным веществам, которые все имеют у себя дома, к примеру:
- шампунь или чёрный чай 5,5ph
- морская вода 8ph
- отбеливатель (хлорная основа) 12,5ph
- пиво 4,5ph
- coca-cola 2.5ph
В наборе с ph-метром идёт маленькая отвертка, которой необходимо настраивать прибор, посредством прокрутки калибровочного винта, расположенного в устройстве на противоположной стороне от экрана. 😇👌 Помещаешь включенный прибор в калибровочный раствор, ждёшь стабилизации показаний и крутишь винт в те значения, в которых примерно должна быть калибровочная жидкость. После промываешь в чистой воде свой прибор и помещаешь его в другой калибровочный раствор, снова ждёшь и крутишь..... я делаю раз в месяц полную калибровку на 3-4 основах. Но ежедневно калибрую прибор на одной основе - воде из скважины с 8.3ph 😇👌
Удачи, друг! 😇✊

Hello
Soil has natural buffering capacity so that may be why the runoff water is coming out in the right range of 6.4 this is a good thing as it tells what the root zone ph is. Keep monitoring the runoff water because if it gets a higher ph you'll want to adjust the ingoing water to a lower ph than 7.3 if you don't have the drops you can use lemon juice to lower the ph, or sulfur/lime products too. Just try to keep the ph above 6.2 but below 7 at the root zone, 6.5 seems to be a good zone to aim for.
For your ppm you want it somewhere between 400-800 ppm for water with nutrients. I don't know if all your numbers are pretty good because of the recent transplant... or if you're just lucky and doing all the right things...but either way keep it up and keep checking periodically for changes.
Happy growing

Отлично, бро! С этими приборами дело пойдёт в нормальном русле! 😇👌
Старайся не превышать 500ppm в почве.... правильный цикл полива - 1 раз удобрениями - 2 раза водой..... всегда соблюдай верный ph раствора! Кислотность раствора характеризует кислотность почвы! ph для твоей стадии развития - 6,2-6,3 в почве! Не закармливай растение, старайся давать половину дозы, которую рекомендует производитель твоих удобрений! Всегда следи за выходом ppm и ph раствора при поливе. Снимай конечные значения с вышедшей жидкости из дренажа! Корням в почве необходим минимальный пролив при каждом поливе, чтоб свежий кислород прошел вслед за водой к корням! 😇👌
Твой выход дренажа 500-700 ppm слегка завышен для этой стадии.....старайся удерживать засоленность почвы 300-500ppm для стадии саженца - начала вегетации (для сативы) и 300-600ppm (для индики). 😇👌
Помни, брат, что недокармливание растения всегда легче исправить, чем передозировку растения! 😇👆
Удачи, друг! 😇✊

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.

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.

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

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

Should I switch to well water?I use tap water. For our normal flower/vegetable garden we use well water. I measured the EC/PPM of both.
Tap: 0.5 mS/cm (=320 ppm), we live in an area with soft tapwater according to Water Agency (11°F-13°F max)
Well: 0.32 (=205 ppm) -> how do I interpret this for well water?Feeding. Other
