Cheap PH down?
smokeyspartacus
started grow question 6y ago
Is it just me or is GHE/AT PH Down very diluted? I started with gGrowth Technology which is 81%. TA PH down has nothing stated on the bottle... What do you use as the cheapest way to get PH down in circulating hydroponics/DWC?

Not sure if it works with hydro/DWC but citric acid is a cheap pH down. It’s water soluble so I’d imagine it be ok. Worked great for my organic grows.

Did I give too much fertilizer??
So I decided to add in some soluble fertilizers. I gave it a 1/4 tsp (50% of recommended dosage) a couple days ago and noticed some yellowing of new growth on the bud sites. Is this a sign of excess potassium and phosphorus? I gave it Fox Farm Open Sesame (5-45-19).

Should you flush between veg and flower?
Should you flush between veg and flower? My friend said something about flushing my white widow auto since it just started flowering but I really haven't used a lot of nutrients on her at all so idk if it would make a difference or if it's even necessary.

Why is my run off high?
Coco and clay pebbles run off water reading 7.1 and my water going in is at 5.8. How do I fix it? I water twice a day with at least 20% run off every time. Should I water more often? Or do a flush to bring the pH back down. I know it should be the same going in and out.

Increase nutrition?
Should I up the nutes? I’ve been feeding 1/4 amount for the last 3 feeds. I’ve read that after first week of 1/4 up it to 1/2, but from what I can see (foliage pic added) everything looks like it’s quite healthy. Will plant benefit with more or should I stay as I am? Cheers
