If you add your nutes and the ec is too high then add water until you lower the ec to proper levels or use less nutes to reach your ec. Cheers

Dilution would be the only option. Are you shaking up your bites very well before use? This can give inconsistent results.

Substitute for liquid hydroponic nutrient solutions
Those solutions (like Hesi Hydro Growth) seem to be ridiculously overpriced, like 10β¬ for 1 liter fertilizer solution which consists of mostly water itself is a total ripoff in my understanding. Is there a substitute for those heavily overpriced nutrient solutions?

I tested the pH of my mediums and they were around 7 so, which I thought is too high so I watered with a 5 pH and I think this has brought the medium down to closer, around 6.5. I also put some worm castings for light top feed. Good ideas? Medium at 7 maybe caused yellowing?

When do you stop giving nutrients?
Pictures taken 3 weeks into flowering. Its 3.5 weeks now. Started as pretty basic potting soil, most of the nutrients im sure are gone. When do you switch to just pH corrected water to feed? Thinking 1 more week for my yellowing plants, and less for my very green one. Thoughts?
