I noticed that the EC Runoff level is lower than what I am feeding to the plants? Is this a good or bad thing. Any suggestions?

It's a normal thing and it's good for you : it means your babies are eating nutrients, which tends to decrease the electrical conductivity. I'll be around, happy growing bro!

Yes the soil is absorbing some of the nutrients from the solution effectively filtering it

Anyone know where I can find some blue diamond seeds? Trying to create blue zkittlez. Got sum in a dispensary in vegas and the smell and taste was amazing. Tangerine with a hint of blueberry. Completley throws ur balance off when the high hits. Feels like nothing I've ever tried.

Is there any way I can prolong the veg stage to allow the pant to get a bit bigger. I was thinking if I topped her she will be forced to put out new growth but I have no idea if this is possible with auto flowers. Could this be detrimental to the plant? What should I do?

Trim side shoots @ week 3 flower?
I plan to do a final defoliation at the start of week 3 flowering. Lots of side shoots growing from the branches, should I snip those off during this final defoliation or will they produce decent buds? 4-way LST, 2 1/2’ diameter canopy

What are the beige/brown spots a sign of? Why are the two Cookies plants always droopy yet the Blue Dream never droopy and they have all been watered the same. Roughly 1g each every 5 or so days when pots are dry and light. My light is up to 30" so that's not it.

What next? Scrog for a week and take off a lot of the lower plant. Scrog without too much trimming. Or flip in the next few days
