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

Any recommendations for additional nutrients? Never used a Cal-Mag supplement or anything like that, but also haven't had any issues yet.

Would I be able to fit another plant in my 80x80x180, or would it get too crowded in there?

Now after 11 days the roots show on the bottom of 1 of my 1L airpots, the plant is only 4-5cm high, so i assume the pot can't be fully rooted, but the roots already show on the bottom... My question is: when should i repot into my final 12l airpot?

I may be jumping the gun here, but when should I start topping photoperiods? And when should I transplant them? Should I wait for the root mass to fill the pot?

Hi, It's my first grow and I need advice again. I have a small Orion F1 auto, she's flowering for 24 days (47 days old). I have these buds under scrog that don't get enough light and don't seem to grow fast enough. Do I remove them? Will it help or stun my plant at this stage? TY

flowering fem lollipopping?
First week flowering, should cut away the less exposed sprouts? Branch in pic 1 is almost totally hidden and you can see it being much smaller. Also not sure about cutting the two tiny sprouts in pic 2, there are many similar to those in other branches.

Can anyone recommend me a fairly inexpensive but accurate ph meter? I ordered one from amazon (the best seller) and upon calibrating it it's so all over the place with its readings. I need something I can trust and dont have to calibrate all the time?

What do you guys think about the praying leaves? The internet seems to disagree. Most people seem to think it's a good thing. Everything is in high gear and the leaves are using all of the energy to absorb light. Some camps say it's too much light and it's stressing out.

Any advice for growing with coco outdoors in the rain? Wet week ahead. I’m wondering if I should increase my feeding from once to twice a day to prevent the coco being flushed too much? Or if I should have a stronger nute mix when feeding in rain?

Defoliation early flower?
Is this too much foliage? I feel like removing fan leaves during the stretching period is bad but there is barely any light getting through the plant at this point:s

Remove lower branches on this grow?
Should I just remove the lower branches or keep them? They are getting pretty heavily shaded but I rotate the grow bag daily to expose the under canopy growth. This is the only plant I have ever not been able to LST the main Cola, I opted to top it and LST'ed the lower branches.
