flush until your run off is a 6.0. dry you pot out for a few days, resume everything but use less nutrients

How is about ppm? Be careful if you have hard water on your site... Maybe try with 50-50 RO 💪

Should I wait to flip?Since I just transplanted and amended my soil using gaia green amendments and geared them towards veg. I know the general rule is to allow 2 weeks for them organic amendments to break down, will that deter me from flipping to flower next week or should I wait if so how long?Week 7

Hello community! I broke 2 branches this week. The first one happened by accident when I was draining the runoff, and the other when I was bending it.And today I came across a video where the author explains that silica can cause brittleness of branches. Does anyone have experience with silica and have you experienced anything like this? I add potassium silicate with each watering, at a concentration of 15ppmFeeding. Chemical composition

Bad idea?Will a mars hydro TS1000 be too strong for a 60x60x140cm tent?
I have been using a TS600 and TS1000 in tandem in a tent 4x too big for the light level, I have been growing strong and tasty buds but with low yields so downsizing my tent size to maximise the light.Other. General questions

F44: dozens of gnats stucked on buds & sugar leavesHey,
I noticed dozens of gnats stucked on sugar leaves and buds trichomes/resin... I tried to pick them by hand but there are too many.
I saw articles about bud washing which seems to be a good thing except for higher mold risk.
Would it be the only way to smoke bug free weed?Other. Bugs

Flushing with RO Water (EC 0,0) or tap water (EC 0,8)?Hi.
I think, it's 1,5-2 weeks before they are ready to harvest.
Tell me, if you see something else in the pics. :)
I want to flush them now every 2 days with only water.
I have the opportunity of RO Water (EC 0,0).
Should i use the RO water or normal tap water (EC 0,8)?Week 11

What is shelf life of silver thiosulfate ("STS") in practice?I know it is recommended to use within 30days of mixing final solution.
However, what "works" can often be different from the recommendations. Has anyone used an STS solution they made after 2months? 6 months? How did it go?Other. General questions
