PH meter was wrong
RedEyes34started grow question 4 years ago
So I learned my lesson by not checking the calibration of my PH meter. It was off by .6 and I don’t know for how long. The run off of my plants are right at 6.0. Using FFOF soil. Will it bounce back now that I recalibrated my PH meter or do I need to flush all the plants.

How you solve this all depends on the size of your plants and the size pot they are in. If they are in small pots which don’t hold much water I would just water with a ph or 6.7 until the run off is back in range. If it’s in a big pot and big plant do the same as above, if it’s in a big pot but small plant I think I would wait till it needs another feed and feed at a ph of 6.9 but not till run off which should bring your ph in the soil back in range. Reason why I wouldn’t flush a small plant in a big pot as the over watering might cause more problems than the low ph.
Apologies for the long reply but just wanted to cover all bases buddy👍

Can coco loco soil use liquid nutrients? Or does it not need it?If I’m using Fox Farm Coco Loco soil, do I need to add nutrients? I’ve read somewhere that if I’m using coco noir, I might be better off using hydroponic nutrients? I purchased the fox farm liquid nutrient trio soil formula, but haven’t used it yet since I’m not sure.Feeding. Other

Watering Volume and FrequencyHi GD peeps. How much should I be watering these 10L fabric pots? So far I have bsen doing 500ml with no run-off, and just did 1.5L with little bit of runoff. Should I soak the pot on every feed with about 1.8 to 2L, and leave until moist-dry before next feed?5 years ago

Feeding rain water from distilled waterHello everyone,
Currently I’m using distilled water to feed my plants and i collected some buckets of rain water for the past few days. I checked the ph level and it’s a bit high. I have ph down and up to adjust it. Is it ok to switch using the rain water with added nutrients?Week 5

Flush duration in DWCOkay, so here's the deal. A lot of people say that flushing should take a week or two. BUT flushing DWC could take only as little as 2 days. Is that true or does the medium really not matter at all? THX :)Other. General questions

DWC PPM First feedI used rainwater with ppm of 15-18 and mixed 8 gallons with 18 ml of GHE Bloom, Gro and Micro with 4 ml of CalMag. Both buckets have new PPM of 350-390. Is that too aggressive for day 9? Or can I push more? New to DWC and growing and hoping for some applied knowledge. ThanksWeek 1
