Grow QuestionsPH meter was wrong

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👍

Coco grow, runoff EC levels LOWER than input levels. Hungry plants or something more sinister?Since getting a better light, runoff EC has been dropping steadily, and is now LOWER than input (~ -75 micros below). Not just an anomaly, this has been every feed for 3 days and is predictable. Could my plants be asking for more food in response to the growth from the new light?
