As the plant grows the rates of transpiration increases proportionally. but the needs for nutrients does not.. That being said.. At 5-6 weeks I would expect the plants to use 3-4 liters every 2 days. So 10 or so liters a week each plant. In weeks 10-12 that should again be proportionally larger... Goes up to about 20 liters a week in aggressive bloom stages and tapers off again as the harvest time gets closer. No nutrients added mid week at all period..

at the moment I'm using a 250W HPS and 2 40W CFL, this takes humidity down. When I will afford LEDs do you think that the humidity will stay as per night or drop down like maximum 10% or it will have same behavior as with hps/cfl combo? Thanks

Critical Purple Auto in COCO: close to harvest.Triches still clear, most pistils have ambered. Picked up a digital microscope to check for the cloudy triches coming. Once I hit 50% cloudy, I am thinking of flushing for 4-5 days followed by a day of darkness . Any advice on feeding and flushing in these last couple of weeks?

Drastic change of humidity and temeperature.I didn't notice my plant had 35% RH and 29C for around 5 hours instead of the usual 50-55% RH and 22C, can this have stressed or even stunned my plant? Are there any long term effects? What can I do to fix this as fast as possible, I already adjusted the temps and humidity.

Should I harvest in 2-3 weeks ?Hey, do you think my plants might be ready in two weeks ? They're autos in 7th week of their life. I know that 9 weeks is ok for most, but these should take approx. 11 weeks. Do you think one more week of feeding, then flush would be appropriate ? Trichomes are mostly milky white

Super low runoff PH, even after corrective measures being taken. Plant otherwise okay, but probably isn't taking all her nutrients.My runoff PH has been hitting mid-5s, even after flushing (w/ & w/o additive). Been trying to raise with higher PH water, used 7.25PH water today and the runoff was still 5.56. She looks healthy other than some discoloration in some leaves, so it isn't killing her but.....????

Ph question If my pH run off is 7.2, do I lower the pH when I water to compensate ? I notice the next day pH water has risen to 7.2 so all the water that still soaking in will of risen too. This is confusing & is there anything other than biobuzz ph down that will remain the same ?
