Go slow on how much you give them. Overfeed and your harvest will suffer. A little underfed is always the best way to go for big buds. Cheers

I make up nutrients in a 20-liter pail, but the pH rises significantly the next day. Is this due to the fact that I am using aeration to supply oxygen as advised by a friend? Do you use aeration? Also, is there anything I can do to reduce the pH fluctuation?

Feeding right after repotting (coco coir).After repotting an auto flowering plant I get runoff EC of 800, while feeding water has EC 1200. I guess EC gets diluted (biggest part of coco coir is new). Should I increase EC of the feeding water? I see slower growth but it may as well be due to stress of repotting.

Hydro - Ec stable, Ph dropping - Raise EC instead of lowering it ?I have the feeling that when there's not a lot of nutes, PH drops but it means I have to add EC, not lower it. I noticed this when I fed them with a very low EC. I added more EC and they ate a lot right away. What did you experience ? Has to do with them eating all cal-mag ? THX

runoff PPM extremely high.So, I am using tap water and its ppm is between 300-400. However I just checked by runoff water PPM and it came over 2500 with ph around 6. I have not used any fertilizer whatsoever and the soil is BioBizz Ligth Mix. What could be causing this issue?

Hey guys! I have a question: how do you determine the last 10 days/week of color when you need to switch to ripen? The passport only works in ideal conditions! How do you determine it, by the color of the trichomes, or what? Good luck and happy growing!

What is the best (cheap) TDS meter? (Also i think they should allow longer questions because 280 characters definitely not enough to describe everything).On the internet and i found A LOT of TDS meters with prices that vary from 10€ to 200€. I decided to ask you: what do you think is the best cheap TDS meter? What do you use? What's the key thing I should considerate when buying one? Are all the same and i'm askin stupid question?

Ready for a flushing ?As I don't have any magnifying glass or microscope to check the trichomes, I'm relying on the color of the pistils to evaluate the maturity of the plants. However, as it is my first grow, I don't really now if they are ready for a flushing. What do you think ?

Hydroponic PPM and feeding. How do I match magnesium sulphate to potassium for flowering??Do I got this right? Hydroponic Flowering cannabis eats at a rate of 1-1-2 and for maximum useage, feeding 1-1-2 makes sense. Extra nutes outside the ratio is wasted and extra. You want highest PPM possible before burning. Will extra Cal-Mag burn roots/leaves?
