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

Plant does not drink nutes500ppm runoff
Why the smallest plant does not drink nutes ? The one in the video that I mention is having 500 ppm run off . What shall I do with the nutrition in order for the growth to explode like the other plants? What else I can add in this case and do I need more light for this amount?

Watering and darkness before harvest
I've been giving them just water for 2 weeks but I only let them get about 10% runoff. I want to put them in 48hrs darkness but not if they've just been watered. Looking for opinions: flush to 80% runoff now and harvest on Wed or leave them in darkness and cut them down on Wed?

1920 PPM Hydroponics DWC 4th Week Flowering
Is 1920 PPM too much during 4th week of flowering? My bubbleponics setup is: 2x600w HPS, 3 Quick Critical+ from Dinafem Indica plants in a 45 litres reservoir. Temperature is 23°C and RH is 70%. No Nutrients burn I think (just heat burn to higher buds)

If my compost pile has bugs, will my compost tea transfer bug eggs to my soil in an indoor grow?
I started a compost heap in the heat outside and added kitchen waste (fruit, veggies, fan leaves, egg shells, leaves). The heap has a lot of bug activity but far less since i put it in the heat. Is it safe to brew compost tea or will i transfer bug eggs to my soil?

Wrong pH! What to do when watering with wrong pH?
Hi you all and TIA, yesterday I watered my girls but after a few hours one of them started to get her leaves down, so I checked pH on my reservoir and it was 7.9!! So my question is what to do now? Do I wait for a few days and then water again with right pH or should I do it now?

Has anyone very used 'sta-green' potting soil on a grow, and if so, what kind of results did you get? I probably will not use it again, but it was what I had at the time, and really it's not doing as bad as I had thought it would. PEACE!

The pH of the runoff continues to drop below 6.0 with each feed, resulting with me trying to bounce it back every other watering. I would like for the pH to be more stable. Any ideas why this might be happening? I am using Advanced Nutrients pH perfect - Grow, Micro, Bloom.

Feeding After Trauma Question
I will feed super lightly tomorrow on August 7, but want to what other growers think. Kaboom toppled over on August 3. I refrained from feeding to allow her time to stabilize and have only watered once since the fall. In your grower opinion, was waiting to feed necessary? thx 😊

Flush duration in DWC
Okay, 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 :)
