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

Opinion - is Top Max (biobizz) worth it?
Hi all. I have the try pack (bio bloom, alg a mic and bio grow) and other two organic fertilizers (one has 16% P, along with calcium, mg and microelements. The other has 8% K). Do you think I'd also benefit from Top Max or what I have is enough? Anyone have experiencies with it?

I’ve been flushing for 2 weeks. At what TDS runoff level do you harvest the plant?
I’ve been flushing my plant with properly pH’ed water for the last 2 weeks. Today the TDS runoff was 530 ppm. What is the appropriate TDS level to reach BEFORE harvesting the plant? What is a good TDS runoff level to determine if it’s good to harvest or not?

Substitute for liquid hydroponic nutrient solutions
Those solutions (like Hesi Hydro Growth) seem to be ridiculously overpriced, like 10€ for 1 liter fertilizer solution which consists of mostly water itself is a total ripoff in my understanding. Is there a substitute for those heavily overpriced nutrient solutions?

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 :)
