What to do? Where am I at now actually? I’m lost and slightly discouraged
When should I add happy frog fruit and bloom? This is my 3rd grow and im 0-2! I have a overfeeding problem but I’ve learned to be corrective and precise with ph and ppm and be pest preventative as well (heavy handed waterer as well..im trying). It’s day 5 of flower and I’m lost

Ph and ec in batmix??
Most of the people here telling me that i should regulate ph and ec when growing in soil (batmix) But on plagron website: Should I adjust the pH and EC values if I grow with Batmix? No, combined with our 100% NATURAL Grow Style you don't have to regulate the pH and EC value

Soil pH not adjusting even after watering pH water.
So Far I've been 6.5-7 pH water, & organic ferts BioThrive Grow, Bloom & CalMag. The soil pH doesn't seen to go any below 6.5; even though I've been feeding 5 pH water to make it lower. Why is this happening? What to do? Does organics in the soil auto-adjust the pH all by itself

I need a little help with Advanced Nutrients. Without the help of ppm.
Hello, a friend confused me with the use of Advanced Nutrients, this is the easiest way for me to conclude, question. We have A, B, C nutrients, each of them goes 1ml per liter, on 1l we put all 3 components A, B, C each one ml per liter, or only one milliliter goes to each liter

How do you guys determine if a plant is either overwatered or underwatered? Any tricks to notice the difference easier?
I find it hard to see/spot the difference between the two, and almost ruined #002 as you can see in the pictures of this week.

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 :)
