Promix users - High runoff PPM out of the bag?
BloodSweatBeersstarted grow question 3 years ago
For those who use promix, I'm wondering if you've noticed high outflow PPM from fresh promix? I'm using promix HPCC.
My inflow was 300
My outflow was nearly 2000
I calibrated my bluelab pen to ensure accuracy.
All numbers are on the PPM500 scale.

@nor-cal it depends on what promix variant he’s running. It can run hot in general. We aren’t talking time release nutrient pellets but yes there are amended options mx, bx, etc. Some are loaded with mycorrhizae and other beneficials.
@blood...tough spot for sure. Keep flushing and you’ll stress that young seedling. Don’t flush and you may burn her and stunt her anyways. Try to pull her out with intact root mass and repot and you’ll for sure stress her into a he.
Calling in backup...
@organoman what would you do?
Frigaultanswered grow question 3 years ago
I would flush heavily with 250ml of peroxide per gallon of water. It will do no stress to your seedling. In fact.. your seedling will by loving it. Expect a lot of fizz . And its the onlyway you can fully saturate a soil excessively without drowning a plant

Does promix have nutrients in the soil to start with? If so this would cause your high readings. 🤘😤

How much CO2 is sufficient?Hello people
I want to treat my girl with some CO2. I know all the ppm scales but don´t want to invest in a CO2-meter.
My growspace is roughly 52cm X 94cm X 150cm (0,73m3) and I want to add a 1.5L yeast CO2 generator, feeding it into the in-tent fan.
Will this be enough/too much?Other. Other

PH and EC problemHi, I have a problem with my plants. I´ve checked the runoff and was 7.0 PH.
When I was fertilizing I gave them nutes with PH 6.1 EC 1.2 and runoff was EC 0.4 and PH 6.8. When plain water EC 0.4 PH6.0 and 5.8, runoff EC was 0.4 -0.8, PH 6.7-7.0.
What should I do feed/not feed?

Hydroponic or soil - differences in taste?From what I can see on this website, hydroponic systems tend to give greater yields than soil-grown projects. However, I also read that the aroma is not as rich. Did someone here try to grow the same strain once in soil and once hydroponic and can give a personal taste review?Feeding. Other

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

FISH SHIT during flush - why? TIA ^_^To add or not to add fish shit. The bottle states that adding it during flushing will help break down salts and nutes, allowing flushing to happen faster. Seems logical to me though I hear JUST WATER is the way to go the last couple weeks.
Whats the community standard?

Is it better to adjust nutrition if using soil from a previous grow?One of my grows is nearing the end and is being flushed this week ready for the chop on Saturday. Do I need to adjust the feed schedule for the next grow to account for any residual nutrients in the soil from the last grow? I am using BioBizz Light-Mix soil & full BioBizz range.

Hydro - 3 strains. What consequences after slight veg overfeeding ? Do they look dark ?I've had technical issues on veg that resulted in a slight overfeeding and now they don't want to feed much (tap water 0.4 + 0.3 nutes), 5 days after 12/12. I'm not sure they will accept very much more, even when I'll introduce flo nutes. Will yield be weak ? And quality ? Thx

Coco growers......Looking for recommendations or experiences with nutrient lines specific to growing Autoflowers in coco.Plagron vs Canna vs TerraAquatic (GHE) vs Modified Lucas Formula
Plagron and Canna are easily sourced locally, GHE coco will need to be ordered.
Appreciate your time sharing your coco experience.
Thanks in advance!Feeding. Other
