Feed with plain, pH'd water. Your EC should begin to fall. Start feeding again when its where you want it.

Nutrient Help possibly needed
For my first grow I have kept things fairly simple. I had issues with my soil PH which stopped nutrient uptake but seems to have now resolved that for the most part. Are there any other nutes that are recommended to help bud production or am I ok with what I have now? Thanks

Hungry? N deficiency?
So this sort of just happened overnight. Plants were very thirsty this morning and noticed a handful of leaves that are fading. I fed them 1tbs of dr earths flower girl and 4ml of calmag in a gallon split between the 2. Should I add some of their 4-4-4 as well?

pH very low (5.0) but plants seem to appreciate it!!
The pH of the reservoir is lower than the perfect range (5.0) during flowering stage for almost 2 weeks but plants don't seem to suffer. They are growing very fast. Should I change it or leave it if they seem good?

Yellow leaves
my little GG2 is starting to lose many leaves (they turn yellow and fall even before drying) while the other is not having any problems (the only difference between the two is the "aggressiveness" used in the LST) it could be due to the flushing done (but less than 5 days ago) 🤔

Liquid oxygen
Would you all use this in your water when trying to give oxygen to the roots? I’m noticing some really dense, not drying up that quickly soil so it’s making me think that they can’t breath. I don’t know, just making sure every part of the plant is happy & healthy.

Calcium deficiency impossible to fix.
I cannot get ahead of calcium deficiency in spite of adding calcium nitrate base with extra cal-mag daily. I just keeps getting worse and worse... any advice? Hydroponic RDWC, day 29 flower. It’s fine in veg, once they hit bloom, can’t keep them healthy.

Friends need your help! the leaves turn yellow at the seedling stage!
Friends, help me figure it out! First I will describe my conditions! - Tap water 110 ppm - LED QB288 Rspec 250 Watt light works at half the power! - Advanced Nutrients three-component Fertilizers Micro Grow Bloom now I'll tell you how it was! after they have sprouted! they were planted in the system! I made the solution on the recommendation of the fertilizer manufacturer! I added 1 ml/l of each component and it turned out 410 ppm! The second week I changed the solution completely and added 2 ml/l of each component, it turned out 600 ppm the yellowness on the leaves appeared after the first week! I thought it was a magnesium or iron deficiency! and I changed the solution and added 2 ml / l of fertilizers! I keep the ph of the solution within 5.7-6.0 drip irrigation works constantly! The temperature in the box is 23-25 C - humidity is 40-60% Inside, there is a fan on top that turns 360 degrees to blow the plants!

Yellowing a bit too soon
During the second week, leaves started to look a little bit yellow. The first true leaves yellowed way too soon. I'm guessing lack of nutrients. It never showed signs of drought or overwater stress. Your thoughts? I planted it into larger 2.5 liter container now.

I keep loosing leaves to some sort of nasty necrosis. It affects leaves at all levels, small and big randomly. I had to remove a lot of dying foliage
At first it looks like a asymmetrical spot of leaf starting to thin out to lighter color then tissue dries and turn black. I have high runoff EC3.3 and I blame Easy boost pellets because I only add rootjuice 1ml/L and sugar royal 0.5ml/L to my water. What is it and how I fix it?
