Topdressing is normally done 2 or 3 times during flower depending on the strains flowering time. A good time to topdress (but it also depends on what you're using) is beginning of flower and mid flower 👍🌱

GHE Waterfarm - pump timing
Hi all! I am using Waterfarm from GHE and I have set it up so the pump goes on and off at same time with the lights. Is this timing OK or is it better to just run the pump 24/7? I have no experience in hydroponic yet.

Hi, happy growing 😁 When do you start adding Overdrive by Advanced Nutrients to your feed? I read the bottle says the last 2 weeks add 2-4 times /week as necessary. I think I have about 3 weeks left to grow! Thanks 💪😋👍

When to flush?
Checked trichs under a scope. Lots of clear and cloudy trichs, no amber. How soon should I think about flushing? Using Ebb and Flow. Pics are of my most mature plant. Others are up to 2-3 weeks behind, would really love to harvest all plants together. Week 6 of flower.

General health
Advice please just on wether it's looking healthy. :) I've been too careful with watering and some leaves turned yellow. Feeding 1 litre every other day but maybe that's too little? Stopped with the Biobiz fish and switch to growbloom. Leaves at the top look droopy still?

How much to water (week 3-4)
When is a good indication of when to start watering pots until runoff? Plants are small in 3 gallon fabric pots (3:1 coco to perlite) right now and topsoil dries out within 24 hours feeding 500ml of water a day. Had issues overwatering in small plastic pots earlier on in seedling

I Made a Big Mistake
I forgot the timer open and the plant has been lighting for 2 days now. Normally I have to turn the lights off at 6 pm. What should I do? Should I wait until 6pm? Or should I turn it off and switch to a new light schedule? Photoperiod - 5th Week of Flowering Phase

would it be a problem to change the nutrient family in the first week of flowering?
in the hope of a better taste, I would replace my well-proven nutrition family with nutrients from an “advanced nutrients” company. would it be a problem? I found two nutrition guides, which should I use?

Frequency of nutrients. Is twice a week too much? If they can absorb all the water
. I run a dehumidifier and the plants run dry quite quickly. Could I possibly give my plant nutrients twice a week? I am using the technaflora recipe for success. Could I just feed a half a gallon to them instead of 1 gallon twice weekly ? They suck up 2 gallons every 2 days

what EC do you feed and how often?
I've been giving 6.5 pH water once and the next time I add nutrients until I get an EC of 1mS/cm. This was ok before (runoff didn't show many nutrients on soil). Now I water 2.5L/day but the plant leaves nutrients in soil (runoff EC increases rapidly!) It's in week 4 of flower.

Maximizing terpenes
How to maximize terpene production? I'm growing a strain that is supposed to be super stinky, and I so desperately want to get the full potential from this Chemdog cross. What does the plant need for producing terpenes and thiols? (My setup requires fully dissolved nutrients.)
