started grow question 5y ago
Say if I get a high reading of 800ppm from runoff. And my goal is to be around 650ppm. Would I just flush and bring it down to goal? Or am I just to feed less next? Still trying to get this ppm stuff, cheers.

U can flush to force the salts out. Or u can water with balanced PH water. a few times (Or however many it takes) until its 650ppm or below :)

Time to switch nutrients? Still vegetative or Pre-flowering?
Now that she is showering her pistils, does this mark the beginning of pre-flowering? Also should I begin the switch from vegetative nutrients to flowering nutrients or keep with the vegetative nutrients until more pistils show?

Ec coming out low
Out of my 4 plants, two I am getting a much lower ec reading out of the bottom then what I am feeding in. Should I kick up the nutrients for these two? Does this mean they are not using the nutrients or they are not eating enough?

Watering question - Volume?
Currently doing my 1st grow and had some watering questions. I see a lot online about when to water which seems pretty easy to understand but I have trouble finding the amount of water. Is it based on the size of the pot? or the size of the plant? or both maybe? How much?

Very old Ata Bloombastic
I own a very old (around 8 years) bottle of Ata Bloombastic. It should not expire, but it looks dark brown and dense (seriously, it looks like liquid s**t but still smells good) but on commercials it appears to be more green than brown. Should I risk it or change it?

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
