Hi mate, absolutely nothing. Checking run off from soil is a little OTT. Soil is a great buffer and as long as you're putting in 6-6.5 you should be fine. Goog luck and happy growing

Couldn't agree more to Braveheart, but I'd rise pH to at least 6.2 when growing in Soil. Good luck for the rest of the way.. Servus✌️

PH rising fast in DWC system
Hello guys, I'm trying for first time a DWC hydro and I have a problem with PH rising fast. I set the PH in 5.5/.8 and after 2/3 hours it is on 7.5. After some tests I saw that the air pump is rising the PH up, and I have no idea how to resolve it. Can you help me?

I got these "feminized" seeds of Jack Herer auto from ILGM and looks like a fncking stack of nut sacks to me! No hermie, but straight up male reproductive organs! This taken with a 30× magnification LED lense! Not a happy grower!

Why did it go hermie ?
What must have caused the hermie ? 1: ph of the soil was 4 now flushing 2: broke the stems cause it was growing into light Will it cause the flowering to stunt ?

Who f'd who?
How did one my girls get knocked up? I had 4 feminized plants in a tent together in this grow. The HS is fine but the BT I pulled has a localized area that went to seed. Maybe 5 buds after checking the whole harvest. Any idea how this happened and who is the daddy?

Is power-usage data a reliable way to monitor the condition of a HPS light globe?
Noticed a fading trend on the 600 Hps power graph. The highest usage the globe was new, the usage since lessens a small amount most days. Is that a reliable method to monitor the condition of a light globe? Is the gradually-reducing power usage due to globe degrading? Cheers :)

RO water flush
So finally got RO system and wanted to know if the plants can be flushed with it for a little before I have to add the cal mag and nutrients back, or do I still need to add the cal mag to the water for the flush. I have florakeen but I think I'd have to restart fresh again?

Verständnisfrage
Warum sollte man bei einer Indica Genetik auf amber Trichome warten um körperliche Effekte zu erzielen? Ist das nicht genau der genetische Unterschied zwischen Indica und Sativa? Bekomme ich denn umgedreht bei Sativa auch körperliche Effekte, wenn die Trichome amber werden?

Motion-sensor lights causing accidental gas lantern effect?
What effect will outdoor motion-sensor lights have on a plant if they turn on periodically during the night? Could this be stunting the plant (it seems short for 1 month)? Preventing flowering? This is likely just for a few minutes at a time whenever an animal walks by. Thanks

Could this be from cat piss? The litter box was full, i forgot and there was a weird smell coming from the pot but unrecognizable.
Yellowing tips, is it something i won't have to worry about or should i give some fix or flush it... any advice is welcome, she always had a little bit bent tips and a microscopic yellow point, but now all of a sudden its getting very bad very fast. Is it possible the cat pissed?

Flushing timing
How many weeks do u think flowering before flushing? I want to flush for at least 2-3 weeks. When I did my purple lemonade and one of my lemon pie auto’s and you get a nice fade. It’s hard to know when to stop nutes and start plain water. I was thinking 3 weeks nutes + 2 water.
