Is my EC ok for plain water?
Faegrows
started grow question 4y ago
Stupid question but the EC on my meter is it 0.3 or 3.7? I never really minded the EC just ppm as I grow in canna Coco plus but now I'm wondering if the EC is actually right. PH is usually 6.3-6.4.

It means your ppm is about 185ppm 0.37. 500ppm is 1.0 ec. 1000ppm is 2.0 ec Take your ppm and double it. This is the hanna reading.

So it’s not bad for tap water.. anything above .4 EC would be worrisome to me. And yours is .37

Do you know Flora Kleen? I'd like to flush my roots watering with water (6.5 pH) for two weeks instead of flooding my pots. What do you think about? If you know this product, how should I use it? I will put the plants in18l pots for flowering, thanks to everyone ciao 🤠

Is my Amnesia overwatered?
I've been watering until completely dry with this Amnesia, but the leaves look a bit droopy. I've looked at other diaries of this strain and it looks normal but I was curious if anyone thinks I should pull back on watering even further.

Moldy molasses okay for compost tea/compost tea storage
The new container of molasses I bought has mold growing in it. For baking that would be a throw away, but I am curious if that is still usable for making teas. I have seen some soils that add tricoderma and others, just curious? Also can a tea be stored for a week after brewing?

EC in 1200/EC out 596?
I continue to raise the EC to as high as 1200. But the runoff EC is around 590. Am I to up the input to 1400 now to compensate? Seems extreme. The plants are doing well other than slowness.

PH concern
I've been measuring my nutrients solution PH and it's between 6 and 6.5, but after a couple of days my soul is up to 8. Is this normal? I don't want to overwater trying to take ph down, nor do I want to kill microfungi with acid. Any suggestions?
