Бро, в твоём случае по фотографии растение показывает явный дефицит магния, попробуй использовать листовую подкормку с сагнием, например раствор сульфат магния. Или используй calmag. Ph тут не причем

In my experience with FFHF, my water had to be as close to 6.7 as possible. Always had low ph on runoff. But they usually didn't have any issues.

Nutes mixing order??
I’ve just read that you have to add calmag before the micros. I wasn’t aware of this specific order. My plants have been struggling, is there a chance that because I’ve been adding calmag as the last before pH, this is the cause of my issues?? What other problems can this cause?

Feeding the plant a little honey?
I read that honey is used by certain growers to sweeten the buds. They dilute it in some ph water. I have nothing that sweetens the buds nute wise. Anyone experience with this? I kinda wanna give it a go.

Should you flush between veg and flower?
Should you flush between veg and flower? My friend said something about flushing my white widow auto since it just started flowering but I really haven't used a lot of nutrients on her at all so idk if it would make a difference or if it's even necessary.

Runoff PPM's are higher and Ph numbers are lower than what I've been adding when I water-
When I watered each of the plants with Ph balanced water only the runoffs for each plant were about 30% higher ppm than I put in on the previous watering with nutes (see numbers above). The plants look very healthy. Should I be concerned with this and if so why?

Should I add nutes? If so, with my Fox Farm soil, how early should I be adding said nutes? Fox Farm seems to say everything i need is already in the soil..
My 5 gal cloth pots are layered with approx 1/3 Cali Super Soil (bottom) and 2/3 Fox Farm Ocean Forest (top). I assume when the roots reach the super soil all nutes will be supplied. But what happens until then? Should i provide nutes until they reach the SS and if so what kind?

Michor Riza
Hi, growmates! I've got a small trouble: forgot to put 'Michor Riza' under the siblings roots. Any tips how to fix this? Mb I can put MR spores in water? Or putting it in when I'll do transplantation (from 8l. to 15) will do the job?

Thoughts on adding GH FloraBloom 0-5-4
1st time grower here- Good idea to add this nute to my almost 4 week old autoflower top-down? I'm using a wicking tub with ocean forest potting mix, that has a layer of fertilizer more rich in nitrogen. They seem happy, would hate to overdo it. Haven't watered them in 2 weeks.

Will excessively aerating and circulation change the PH?
I have a reservoir which holds my nutrients until they need to be used. Recently I had added in a pump for circulation in addition to my air stone. Since then my solution has been rising to over 7 within a few hours. I adjust back down and it goes back up again? What the heck?

Orange leaves getting worse
What the fuck is going on with this plant? I spotted some nute burn last week so I got advice off here and flushed it out. Once it needed watered again I went with half the recommended nute dosage and now it looks like it’s getting worse. What the hell can I do?
