measuring ppm runoff in soil can often be tricky , i would buy a bunch of cheap PPM meters (because they break often) and see for yourself, you definitely do get more control if only because you start measuring your inputs aswell. Hope this helps! 🚀

Has anyone ever heard of a strain that gets stuck on Cloudy Trichs? I'm just a few days past the proposed harvest date yet, 1 & 1/2 weeks ago I noticed 10% Trichs turned amber but, all the rest seem stuck on cloudy. 95% of the pistols have turned red, fan leaves are dying/dead

Made the mistake of planting two autos and one photo plant in same box. My thinking was that once the Autos were harvested I’d flip the remaining photo plant to 12/12. Problem is what about the flower nutes for the Autos since photo won’t be ready until flip. Any ideas?

ScrOG / Lollipopping / Defoliation I'm thinking of going for ScrOG for the blooming (which is just starting) – maybe even lollipopping or defoliation. I would love to get some feedback! - What I should bear in mind? - Does my setup look suitable? - When should I start with what? - Any good resources?
