PH Tanking in Late Flower

Hydronaut
Hydronautstarted grow question 2 years ago
6 days ago, 350ppm constant but PH starting dropping hard. Did nutrient change and things stabilized for a bit at 250ppm. Yesterday, same thing occurring with PPM/PH. Roots are fine, PPM now at 200. Is she being underfed now at this stage of flower? Lower PPM more? Start flush?

hey there OuterBanks, you're alright all the way up to 400-600 PPM, but if it aint broke dont fix it (and double check your ppm meter is not broken and correctly calibrated) . My advice is dont be like these noobs that " flush " in hydro , you dont need to flush more than a day before the chop, that's actually one of the reasons why i like it : you get real precise with the flush . Hope this helps ! 🚀

Hi mate. I find in mid to late flower in hydro you get a ph drop. I ph up to 6.3 when this happens and let it drop to 5.8 then ph up to 6.3. This usually stabilise after a few days. If you ppm is dropping then your plant is hungry and wants more food.

I think she is fine and you really don’t have to freak out. The ppm really doesn’t matter at this point because your pistols have popped out to where it’s early enough to fix A problem like a minor issue. I’m saying that because there about to swell up and the only thing there really interested in at this moment are the potassium and magnesium based off of how many pistols are present in your pics. If she is yellowing off before flush that’s even better because that means she’s only taking what she needs anyways before harvest and the rest just stays in the dirt. You could even get away with using just plain Distilled water until harvest with the ph Adjusted at 6.2-6.9 And it’ll only eat what it needs. Kind of like a super soil That only needs flushed out the last week. Good luck And nice flowers
