Weekly flushes to reduce EC?
I’m in week 5-6 flower and feeding quite heavily. My hydro shop bloke advised feeding heavy based on the feed chart and then reducing the ec to 1 or less than 1.0 weekly before making changes to the ec based on the chart. Is this plausible?

Coco grow: the EC of my runoff is consistently 0.2 mS/cm lower as what goes in (1.1 in at this time, runoff is at 0.9). Also, PH of runoff is at 5.8, while 6,5 goes in. Is this a problem? What causes this? Its been 8 days since germination and they look healthy.

Outdoor Hempy Bucket fertilizer use?
Added perlite and clay mix to a 10L outdoor hempy bucket, with Skunky Lady on top. Curious about hydroponics fertilizer use outdoors, should it be added early or wait for some growth when the roots hit the reservoir? Seems like it would be wasted if I add it early on....

Should I give them a total flush or just run through a couple extra gallons of pHed water
figured out what I did wrong. I was using the Big Bloom the way that it was prescribed with one tablespoon doing half but with the gow bigI f***** up and used tablespoon instead of teaspoon whereas I would have used a quarter of a teaspoon. I used tablespoon.

Ideal reservoir temp
What is the ideal reservoir water/nutrient temp? I have a 25g reservoir that is outside. I purchased a heater for it, but what is the perfect temp. My tent holds at 68-72 degree Fahrenheit. I’m assuming similar to the ambient tent temp but thought I’d ask.

Question about pH.
My soil pH is 7 right now. Every single plant. I am adding pH down and watering with it. My question is, if you have had to lower your pH in say 5/10 gallon smart pots, how long did it take to correct the pH levels?

Hydro - Ec stable, Ph dropping - Raise EC instead of lowering it ?
I have the feeling that when there's not a lot of nutes, PH drops but it means I have to add EC, not lower it. I noticed this when I fed them with a very low EC. I added more EC and they ate a lot right away. What did you experience ? Has to do with them eating all cal-mag ? THX

Measured EC and burned leaves
I defoliated my plants yesterday and i gave them some plain water (corrected to ph 6,5) …. I took 5 plants which are about to be harvested and measured the EC: it’s between 0,88 Ms and 1,17 Ms…. Quite low but plants aren’t burned that’s strange ! What do you think it’s happening?

PH meter was wrong
So I learned my lesson by not checking the calibration of my PH meter. It was off by .6 and I don’t know for how long. The run off of my plants are right at 6.0. Using FFOF soil. Will it bounce back now that I recalibrated my PH meter or do I need to flush all the plants.

best methods to start with fertilization
advice on how to start fertilizing? I read on some blogs that it’s better to water first with demineralized water and then give some with fertilizers, and on other blogs I also read the opposite (first the water with fertilizers and then the demineralized one). opinions? 🤔
