Yes getting a ph meter is very helpful. I would recommend staying away from the really cheap ones. You get what you pay for rings true.

Unser erster Grow! Wir haben Nährstoffbrand, wie schlimm? Was können wir noch tun? - Dünger: Canna Terra Vega - Erde: COMPO SANA Qualitäts Eerde - 50%
Vor genau einer Woche haben wir einen Nährstoffbrand festgestellt. Die Symptome waren zunächst eher schwach, mit einzelnen, gelb hängenden Spitzen. Nun sieht es so aus wie auf den Bildern. Haben bereits im nächsten Guss ohne Dünger mit ph 6,3 Wasser gegossen. Was noch tun?

Dry power vs Liquid fertilizer
Do dry fertilizers (like the powders you mix with your soil and topdress) give as good of a result as liquids? And I will be doing my first grow this year outside in the ground (not in a pot) do you recomend powder or liquid? And if so what powder fertilizer do you recomend?

1841PPM
So is an 1841ppm solution ok for a plant? I figured since it's in Flowering it should be an OK input, normally my ppm readings are 1240ppmish

When do I stop giving Nutrients?
I know that i want to stop giving nutrients roughly 2 weeks before harvest, but its my first grow and i dont have the expertise to know when that point will be. So maybe someone experienced can tell me when to roughly stop giving nutrients. This is like Day 35 of Flowering.
