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.

Proper feeding question
Quick question. How do you outdoor growers feed. Ex.g, Say I feed a gallon of mixed PHed nutes to my crop. Do you water as well? What if the soil is already wet like from a rain? If so before or after the nutes? I've looked online EVERYWHERE and cannot find an answer. Thank

Help. Will she fatten up or is she done?
She's 8 week auto Blueberry. Small genetics at only 60cm fully grown. She's still developing at the bottom but pistils are turning brown. I want to get her to fatten up a bit more before harvest. Harvest time states around 10 weeks. How can I get her bigger buds? Is she ok?

Ec coming out low
Out of my 4 plants, two I am getting a much lower ec reading out of the bottom then what I am feeding in. Should I kick up the nutrients for these two? Does this mean they are not using the nutrients or they are not eating enough?

soil is 6.5 and my water is 6.5 but the run off is in the 4s.
Hi all. I’m confused. My soil is 6.5 and my water is 6.5 but the run off is in the 4s. The plants aren’t liking this so what’s going on? My feed is easy boost by RWS, you mix with the soil and it feeds for the duration. Any ideas where this could be going wrong? Thanks

Did I give too much fertilizer??
So I decided to add in some soluble fertilizers. I gave it a 1/4 tsp (50% of recommended dosage) a couple days ago and noticed some yellowing of new growth on the bud sites. Is this a sign of excess potassium and phosphorus? I gave it Fox Farm Open Sesame (5-45-19).

Foliar spray in DWC
Can you use a foliar spray made from organics (fulvic and humid acid, potash, sea kelp, wetting agent) in a DWC? Or is using any organic material more trouble than it's worth? Is week 3 too early for foliar spraying? Hoping to green my thumb a bit. Thanks
