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.

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?

What am I doing wrong? I thought I had a handle on tis.
Can someone tell me what is wrong with my plant? It used to droop badly but I fixed that (underwatering) and the plant looks a lot better. Stalk was weak so I switched to "Veg" (mostly blue light) mode. I also added proper nutrients which are helping even more.

Non assorbe acqua
I'm growing 5 plants, all with the same amount of water, same nutrients, and same light. Only one plant seems not to absorb water. The pot is always wet, yet it grows and doesn't seem to show signs of stress. Should I stop watering it?

Demineralized water to finish
Hey folks! Got a question about giving fresh water to finish. I bought some demineralized water to give them for the last week. The problem being I can't seem to get a reading on ph. I'm assuming because there's no ions in the water . Is this stuff ok to use opposed to distilled?

The pH of the runoff continues to drop below 6.0 with each feed, resulting with me trying to bounce it back every other watering. I would like for the pH to be more stable. Any ideas why this might be happening? I am using Advanced Nutrients pH perfect - Grow, Micro, Bloom.

General questions about my grow
Based on week 5 of my grow, does it sound like I'm on track with nutrients? Any advice on LST or defoliation? The plants struggled since I planted them so I wary of stressing them out. The only thing I'm doing at this point is tucking the leaves so the bud sites get more light.

Runoff PPM
Can't really find a solid simple answer to this question anywhere.. Should my runoff PPM be half of inflow, the same, or something in between? I imagine there's a different answer whether doing feed/feed or feed/water, I'd really appreciate it if someone could map this out a bit
