Mine gets yellow/orange once in a while - I attribute it to the amount of iron in my water... nothing to worry about!

It's normal, with the soil and nutrients it starts taking on that color!

You can start applying a little bit of fertilizer to the plant; it needs nutrition.

Watering in Super CoCo
Hey there fellow growers! So I’ve been trying to figure out the best watering schedule and volume 🧐I’ve been told to always water with runoff, go by weight, top inch dry, etc. I guess my main question is runoff necessary when watering in Super CoCo? All advice appreciated!🌱

Crazy PH drop and High EC
So I mixed a ½ gal solution but adjusted it by adding water to ⅔ gal to bring down the initial EC/ppm testing at around 1400/700. I ph to 5.8 and fed, the runoff was shy of 20% testing at PH 2.65 EC 3940 ppm 1970 Why and how to fix?

Substrate
Planted sprouted autoflower bean in Fox Ocean mixed with indoor organic soil and added DR Earth herb and veg fertilizer to the mix. Is this considered living soil and enough nutrients to grow to harvest without additional fertilizing? If I need to fertilize, how much do I use?
