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

Adding DWC nutrients during the week?
I flush & add nutrients once per week, and I can't seem to find specific info on adding additional nutrients during the week. Say I start with my basic ratio for the week, and by mid-week, the water is lower. Do I use the same ratio for 1 more gallon or just one specific nute?

Should you flush between veg and flower?
Should you flush between veg and flower? My friend said something about flushing my white widow auto since it just started flowering but I really haven't used a lot of nutrients on her at all so idk if it would make a difference or if it's even necessary.

I’ve been flushing for 2 weeks. At what TDS runoff level do you harvest the plant?
I’ve been flushing my plant with properly pH’ed water for the last 2 weeks. Today the TDS runoff was 530 ppm. What is the appropriate TDS level to reach BEFORE harvesting the plant? What is a good TDS runoff level to determine if it’s good to harvest or not?

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.

Ph and ec in batmix??
Most of the people here telling me that i should regulate ph and ec when growing in soil (batmix) But on plagron website: Should I adjust the pH and EC values if I grow with Batmix? No, combined with our 100% NATURAL Grow Style you don't have to regulate the pH and EC value

Coco and Worm Castings - Does Total Dissolved Solids Matter?
Does total disolved solids (TDS) matter when growing in coco, worm castings, and organic dry ammendments? Am I at risk of a build up of salts? I have seen 2700 ppm in my current grow, but are these simply not salts and therefore OK? Plants look good happy. TY

Changing water types
Has anyone had problems in going from very soft water to hard water in the flowering stage? I was using bottled water but i started using tap water as i could see that in some other plants i was growing on the side, they grew well on tap water. Do you reckon is safe to change?
