Compost tea is the key!! Buy a bubbler, a cheap one, and put organic things on water and let it bubble for 24h. Banana skins are great!! Without bubbles you may dry it and grind to put around 5cm top soil. Eggs on oven become Calcium carbonate, great too. Any fruit skin is rich in nutrients, just dry and use. Also, my favorite is beet, grind it and let on water, will become a strong purple water. Bones on oven are great for phosphorous too.

High ppm in drainage I flushed coco two times with 8-10 litres with CalMag (200 ppm) and it does not help. You can see in my comments to the last weeks of the diary that it doesn't matter how much ppm I water the plant, it is always 2-3 times more ppm in drainage.What should I do?

Would this affect my yield? Thx

Plain water between a few feeds? Smaller doses? (To prevent nutrient burn)So I was wondering (medium is light-mix from Plagron): I've been feeding a full dose of nutes every watering up until now. Would ya'll recommend giving plain water in between every few feeds, or dosing down to be cautious? I don't want to be too late... That happened last grow.
