Hard water calcium build-up. Should be fine unless you want to add filters on your water source.

Correct, just dried out nutrient salts/calcium due to evaporation. Nothing to worry over.

//Harvest timing// Flushing to close to harvest time? Your opinion on my buds matureness.
I just started flushing a couple days ago, i'm about to go into week 8 of flowering. (Royal queen seeds advise 7.5-9week) What is your opinion on right harvest time? 1/4 is behind schedule (different stress training) I'm using BioBizz, see my detailed diary

How much until harvest?
How much time left in your opinion? Tried to make some usable pictures: On some bud leaf the resin is like 40% amber but on other parts it’s like 0%. Shall I wait a week more or two?

Almost ready?
Hi guys, Just started week 8 and buds are growing day by day but I have really low expectations in terms of quantity. As you can see I failed applying LST + some yellow leaves, gave them chelated iron . Please share your thoughts and tell me how long I must wait for the harvest.

Reducing PPM without changing water in hydro
Thanks all for guidance on my previous question. As a follow up, can PPM be lowered by reducing feeding until they hit the right range? Currently 1500ppm but seems this is too high. Currently following the AdvancedNutrients plan.

Should my seedling look like this?
My seedling popped up out of the soil today and the seed was still attached to the smaller purple leaf! I’ve just VERY GENTLY coaxed it off and the seedling looks like this! Is this normal or do I have problems already? 🤦♂️ It’s my first grow so I’m panicking a bit!!

It's Day 20 and Double Grape #1 has begun to flower. Could this be a stress reaction from LST? And does this mean she is doomed to be a low yielder as she hasn't developed cola's or bud sites? Is she now limited in potential?

How many colas can I fit in a 2ftx2ft before crowding becomes an issue?
I will be mainlining my plants to 8-16 mains and I'm trying to decide how many plants I can fit in. I was thinking between 2-4 plants, which would be 16-64 colas in that 2ft x 2ft area.
