Ph pens

started grow question 4y ago
Not a question but a PSA. Don't always put all your trust in your pH pen. Mine was reading just over 7. So I lowered it just a bit, but some plants kept getting worse. Checked with pH drops and it was over 8.5 lmao. Damn near killed 2 of my ladies.

Snapped stem will it survive?
I tried bending the stem in a point where it curved upwards, too much tension and it snapped below the 5th node. I immediately poured water, cinnamon, and put something to hold it together. Then replaced with duct tape. Will it survive? It’s been 15hrs and leaves are kinda droopy

Critical Purple Auto in COCO: close to harvest.
Triches still clear, most pistils have ambered. Picked up a digital microscope to check for the cloudy triches coming. Once I hit 50% cloudy, I am thinking of flushing for 4-5 days followed by a day of darkness . Any advice on feeding and flushing in these last couple of weeks?

Normal bud or bud rot?
Is this normal color for critical orange punch or bud rot? Just making sure before harvest on Friday that this isn't rot. Hopefully it's perfectly normal and part of the colours 🤞

Contest
Dear Grower, I'm new to this forum and therefore have some questions about the competition. What do I need to do to qualify for the competition? I already tried to participate in a competition from Mars Hydro because I use their products, but it didn't work out.

When is the best time to take cuttings?
Does it make a difference whether I take them when the plant is still producing paired shoots or should I take the cuttings when it already has alternate shoots? Or does it make no difference at all?

Hello friends. I have a question. About 4 leaves that are blocking the light to the branches under those four leaves. Please see pic: 4 leaves. Can I cut them off? Or will this damage the yield in any way? Please see pic: 2,3,4 to see where those leaves come from. Thank you! Cheers!

Considering when you germinate the seed is drenched in water, Can you water the soil so it is rather damp before you plant the germinated seed? will it promote the growth of the seedling faster?

Super low runoff PH, even after corrective measures being taken. Plant otherwise okay, but probably isn't taking all her nutrients.
My runoff PH has been hitting mid-5s, even after flushing (w/ & w/o additive). Been trying to raise with higher PH water, used 7.25PH water today and the runoff was still 5.56. She looks healthy other than some discoloration in some leaves, so it isn't killing her but.....????

Works?
Does flushing really do anything? 48h dark? Any technique does any difference? If they do please indicate some trustworthy sources, i can't find any experiment with the same strain same light and soil and different methods applied.
