Highly unlikely.........no need to flush. Kelp can be used at any time without fear. What makes you think there is a zinc deficiency?? Certainly not showing any symptoms of zinc deficiency.

The only reason you would flush is if you knew that a lockout had occured to give you a deficiency... for example, if you had a nitrogen toxicity which had locked out calcium, you would flush. Not sure how or why you've determined that you have a zinc deficiency (pretty rare) but I would advise you NOT to flush and to simply add the kelp if that's your chosen solution to the problem you've identified. Good luck...

pH very low (5.0) but plants seem to appreciate it!!The pH of the reservoir is lower than the perfect range (5.0) during flowering stage for almost 2 weeks but plants don't seem to suffer. They are growing very fast. Should I change it or leave it if they seem good?

Late Stage Nutrient Issues?As the plants near the end (last two weeks) should I expect to lose virtually all the larger/medium fan leaves as the plants drain them of nutrients or is that a sign of overall nutrient deficiency?

Is she looking healthy? Day 4 after being planted. I apologise for the frequent questions but as this is my only seed I’m very paranoid. Haven’t been able to use the sun much as it’s been hiding behind those pesky clouds 😞 so LEDs mostly.

Calcium Deficiency from P Tox?Does this look like Calcium deficiency? This is from the mother actually, she is flowering for seeds. I’m pretty sure last feed was too heavy on the phosphate and not enough calcium. I just want y’all’s opinion in case I am missing something. It’s the brown spots I’m referring to

Rusty Leaves 3 upper fan leaves have "rusty" brown spots on the upper side. Hard to spot, hard to capture on camera. I also have slight "clawing" on many of the upper leaves. Mg/Ca lockout because of nitrogen toxicity possible? Doesn´t seem to be fungi, as there are no spores to rub off.

Should I wait for deficiencies to introduce more nutrients? I haven't given these plants any of the A.N. veg nutrients that I have for them. We are at week four today. Maybe there are deficiencies that someone could point out to me from my photos?

Calcium in tap water Is 95mg/L calcium too much in tap water? (It's probably a little lower than that, since that's exit measurement from the waterworks.) I haven't seen any signs of acute calcium toxicity, but I'm worried about buildup.
