Ph question
Newbie87
started grow question 3y ago
When you buy spring water, how can the company say it's a certain pH if temperature affects this ? I'm struggling to understand how temperature affects water so much. Does the heat make ph rise or fall ?

Inversely related. So, temp goes up, pH goes down. increased H+ activity, therefore more hydronium formed on average in any 1 snapshot of time.

Is my PPM level good?
I used my TDS meter for the first time today to test the run off from watering my plants. The Bruce plants will be 3 weeks old on Wednesday. The run off came out to 1140 ppm. That’s still good right? I don’t need to start adding any nutes yet do I?

Plant does not drink nutes500ppm runoff
Why the smallest plant does not drink nutes ? The one in the video that I mention is having 500 ppm run off . What shall I do with the nutrition in order for the growth to explode like the other plants? What else I can add in this case and do I need more light for this amount?

Diamond black vs. Diamond nectar by GHE
Hi everyone, I've read Diamond nectar is very good. But I noticed there is a very similar product from the same brand: diamond black. I was wondering what's the difference, and which one would be the best in an indoor grow in coco with high frequency fertigation. Thanks

wet/dry cycle from RQS
RQS suggested this wet/dry for Auto.that's okay?for irrigation, when he said 1.5 liters for each day, that means I have to water the plants every day? or is it better to have 4.5 water once every 3 days?And that the amount of irrigation he suggested for 11L pot is not too much?

Run-off Results to high?
My first reading (after pouring 6 quarts of water thru the coco medium) was over 4900 PPM. After another 6 qts it read 1995 and after a third round it read 908 PPM. This is my first time doing a run-off test, should the PPM be lower?

PH and temp
Does the temperature of the feed alter the ph. I made some feed a week ago ph 5.9 but had to turn radiator off in the shed because snow kept melting so feed is now 10c in stead of previous 18c but I checked ph the other day and it had gone up to 9.3 can I put feed in tent 4 heat?

Watering
Plants seem to respond oddly to watering…. It’s like they look like they want water, but then when they get it, they act like they don’t want it… super weird. Maybe since I’m new I don’t have the knack for knowing how much to give them ¯_(ツ)_/¯

EC going up daily during the day - Hydro recirculating system
Would anyone have an idea why the ec in my tank goes up every day of the plant, like 7 or 8 hours after the lights are on ? Evaporation ? The plants eat more at this time of the day ? Overfeeding ? Got a small 20L tank and a tight space. Thx !
