TDS
I’m on week 6 today. Is this a good TDS reading or should it be higher/lower? I have the unit set to 500 ppm . I used 5 ml/gallon of tiger bloom, 2 ml/gallon of bud candy & big bud. I also added 1 tbsp of epsom salt to lower the ph in my soil.

Strange spots appearing on dying leaves

Yellowing a bit too soon
During the second week, leaves started to look a little bit yellow. The first true leaves yellowed way too soon. I'm guessing lack of nutrients. It never showed signs of drought or overwater stress. Your thoughts? I planted it into larger 2.5 liter container now.

Hi Legend, Not sure about it. Magnesium, Calcium, Ph. Maybe uptake or loss. She is growing well, big healthy. Ready for a second round of clones. After, I will let her sign in a bigger airy pot. Thank you for any suggestions 🙏

Flushed plant for 36 hours out of fear of Nutrient lock. Not sure what to do now. Love to hear from the experienced folks!
Plant has been slow to grow last 5 days. I thought I was over feeding (puffy dark green leaves, burnt tips) so the last 36 hours I have been feeding RO water and H2O2 to flush. Not sure what to do now as I am looking at her. Love and appreciation for any suggestions!

To Nute or Not?
About to hit two weeks. Growth has been steady, but slow. In lambert's cactus/succ. mix. I want them to be in a bigger pot and different soil, but they seem too little to transfer atm. Do they look like they're starting to lacking nutes? Did suffer some light/heat :(

High TDS and low ph runoff - Lockout? deficiency?
Struggling with some bad soil (beginners mistake). I water with dechlorinated tap water at around ph 7.4 and 400ppm (not feeding yet). But runoff ph is 6 and around 1000 ppm. Am I dealing with a N-lockout? why such a ph difference and high TDS value?

Are those nutrient defficiencies? Which ones?
A plant had interveinal chlorosis on new leaves and then proceeded to show brown patches between veins on middle leaves. Another has coppery brown spots on leaf edges on the middle of the plant. Both were rootbound in living soil (peat/perlite/hummus + ammendments).

Las guachas tienen hambre
Ya hace 4 semanas que dejé de fertilizar pensando que estaba más cerca de la cosecha de lo que realmente estaba. Debería volver a fertilizar con alguno de floración o lo dejo así? Ya más de la mitad de los tricomas están lechosos.

pH is 5.5 but i have nutrients deficiency. Can it be the cold?
One of my plants (in soil) has yellow leaves and brown spots, it is possible that it lacks Ca and Mg, but it's pH is 5.5. I wonder if this nutrient deficiency is caused by cold water (now I'm using it warm and waiting), low temperature or high humidity.

need exact details on making DIY egg shell fert, (how many eggs per how much water, dilute ratios, effective dose etc, using minimal eggs and vinegar.)
How many egg shells do I need to make an effective CAL fert? Are 6 shells soaked in 500ml of water with 1tsp of vinegar enough? What about if I boiled them in plain water? What is the dosage, ratio, and minimum amount of vinegar to use for this process, so it doesn't smell
