Runoff PPM's are higher and Ph numbers are lower than what I've been adding when I water-When I watered each of the plants with Ph balanced water only the runoffs for each plant were about 30% higher ppm than I put in on the previous watering with nutes (see numbers above). The plants look very healthy. Should I be concerned with this and if so why?Week 9

DWC water change or NOT?DWC - The DWC smells good, there are no signs of rot or foul smells - I use 3% H202. I keep the temps under 22. The plants are doing great. Should I just add in my flowering nutrients and let it keep running, or should I disinfect and do a full change? Thanks in advance!Week 3

When to introduce nutrients to coco / perlite and how to water seedling?Hi!! I am doing my first ever grow. When should I introduce nutrients to my plants in coco? They have just sprouted and I was only giving them some water with H2O2 at a PH of 6.2.
For a seedling, do I need to water until I get runoff?
Thank you!Feeding. Other

How much does the fox farm trio affect pH and how much pH up (or down) would be needed for correct pH of a 7.0 gallon water.Anybody here grow outdoors in soil and use fox farm products? I was wondering if someone could approximate how much 2tbsp big bloom, 2 grow big, 1 tiger bloom would lower a neutral 7.0 gallon of water. I have drops but it's hard to see after adding bb. No meter. No money 4 one.Week 22

Calculating Proper Runoff NumbersBefore I watered plants today the Ph was 6.0 and 1,000 ppm. I added nutrient solution of 6.2 and 1,000 ppm to each plant until runoff. Runoffs were 1,300 to 1,700 range. Ph was 5.9. Is this in the ballpark. If I add 1,000 ppm to existing 1,000 ppm and get less is that right?Week 10

Coco grow: the EC of my runoff is consistently 0.2 mS/cm lower as what goes in (1.1 in at this time, runoff is at 0.9). Also, PH of runoff is at 5.8, while 6,5 goes in. Is this a problem? What causes this? Its been 8 days since germination and they look healthy.Feeding. Chemical composition

When to water after repotting in coir/pebble mix?Repotted yesterday, gave them half strength nutrients. Took about 700-800ml before run off appeared. I presume from what I’ve read to wait until they definitely need watering again to give the roots a chance? 60/40 coir pebble mix. I’m guessing bring the nutrients up gradually?Feeding. Other

Mix Dynomyco in water?I’m about to water my plant today. I haven’t used any Dynomyco since she’s been transplanted in this 5 gallon fabric pot.
Can I mix in some Dynomyco in my water and apply it like that or should I just top dress a little and then just water the medium? Happy growing!Week 5

Adding DWC nutrients during the week?I flush & add nutrients once per week, and I can't seem to find specific info on adding additional nutrients during the week. Say I start with my basic ratio for the week, and by mid-week, the water is lower. Do I use the same ratio for 1 more gallon or just one specific nute?Feeding. Other
