Like yourself E.C i do not bother with just use it as makers recommended on the bottle then adjust as i go through the stages.
PH i do not do that either self PH ing nutrient puts it to around 7 so its sweet asa nut to me.
a lot depends on how you grow also your own experience
if you have not done this before
learn to watch your plants they tell you everything
A little less is better than more
same goes with nutrients getting lots of different types generally ends up in confusion and damaged plants
keep it simple goes a long way

Hey there,measuring ec is only necessary when you use mineral nutrients..when you grow organically bio nutrients you can’t measure ec
Ec stands for electrical conductivity and you measure the concentration of mineral and salts in your feeding
So with bio feeds there are no minerals so you don’t have to check it
I hope this was of some use to you
Happy growing and stay safe ✌️

Gorilla Cookies Auto - But Purple?About 2-3 days ago my Fast Buds Gorilla Cookies Plant developed some purple pistol hairs (photo). However Gorilla Cookies shouldn't be a purple plant, except for the leaves? Is this normal, a rare genetic mutation or did I get a wrong seed?

How tall will they grow to be?How tall will these outdoor untrained, soil based photoperiod plants grow to be (best rough guess)?
I believe they're a sativa-dominant Sour strain (either Ultra Sour or S.A.G.E and Sour bag-seed).
Currently over 1 meter tall from soil at 60 days old in 7 Gallon pot.

Fall RecoveryHow is the seedling looking? She took a fall yesterday afternoon and I immediately rescued her as I could and repotted into final 3 gallon fabric pot (actually 5 gallon but only had enough Coco Loco for 3 gallons). Thank you for the read, happy growing and learning. :)

Does too concentrated STS cause inviable pollen? Despite dabking seeing "seeds all over", There were none. someone didn't get the joke. This fem seed run failed. Lower concentrationn gave 1000s, instructed concentration gave 100s, this OD gave zero despite 100% conversion.

Will this tape repair a broken stem?Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?

Plant Topped Itself at 3rd node? Stress or mutation/morphology?This plant split into two shoot apical meristems at 3rd node, I think? Is this due to stress, or a plant morphology/mutation? Pic 1 = weeks before pic 2. Pic 2 = 3rd node & 2 stems. Pic 3 = strain name.

New growth looking strange and growth slowed down (wilting?)The new growth of my plants are looking a bit strange, and growth seems to be slowed down.
Could this be that the light is too strong? Or can this happen if the humidity is too low?
I already installed an humidifier but looks like its not helping.
Whats going on?

Why dont my plants grow towards the middle/light and instead concentrate near the walls?Looks like my plants are growing towards the wall and not towards the middle where the light should be the best.
Why do the plants behave like that and what should I do?
Raise the net, rotate some of the plants, then redo the net?
Remove the net completely?
leave it as it is?
