    Suggestions on a decent PH tester?

    The Apera with the replaceable probe. Mine has served me flawlessly for I'm guessing going on two years on the original probe. Using kcl solution for storage isn't optional imo but mandatory. Also, the little probe guard on the tip comes off to make it easier to clean the funk out from time to time.

    3 leaves

    J Just saw the 9k ppm entry. Yikes. What was your ppm after flush? And how much water did you have to use? I have found when having to run a lot of water to get acceptable ppm level, plants tend to start showing N deficiency in a week or so. Read somewhere that N releases easiest. May need to...

    3 leaves

    I had one do that. It grew out just fine. Couple or three toppings and you'll have more colas than you can shake a stick at.

    Help, i havent had this happen before

    I'd water to runoff with 6.4-6.5, measuring runoff ph and ppm to get an idea what's going on in the root zone for starters. A friend overfed with the flora trio. Runoff was 2500-3000 if memory serves. Several gallons of flush got it under control (under 1000) and he finally stopped using the...

    Why?

    Ditto on overwatered. Also overfed a tad.

    Help, i havent had this happen before

    Recently had 2 youngsters stopped growing and leaves hanging about a week or 10 days after up pot to 1 gal pots. Did a flush and found ph runoff over 7. Put in 5 gal pots with different mix and they both came back happy and growing again. Usually when I'm stumped I flush very slowly until I get...

    How often do you add nurients to plants

    Consider dr earth dry ferts. Home grown for veg then flower girl mid flower onward. Or toss in a bag of premium gold for transition. Four tbsp top dress every 2 weeks for a 5 gallon container. I've found ordering from walmart about the cheapest. Maybe do 4 lb bags to see if you like. 12 lb bags...

    Organic grow issues

    It's creeping up from lower growth. Hopefully can salvage this one and consider the coir unfavorable going forward.

    Organic grow issues

    At this point maybe upping feed recipe through the end of this run? Since you mentioned the coir factor, last grows were straight happy frog with no issues. Thanks.

    Organic grow issues

    Tried dr earth dry ferts awhile back with great results and now my super sour runts run is sad. 50/50 happy frog/cult nation coco. Media is about 6.3 ph. Last fed 2 days ago at 60 veg/40 bloom. Watering at 6.4-6.5. Feeding every 21 days at 2 tbsp/gal of soil. Currently in week 5 of flower. Went...

    What to do when stem snaps?

    It's a nothing burger. My .02 is it won't faze it at all.

    How much longer

    Trichs are hard to make out too good in the pics but getting close. I've found putting my loupe in front of phone camera gives more detail than either alone.

    Is she ripe enough to chop?

    Agree with above. Another week or two. Probably be fine taking sooner but better to wait.

    Leaf problems

    I currently use dr earth exclusively now but when I was using flora trio I went by a schedule I found online with excellent results. Hwgrow.com. schedule calls for 2 feeds and 1 water to runoff to prevent nute accumulation. Measuring runoff ppm and reading leaves I found that I needed to do 3...
