i have about 3 weeks to go before my plants are done in flower and i currently only have enough nutrients for one more res change happening as of tomorrow and i don't have $$ to buy for for a month

growing dwc single bucket. i top up 80% of my res per week so it must be changed. in all my past grows i run just water for 5 days then pull

what will happen if i run just water for the next 2 maybe 3 weeks. she has some stored nutrients in the shade leaves but not enough to leach for 3 weeks

if shes just going to stop maturing should i just pull pull and start veging my clones for the next run. by time they are ready to flip ill have bloon nutes again

You are WAY better off just running water the last little while then cutting 3 weeks early :facepalm. Do your last res change and then just keep it topped off with ph'd water until the plants finish growing. Cutting plants early should only be done in the absolute most necessary cases, like serious mold, or bug issues, or something else catastrophic to the plant. Cutting early greatly reduces yields, as well as quality of flavor, smell and high.

If it were me; I'd go with just water before I'd pull early.

Go to your local grow store and tell them you don't have money to buy nutes and ask if they have a sample to get you by till you get paid. Any good store will have no issue

i prefer ordering online. its not yet allowed here. im sure a good sore would help a fellow grower though

Search "free samples" most nute companies send them for a couple dollars shipping
