Also im using R/O so do the plants need any extra cal/mag added?
Leave the Cal mag out!!! Your soil should have plenty of mag and nectar obviously covers the calcium. Once you start feeds w/ Demeters you should be covered. Bubba runs RO so he might have a tip or two....sometimes pheno can be mag hungry but there is other alternatives to hydro calmag.

Hahaha no i didnt mean cal/mag the salt nutrients. I meant like demeters or something i read in the bible if you use ro you should use more dd for the cal/mag. No salts over here only nectar approved!!

Transplants done and slurries are in not good lol! The droopy plants are at low ph so must be locked out. Ppms are 650-750 and ph is at about 5.9-6.0. What should i water the ph at. will just Olympus up make it ok to test for accurate readings with my ro water?

Was that slurry from the soil in the solo cup or the new soil you potted into?

The zero ppm is the problem test the RO waters ph......Oly would put ppms in the water but it would sky rocket the ph big time. Have you watered in your transplants yet?

What kind of soil are you transplanting into?

Those numbers aren't that bad, getting them into fresh soil will buffer them back, they will use up the ppms pretty quick as the roots move into the fresh soil. And I would just water them in with some HERC & oly at 6.6/6.7ish. If you need to work a soil ph in any direction, up or down, you want to double the points you need to over shoot but cap it out at 7.0 for pulling up and 6.0 for dropping. So your at 6.0 and she stopped eating a little, the Herc will balance out the high ppms and the Oly will start to pull up the ph....want to be around 6.3/6.4 so hit them with 6.6/6.7 and your golden.....they should perk back up pretty quick.

Transplanting to #4 soil same soil they were in. I slurried each bag and they avg at 6.5ph and 250 ppm.

The will balance out in the new soil, just water in the Herc & Oly about the same amount you were running into the solo cups but just around edge where the new soil meets the old and since I know its #4 you can ph the Herc&Oly to 6.4/6.5 and spark the engine back up. As long as you don't overwater, you can prolly drench Dr. Root w/ some fulpower tomorrow.
