Runoff 6.4 what’s ex?
EC or ppm. It’s a way to measure the dissolved solids in your water. (Very unscientific version). You need tools to test this stuff you’re putting in. Testing runoff is debatable (although I do it) to make sure what you’re putting and what’s coming out isn’t too far out of whack.

Oh okay I test the runoff with my ph meter it’s usually just 1 up from what the ph is when I water

Pistils will indicate sex and “ sexual maturity “ , auto will begin to stretch and “ preflower “.
Just let it do its thing.

Do not introduce Bloom nutes too early. I usually begin bloom nutes AFTER stretch ( about week 2 of flower ) since plant will now focus on flowering buds.
I’ve just entered flowering rn bro not an auto flower. I flipped it I think Monday this week. Ur saying I should wait a bit before giving it bloom nutes? I haven’t started yet but need to purchase a small thing of bloom nutes any recommendations? I don’t need a big bottle since I just have one going Rn.

Since your runoff values are almost the same as your input than you should feed next watering (in case that everthing is right) unless your runoff is just input water drained between pot and rootbal, than it tells you nothing... There is probably no sense of checking your runoff untill you see that something is not right, than your runoff and general plant appearance gives you much more better clue about whole situation (if you can not figure it out by your growing exeperiences first). Sometimes its helpful when you can eliminate your medium as a source of your issues but it still have to be measured “objectively”. When you grow bio or using dry amendments than the runoff is not so useful but when you run let say promix or similar soil with bottled nutes than your runoff is your best friend...

It's female from what I see. Look for yellow cocks or green balls stacking around and then you know its a male or hermie.

I quit growing Autos. I like being able to keep growing my favorite plants and don't want to have an AutoFlower where every time I grow its a new plant phenotype.
