    Big Nugs Fast in Auto Pots

    This post covers the rest of the flowering phase. 12/21-1/10: followed schedule for my nutes and kept ppms around 800-900. 1/10: I discovered a large salt buildup in the auto pots. The reservoir had good ppms and ph but the tray that pots sit in had same ppm but ph was a whole point higher...

    Can anyone identify this leaf issue?

    this is my big nugs fast in auto pots using AN I just started my third week of flower today. Ppms about 1250 I’m guessing a little less than half strength solution edited to add: sorry for the purple light I don’t mess with it for photos unless I’m trying to highlight a problem.

    Can anyone identify this leaf issue?

    I’ve been using advanced this grow and their nutrient calculator is really heavy. I usually mix 2 gallons at the amounts they call for and then Cut it with straight RO in my reservoir til I hit the ppm I’m shooting for. Keep 1/2 gallon of the mixed stuff to top off and increase ppms as needed...

    Help diagnosing and fixing nutrient problem.

    Ok this is possibly the last question for this thread. I’m using auto-Pots. If you’re not familiar with them they just fill a tray and when the tray is empty it refills from the reservoir. So the nutrient solution never goes back to the reservoir. Once I turn on the system and start bottom...

    it was with a pen. I calibrate it and check it frequently. And it was the same pen I tested solution going in and out. Maybe I just have a pretty heavy buildup and the coco is taking a long time to flush

    so I need some additional help with this one. I did find out my ph from my drainage is also too high. I’ve been flushing for a few days with water with ph of ranging from 5-5.5 and ppms around 200-250. My drainage reading is still ph of 6.6 and ppm around 400-500. What the hell. I thought with...

    There is definitely a salt build up in the grow medium. My ph run off was good but my ppm going in was 220 and the run off was 720. There may still actually be no issue with the plants at this point like many of you said but I am still glad I noticed this now

    Appreciate that but I should have mentioned in my post that I have been watering until I get about that much run off, maybe even a little more

    Help diagnosing and fixing nutrient problem.

    I was wondering about salt build ups because I’ve been top watering for 3 weeks so far with no flush. That’s why I was thinking to flush it a day or two and then go back to the solution with less calimagic as that was the only new variable and idk maybe 800-820 ppm was two high for how young...

    this post covers the seedling stage of the grow. Seed in napkin: 10/12 Seed in coco: 10/14 Last day of seedling stage: 10/31 water/nutrient schedule. (I used RO water that I make at home that ends up having 1 ppm.) Week one: 10/14-10/20: mostly plain water for first 6 days and started nutes at...
