You’ll need to make a slurry of your media (soil) and water. I don’t grow in dirt perhaps someone who does can explain better.

Test the ph

To confirm my well water comes out at ph of 8 and an ec of .4. I’m using bubble buckets I flushed the media and plant root with sledgehammer/water mix. I then put the plants in plain water ph balanced to 6.0, and verified ec at .37 with no nutrients. I just want to watch my ph for a day or...

What’s your ec for veg and flower? Are u using bubble buckets?

I posted this in the wrong thread. Thanks for everyone’s input: my list Verify well water ec. That’s important I need to really understand what my starting point is. I ordered some cal/mag and another drop style ph test system. I use a Hanna pen that does ph and ec, I recalibrate often, but...

FYI I have a lot of “quality” experience so I understand how to eliminate any variables. My cleaning is/was an issue, the net pots and buckets I cleaned from my one grow had some build up. I didn’t sanitize my air stones or lines cause they sat dry for a couple months. I think my main problem...

Thanks for everyone’s input: my list Verify well water ec. That’s important I need to really understand what my starting point is. I ordered some cal/mag and another drop style ph test system. I use a Hanna pen that does ph and ec, I recalibrate often, but have had issues with it in the...

My water comes out at a ph of 8 so what kind of buffer would you recommend. I assume from the rocks around this area are all iron stained, we should have plenty of iron in the water but I’ve never tested it. I’m leaning towards bacteria and that’s why I was thinking flush. I just washed all...

I think I am going to flush them with sledgehammer and try ph balanced well water and see how they handle it. I also need to clean better between grows. Flushing it all with h2o2 water and scrubbing the salts off.

I’m thinking I need to flush these plants and maybe just give them a bucket of water. I haven’t done a flush since I transferred them.

I use fox farm grow big and big bloom to about 1700-1800 ppm on the 700ppm setting. I plan on changing that to decimal ec in the future. I add per package directions usually getting ec to 1700-1800 ppm. And I would add some fox farm root drench and microbrew at the levels listed. what’s ec...

Hydro bubble buckets

I’m one my second grow, I have two 18” plants each in there own 3.5 gal bubble bucket with 400 watt mh lamps. These plants are about a month old and ph drops like mad after a day. I just refreshed the water with ph 6.0 yesterday checked this am and it 5.2 and tomorrow it will 4.5. my well...
