    Why is runoff EC spiking?

    Yikes. Only 3 times a day? I used to run Toro irrigation timers that would do at least 6 and then you can do like 4 separate programs with 6 each. My $16 nearpow timer will do 20 😂 and I love these little things. My system just watered for the first time today all the way to field capacity from...

    2.8-3.1 input. Floraflex nutes, Aptus and elite 91 additives.

    Why is runoff EC spiking?

    $500 well spent. I bought the sensor vs the troll master controller and just use cheap nearpow timers.

    Just the sensor. Not the automation software.

    Why is runoff EC spiking?

    My bad. Floraflex has this labeled vegetative. But my dry backs are greater.

    Why is runoff EC spiking?

    The general point is the same but I use the floraflex strategy without runoff. They would like you to irrigate until you get runoff in order to Bring your EC value down every light cycle. This can be wasteful if you’re not on your shit and can be avoided if you are. Since I am watering just to...

    Why is runoff EC spiking?

    It’s currently generative and I’m feeding based off of my plants cycles, not a specific schedule. It’s about every 2-3 hours after field capacity I dry back from 53-54% wc to about 41-42% at around 2.8ec. And I use floraflex nutes and irrigation strategies with aroya monitoring telling me when...

    Why is runoff EC spiking?

    I use an aroya Solus that I linked above. It reads ec and water content and streams via Bluetooth to an app on your phone. It’s a very dope product. here is there YouTube. They have so many videos about crop steering. Maybe some of this will interest you. https://youtube.com/c/AROYA

    Why is runoff EC spiking?

    I have not said you have dry spots. I’m simply stating that water takes the path of least resistance. So if you think of all the media in your pot as being 100% and you’re running water through that pot to flush there is a lot of media to flush out and water will flow where it’s easiest first...

    Why is runoff EC spiking?

    All this looks and sounds good. The one thing I notice now that I’ve seen pictures is you are using “large air-pot” root pruning pots. There’s are amazing when using soil, soilless or peat. They are meant to grow large plants and root prune. The Problem with them is all the holes in the pots on...

    Why is runoff EC spiking?

    1st channeling. It sounds like the rate at which your dripper‘s are dripping may be too fast depending on the pressure output of those dripper‘s. You have two options. 1. You can use your check valve which I also have an also use. The ones I have are floraflex ball valves with handles and...

    Why is runoff EC spiking?

    this isn’t always the case and very often incorrect. Yes higher medium ec means the plants are not eating nutrients at the same frequency and ratio as your feeding. But a spike in ec is not usually the plants doing. Ec spikes are contributed to water content going down faster than nutrient...

    Why is runoff EC spiking?

    Day 8 of flower currently getting dripped on 4 times a day with zero runoff, getting roughly a 15-17% dry back before every irrigation. Temp 82 humidity 68% input EC 2.8 media EC is currently 2.9. As far as the halo drippers I have never used them. But coco has excellent wicking capabilities...

    Why is runoff EC spiking?

    If you are getting an increase in your run off EC and you have 5x a day watering frequency I would recommend verifying your pots water content. Crop steering and water content are great topics to look into. It sounds to me like your getting to large a dry-back during irrigation’s creating...
