Not soil, rockwool cube.Maybe your meter is just measuring a lot of sediment in the runoff, I mean after all you are running the water thru soil and it's going to come out with lots of turbidity. The pen is telling you dissolved solids level not just nutrient load. I wouldn't worry just keep going with your planned flush.

How much runoff you getting per feed? You’d think rockwool would be easy to flush, you in slabs? Croutons? Could try something like slf-100 or yucca to help breakup saltsI’ve been flushing my plant for the last five days with regular pH to water. This morning I gave it a good soaking all around the rock wool and just for shits I tested the PPM’s on my runoff water. It was over 2000 ppm’s. Do I need to keep flushing until there is virtually nothing in my run off? This plant is ready to be harvested but I do not want to take it before I give it a good Flushing
I bought some cleaning solution for flushing the salts. It said to use the last couple days before harvest. Im going to use that. Maybe I am being overly cautious but I just want to do it right. I’ll give it a good watering today and see with the runout PPM‘s are
Interesting problem, you would think it would have washed out of the cubes long ago.I bought some cleaning solution for flushing the salts. It said to use the last couple days before harvest. Im going to use that. Maybe I am being overly cautious but I just want to do it right. I’ll give it a good watering today and see with the runout PPM‘s are
Ive ran ro water thru brand new sunshine #4 and the ppm was so high my bluelab wudnt even read it. I personally put no stock in runoff ppm
:drunk2: y scrog a male?Your seed is doing good! Got it tied down and im gonna make a scrog net for it. Hopefully its a male.
Lol. I meant FEmale!!!:drunk2: y scrog a male?
Why scrog a plant that hasnt been sexed yet?:drunk2: y scrog a male?
Practice. New grower here and i want to do this for the knowledge. I don’t have feminized seeds so I’m going to do the best I can until I throw it into the flowering stage.Why scrog a plant that hasnt been sexed yet?
I’m figuring with the time middle take me to clone and then try to figure out the sex of the clone I will be flipping the lights anyway so I’m just going to go with what I have and next girl I’m going to buy all feminized seedsWhen the plant gets a little bigger take a few clones and then force them into flower and the clones will let you know the answer. Takes a few weeks though. That hybrid you have I know real well:) You can tell the sex often by the leaf structure. You and I are the only ones on the planet with these genetics so it can be quite an adventure. The girls will typically produce giant leaves early on (once their finished making the early 3 fingered leaves). In the second or third week you will often see 9 leaflet and even 11 leaflet fans. Also the main fans will have wide leaflets and will be very fat overall. They will sprout and seem small and then every day you look at the plant you'll think the fans grew 2 inches a day.
The boys are more spindly (trunks and stems) and the leaves are narrow and more sativa like. Internodal on the boys is also more sativa like. I have consistently seen this over and over.
Also, in hydro the trunks on the girls will often be 2X in diameter to the boys. The girls also develop these occasional roots that look like main tap roots even though clones never technically have taps. These tap like roots can be as big around as a pencil or even twice the diameter of a pencil.
Watch for these characteristics and see if you can correctly guess the sex before the pre-flowers......Right now its like "What's That? It's Pat?" Oh yeah and this strain shows sex pretty early in veg.
