And the ppm that is going in is at 400 ppmSo I decided to use promix HP for the first time and been having I problem with it since I got it! I been having pH issues and ppm issues now I just fix my pH to final hit a 6.0 as in the beginning where the runoff it was at 5.2 to 5.4 .now I check the runoff on the ppm its at 1900 ppm plus. So does the ppm on the runoff matter? Or should I flush again or feed it?
4 years and second indoor runI only know about ppm from what I've read around the forums , so let's hope some one experienced stops in.
But if my memory serves me right , runoff ppm has different ranges for different nutrient lines, and isn't promix hp pretty much free of nutrients? What have you added?
But if you want help, use this template for the most results.
Soil Growers:
1. Are you growing from seed or clones?
2. How old are your plants?
3. How tall are your plants?
4. What size containers are theyplanted in?
5. What is your soil mix?
6. How often do you water and what type of water do you use?
7. What is the pH of your water?
8. What kind of fertilizer do you use andwhat is its NPK ratio?
9. Do you foliar feed or spray your plantswith anything?
10. What kind of lights do you use and how many watts combined? (HPS, MH, fluorescent, halogen, incandescent "plant lights")
11. How close are your lights to the plants?
12. What size is your grow space in square feet?
13. What is the temperature and humidity in your grow space?
14. What is the pH of the soil?
15. Have you noticed any insect activity in your grow space?
16. How much experience do you have growing?
Hydro Growers:
1. Are you growing from seed or clones? clones

Whoa. To me that says that your medium is loaded with salts. I would flush, but I don't like "hard" flushes, I prefer a "soft" flush and for me that would be using VERY LOW amounts of something like a kelp product, or another one I like is Fox Farms Big Bloom (very low amounts!) to flush. Did I mention to use very low amounts? You don't want plain water, that can be a bit of a shock and possibly cause stress to the plant. Which you don't ever mention, just the numbers. How's the plant looking?And the ppm that is going in is at 400 ppm
Dont worry about the PPM coming out of the bag, it wont affect anything.
Top dress with dolomite lime and your PH will never go above 7.0 or add dolomite lime till you reach 6.5 in runoff.
