Hello

I have been using the drain to waste feeding regiment
I am at week 5 of flower
Yesterday I topped up the reservoir with (per gallon or 4 litres)
5ml micro (1 tsp)
6ml blooom
2.5 ml calmag
2 ml liquid kool bloom
RO water starts at 0 (measured with a blue lab) and gets to 700 PPM and PH without buffering was 5.9

I think it is at the right level. I had the odd leaf with a burnt tip but the rest is looking ok.


for coco do you use the drain to waste or the recirculating ratio of nutes? I do not drain to waste i bottom feed and they drink it all.

I am just curious. I do not want to go overboard and burn them all up. :)

When you are in the couple of final weeks of flower do you reduce the nutrients? I have read you never give them plain water in coco. I have a plant that is going to be ready in the next 2 to 3 weeks. I just want to do it right. :)

I feed straight water with a little Ph down the last 10 to 14 days in coco, it helps the plant use stored chlorophyll as food for the buds and gives a much smoother end product. Ive fed plants all the way to chop in coco and they will choke you and give you a sore throat if you smoke/vape too much.
