My plants in cocoloco starve at 1500. If I fed 1500ppm bottled nutes they would fry and be completely ruined. Its apples and oranges.
Ok I just fed 800ppm and the runoff was 1500ppm when do I feed again? And how much?Whats apples and oranges? Im not comparing bottled ec and soil ec. Just metering it to help know when to feed. Runoff is never accurate anyway. Need to meter every time to see trends.
checking your ppm in run off in soil is pointless and majority of time it confuses everything.Whats apples and oranges? Im not comparing bottled ec and soil ec. Just metering it to help know when to feed. Runoff is never accurate anyway. Need to meter every time to see trends.
he said every 2 days.How often do you water?

@ATLienNewbie don't water every two days and wait until your soil is less wet/moist. Don't worry about your run off and it has nothing to do about when to feed your plant next. At the plants current stage you should be watering to run off. You should give 15 min brakes in between watering and if you do everything correctly you should be watering every 10 days or so. @GNick55 and i agree that you have a zinc issue and you should worry more about that
Why, the plants are growing perfect. I could run 10 gallons through and it will still be 1000ppm or more. Should run 100 gallons through?I would say leach pots with fresh water or a light nutrient solution asap!

With the issue being zinc, I should not worry about adding nutrients or zinc? I should focus on correcting my watering routine which will lead to my plant up taking a sufficient amount of zinc ?checking your ppm in run off in soil is pointless and majority of time it confuses everything.

70-80 degreesImo zink or sulfur... either way it looks like chronic overwatering.
Temps and humidity?
70-80 degrees
Humidity 40-60
I definitely agree with the chronic overwatering. I got a bit lazy and started trying to water on a routine and then...BOOM plants look sad.
