I’m on day 57 with my white widow auto from ILGM. I guess I wasn’t paying enough attention to the run off TDS. Today after watering with just 6.52 pH water my runoff ppm was 2410 ppm. I think it should be more like 1000 to 1600. Plant appears just ok, but growth has slowed . Should I flush this plant to get ppm more in the 1000 to 1600 ppm range or just ride it out till it gets to a more acceptable level. Yes I know I should have noticed it sooner, my bad. Thanks for any advice.
What type of medium are you using.
I use pure coco and I never check my ppms.
One day I decided to check them and were about 1800-2400 ppms.
But I didn’t see any issues with my plants so I just let it ride and everything turned out fine.
But every situation is different.
Fill out a support ticket and more experienced folks will help you out.
Happy growing
Thanks Sincitytoker, FFOF is the medium and like you said I think I’ll just let her ride for now. I didn’t even know about “support tickets” I’ll check it out…thanks again.
