I transplanted my plant with 50/50 Happy frog and ocean forest. About 2 weeks ago. My ppm that came out of the first plant was 3618 and the ph was 5.3. However keep In mind I don’t think the vivosun one I own is very correct. I am waiting on the apera ph meter. The ppm of the second plant came out at 3336 and the ph was 5.36. I’ve heard that fox farm soil runs high ppms because it hold enough nutrients for 4-6 weeks. However with the new transplant I’m a little confused on when to give them nutes. ![IMG_6440](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/c/9/0/c90b6bdedd5a057fd6dd757863c5b1aa2742c233.jpeg) ![IMG_6439](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/f/3/d/f3d24d68a0d7edaf1da66ac09e975dd55265702f.jpeg) ![IMG_6442](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/7/5/5/755e35d7113b8c4d3fee07541fd40ba3f653385c.jpeg) ![IMG_6443](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/7/d/e/7dec2f523145530a565cdf4c11085fe8beacd1b8.jpeg) Here are some pictures for some reference. Once I get my apera meter I’ll start adjusting my ph but other than that a complete newbie and this is my first grow! ---

Not from what I see! Spacing is good. Leaves aren’t fried. Just don’t overwater and you’re golden. ---

Soil would respond better, if full wet watering was done. Comparable’s got the earlier full water and responded well (better than measured). Intentionally, I have been monitoring as weekly soil change is recorded. Numbers were higher but are responding well to adjusting, slowly. Nutes not required until number under 1300. Most important is the PH, then Nutes. Apera’s are great.
