Thats funny Schmit right there.

Alright i got my watering done, did my homework and now im ready to gain some wisdom. Plain spring water, not cal mag or ph ajustments made. @dbrn32 @Low

Going in


Coming out


This is the yellow ling today. Its kinda staying in tgis corner but its hard to tell if its getting worse.


Lastly and ill leave yall alone lol, what are these balls of white on top of some of the colas? They kinda hurt to look at under the lights cause they are bright white but they dont look like tricombs or pistols to me. Just something ive never noticed before. Thank you fellers for all the help!!

The in and out doesn’t make sense. Unless you are flushing. Then the pH and PPMs don’t really matter.

The white calyxes is a result of light bleaching, however in rare cases it can be genetic.

I wasn’t flushing, i feed/water every other day. Ive gave nutes the last 2 times so this time was just plain water. @dbrn32 said that the meter wouldn’t work correctly if the ppm wasn’t high enough. Atleast i thought thats what he meant… so the 8.5 may not be correct i just tested it for :poop:’s and :laughing:’s lol. The runoff ph was about what it normally is but ppm was alot lower. I feel like im starving her but i cant give nutes more than twice a week according to bottle.

This is correct, your meter will not accurately display ph of water at 10ppm. Rather than use water that low I would’ve found different appropriate water source or added a little so it could at least be accurately tested and set to proper ph. No big deal though, we’ll get the next one.

Your pots are drying out about every other day correct?

Thats was what i was asking about yesterday morning lol. My bad i should have worded it differently.

Yes. To the best of my knowledge, the roots are so bound i cant get my finger in the soil and its pushing up againt the scrog hard enough to bent the wood so checking weight of pot is out :sweat_smile:. The top layer as deep as i can get with my finger is dry every other day but it isnt taking as much water to get to runoff now. Im still giving a full 2 gallons but now im getting runoff after about 6-7 liters. At its peak i was giving close to 10 liters to get a good runoff.

I must of missed something. When I commented about water I thought we were talking distilled/purified/RO and my comment was based off of this post.


My mind is boggled. Generally speaking on water only days low ppm water could be used without any adjustment and it would be fine because it takes on the pH of the medium. I recommended that because the pictures numbers look fine. Got confused when seeing the last set of pics with such low ppm.

Feeding schedules on bottles are usually based on a fertile soil so they recommend the feeding schedule they do. That post looks like you flushed.

If your confused you can only imagine how bad off i am :sweat_smile:. I think my best bet is to pretend whatever happened last night was just a dream and ill feed again tomorrow night.

Those numbers you just now posted were from friday nights feeding. That was the runoff with nutes and calmag. The plain water last night is what has me messed up i think.

The water i use is spring water i get locally, very low ppm. After i added it last night i had runoff ph of 7.3 and ppm was 350.

Im sorry for confusing yall… and me lol.

Yellowing is starting to spread. Do i need to feed heavier when i give nutes or something? @dbrn32

Ease slightly, if above 1000PPM.
They are looking good, but as old age sets in, the old get consumed.

MY ANSWER
GOAL 6.6-6.8 and 750-1200 PPM

7.3 = next watering, use 6.0PH
350 PPM, next feeding use 1200
target acquisition requires " windage and elevation" compensation.
I SWAG it.
Scientific Wild Ass Guess
Good luck to you
Not in contradiction to @LOW, possibly different method (i use soil).
