i get that and thats how i do it when they are bigger but right now it seemed a bit of a waste but i see what ye mean
but ill do that later tonight when the house is quieter so i can focus on the mix and the Ph
 
Right so iv got my new ppm/ec pen, my water from the tap is 175ec and my ppm is 85, do i really need to add calmag?

Ever since iv started adding it im having problems.
 
Im having huge problems at the moment, iv had to run canna flush through them, the run off was 2800 ppm!

I was only putting 4ml to 1L of biobizz biogrow, house and garden root 0.3ml and budwiser at 0.5ml.
 
Full strength for biobizz is 5ml, i switched to advanced nutrients ph perfect a & b put it at 2ml, ph'd water to 5.7, there not bright green for nitrogen toxicity but there cupping over.
 
I have a 6 week OG Kush (as of tomorrow) from 420 sponsor “Growers Choice”. I’ve been growing for about a year or so now and I can’t seem to understand why this plant doesn’t stink. OG that I’ve smoked in the past has been potent. Is it just too early? ( I know pics are helpful but on the mobile web version of this site it’s not allowing me to post from the gallery)

Canna products are the worst and flushing plants with canna flush mid cycle is not a good idea.

I work in ec not ppm but in coco it should be base nute 1.4-1.6ec then additives. (starting water of 0.3ec). Calmag is important in coco growing and thats unlikely the problem.
 
And never ever just follow the bottle recommendations on base nute, always go by ec/ppm
 
Hello @Cultivator thanks for replying again mate, iv gave them canna flush for 2 feedings, the drain off was over 3000, im going to give them some sensi grow a&b now at 2ml or keep it at 650ppm and add house and garden root at 0.3ml now.
 
run off is irrelevant most of the time. ive had run off at 5.0ec with perfectly healthy plants. just feed with a base mix of 1.5 and give plenty run off to correct the coco, add roots excel too.
 
Thanks @Cultivator this is the first time iv had problems, feel a bit disappointed but ill get there a suppose, planning on doing two continues grows so i get a harvest every 4 weeks and i cant be having this happen ever week.
 
2 out of 4 plants are getting more leaf curl and the other 2 are perfect, im now getting tip burn but no bright greeen leaf like N toxicity, ill post another pic soon.
 
I’ve been contemplating whether or not to purchase a “hygrometer” to determine soil wetness. However, I seem to be doing alright based on the “knuckle” rule. Is there any added benefit or value or extra benefit to adding a hygrometer to my tool kit?

I have a question concerning seed companies claim on yields. I have a 4 foot by 4 foot tent and am curious how does that mathematically relate to "400 - 500 gr/m2"
