Nice. Get er done sun. If u lived closer I'd come over and give you a hand. So about the flushing. I've been feeding nutes everyday. Whether it's fresh outta the jug or run off, they've been fed everyday. I know they're doing good and don't fix it If it ain't broke, but is that even necessary?

Sure hope you get some rain! It's been blazing hot here too. 33 yesterday... other years by now I have seen snow on the ground. Global warming is the culprit I think, or is it climate change... well one of those buzz words.

That depends on how you want to treat your coco, lots of growers successfully treat it like soil with some pretty good results, but you need much more than 3 gal pots. Your set up to treat it like hydroponics. Low ppm feeding once or twice a day. It's faster than if you were to treat it like soil. In smaller tent/room style growing use coco like hydro. If you have room for trees in 10+ gallon pots and want to use coco treat like soil.
I wouldn't feed run off water to your plants either, save it for the garden if you like, but we worship these plants and give it everything fresh, that's dirty bathwater.

I think the extreme high ppms ate partly due to my dirty bath water feeds. I couldn't believe it when I saw the meter. It said 158 or something with a blinking x10. I turned it off and back on again. Then when I check the other plant it was like 210 x10. Wtf. Anyway I have a plan in place and everything should be in order in a day or two. All this wastes nutrients is making my stomach hurt. I won't be following the recommended any more either. Supposed to go up to 8ml/gal. I'm at 6 now so I'll keep it there for the rest of veg I'm thinking.

I hear ya Suntan! I dump the runoff into the garden plants, and when I flush, the window boxes LOVE me!

Ok bud, it's just a conversion from ec to ppm some meters read using the .5 scale and some by using .7 if you are using .7 I'd be somewhat happier with 950 ppm, but what will happen over time consistently feeding high ppm, is nutes will build up in your coco, especially when they start drinking more as they get bigger. Your ph will drop like a rock and totally lock out nutrients. Then you'll probably at that time add more nutes to correct a deficiency. You can only get away with it for so long and believe me it will happen.
Just feed light and let the plant tell you when it needs more, even if it was deficienct you will probably still yield more than over feeding.
Here is a chart of the difference, I think your .5 but you should know.

Okay, so that was all over my head, not much to comment on. I just hope one day I get to the point of understanding. Hiiiii Sun!

Hey G2HM ., I'm finally out of lock down, kinda. I trimmed my guts out cause the ggc wants an upgraded suite and it won't wait. The things I do for ladies .. I have an MRI in the AM/afternoon then I'll get all the sanitizing done and move them in.
They are starting to get squeezed out bad and it shows.

Swag I honestly think you are better off with 3 gal pots, unless you plan on growing 4 foot plus plants which wouldn't make sense in your case.

Really? Just did a quick measurement at 4 ft would be max for me I think at 18 inches away from the light. Which I don't know if that will be too close or not with this light. And I'll be in a scrog so I don't plan to have tall ass plants. Just bushy and wide to fill the net. As long as I can fill that whole 2x2.5 with colas from end to end. If u think I can do that in 3 gal then I'm more then willing to consider that.
