Just some extra info from today, I checked my run off for the first time in a while and my PH is back in range. It dropped as low as 4.0 so I stopped checking it. My E.C has been cosistent, my run off has always been above input by 0.2 E.C
A few more photos from today.
Looking back and putting my Calcium deficiency to the side this grow journal does confirm that you can grown in pure coco without checking your run off pH.. but i definitely feel that this is incorrect and comes at a cost of yield.
MY last two grows both showed signs of slower uptake of water/food and PH stress & Im set on this being due to the run off pH. Also the main reason I fed 5x per day this round was due to the PH drop not because my plants needed it.
MY next grow journal I plan on beating this pH drop in early flower by inoculating. the only reason I'm choosing a slightly organic approach is because I don't have the time and need help
. Hopefully this fixes the problem but if not I will have to buffer myself and chase the pH.
This grow j will mostly be about my understanding of Coco and I plan on keeping it short and sweet flowering these ladies.
I have kept these under low light and under watered to try slow them down but now reviving them to take clones and flip.
1x Miami Madness
1x Mind Melter
2x Exodus cheese
I think that's all
until then happy Sunday
