@Kingflipper What do you think bro??
Hey med, so I have had to drop my EC a lot in the last week and when I did my res change I had to set it at 1 EC but even setting it this low it has still climbed to 1.1 but the thing which is most concerning me is that my ph keeps dropping pretty rapidly whereas throughout flowering it has always risen and never dropped, is this a sign I'm in the last stage now or could I have an issue??

@MedGrower @Kingflipper @912GreenSkell Thank you guys for your very kind words! I knew DWC would suit me the most out of all the growing mediums as I am a numbers guy and very methodical in my approach to things, but honestly I think most of it is down to the awesome genetics of the plant, I have just kept it on the right track!
Regarding my PH and EC, in the past 24 hours I set my ph to 6.5 and EC to 0.9 on both girls, I have just checked now and my ph is pretty much 6 and EC has gone up to 1.1 so I am now going to bring it down to 0.7 but this seems very or this normal now??
King if you want to show off my girls, go ahead buddy, i would be thrilled!
912 I'm chasing that cookies record but not sure if I will get it, both of these girls could've been real monsters with more space but they are now just getting In each other' way but I am sure I will yield more with 2 plants in my space then 1.
Thanks as always guys for your sound advise![]()
Thanks Med, it's crazy as I set it to 0.7 this morning and already risen to 0.8 and PH dropped by 0.15 but I'm going to leave it to settle until at least this evening maybe tomorrow morning. Is potassium silicate, liquid silicon?? If so I have some of the growth technology one but does it raise EC by much??With your EC going up by 0.2 in 24 hours it makes sense your pH would come down some. Perhaps not that much but the trend is clear. Your plant likes to drink a lot of water now so yeah, lower the EC to 0.7 and see if she likes it there. Most likely the pH will stabilize better that way too. If the pH is still drifting down, maybe you could buffer your solution with some extra potassium silicate?
