How do I make the solution❓
You buy the KCL, likely on line, and mix it with distilled water. There are recipes for making a 3 molar mix on line, it has to be specifically for KCL. Here is an example:


Or you could just add 23.3 grams to 100 ml of distilled water and call it done. :biggrin: This is the recipe I used, and the resulting solution has kept my Apera happy for well over a year and through several grows.

You may have to warm the solution up to get all of the KCL to dissolve. 3M seems to be pretty close to fully saturated. Once it is as dissolved as it is going to get, I just decant the clear liquid into my clean container, and use a syringe to transfer some to the storage cap on the meter as required. Only a half inch or so in the bottom of the cap is needed. There is a mark on the cap to fill to when the meter is new, but it disappears after significant use.

Good luck with it, and feel free to ask more questions if I can help. :pighug:
 
@x00m yes it is in the process of flipping sometimes they flip fast sometime they flip slowly. Yours appears to be flipping slowly, new leaves tend to look a bit weird when they do that. I would definitely remove the leaves with brown spots on them. It would not hurt to tuck some of those big leave in too. Otherwise everything looks fine to me.

should i wait a nother week before changing it to bloom nutes then?

It's not going to make a whole lot of difference if any, it does depend somewhat on what nute system you're using but in a nutshell I would suggest half of each so it's a sort of transition mix.
