New Grower TxRebel 1st grow Gelato from Fastbuds

Preflower formly known as double ugly!...

And last slurry was 6.2ph/115ppm

What is your schedule? And where are you in relation to the next herc flush?
Things don't look bad, so don't panic, but I would calibrate the pH meter, then slurry. I end up calibrating about once a month.

I actually haven’t done HH flush yet since ppm has stayed between 110-250ppm every slurry and got good Apera ph pen and put 4.0 solution in cap and turn on in the cap before each use to make sure it’s at 4.0 before testing soil! Thinking just need slight bump to raise ppm but thinking DD needs large bump since seeing the rust spots on new growth! Thanks for any advice! Oh should I do a flush on em or not unless ph/ppm get too outta whack?

 

[Fermented_Fruitz]

Oh and feeding each 3/4gal every 3 days now

Everything sounds like you've got it sorted! Just slurried my girls, pH is low, 6.25 and 230. Will be bumping the HH so i can bump the Oly up. Should take the ppm up some as well... 300 and 6.6 would make for a good Thanksgiving. Figure I've got about 4 weeks till they start coming down. They sure eat differently in small bags.

I'll be moving back to 3 gal next start.

Oh when should I start using slf100 cuz ordered some off amazon that I should have in hand soon?? And when do I need to flush? Only if they get outta whack on ph or ppm like grow bible said? My soil stays pretty well buffered cuz it’s slowly gone down from 7.3 when it was fresh n both sit even or off by maybe .1 on ph and getting diff nute regimen and ppm stays pretty even too! Biggest swing between em was diff of 60ppm! Were those crusty rust spots cuz I need to hit em hard with the DD since using distilled water?

 

[Arthur]

Kinda depends on your ppm. If your pushing, the ppm will build over a couple 3 feedings, so most run 3 feeds and then a HH flush. Maybe a tea day in there somewhere.

SLF100 I run once a week, 1 tablespoon per gal. After pHing. If your getting a buildup on the surface of the soil, 2 tablespoons per.

In coco I run 5 ml per gall every feed.

Yes on upping DD if seeing mg issues. I'm currently at 200% and may need to up a little. I use a lot more under LED than I need under el sol.

Thanks buddy I thought I’d be safe upping it since calcium based anyways! And as to the buildup on top of soil I noticed it looks kinda gummy compared to the soil a couple inches below the surface! And do I need to push up entire lineup across all 6 nutes or are there any I should focus on more than others?

Also 1 more question for u @Arthur ... Am I far enough along that I should cut off some of these lower branches that sit under canopy and are moving slower so more energy goes to the good stuff or wait lil longer still??

The 1 I’m pulling down is example but few of those I could prob take off if they r just wasting fuel! Thx man and sorry if I’m getting antsy on ya! Also other 1 is now further along so may be some I could take off it too??
