flushing

  • Posted by Unknown Member on May 6, 2025 at 7:27 am

    welp i was being a bit lazy and not watering enough the last couple weeks and i feel like one of my plants is a bit stunted(Gelato cookies) a few weeks ago i noticed the edges goin slightly yellow so i cut food back to 50% ( i think i should have flushed here) it hasnt gotten worst but not getting better either. noticing lower leaves slowly dying and the colas arnt really gettin fat like her neighboor Northern lights. we are in day 29F runninfox farm nutes a bit of calimagic early and fox farms ocean forest mixed with coco/gypsum with a couple inches of coco on bottom of 5gal cloth pots and i top feed.

    I just ran a couple gallons through it and the run off was cloudy for shure but i dont have a ppm meter for testing. Heres the question should i flush more? she is the one on left.

    Not to intrude on the flushing part is great. Anyway I’m really wondering if that is a rug in the back round of the photo. If so I have one just like it. Mine is 8 ft by 11 ft huge and heavy. Thanks

    I don’t know the answer but if you’re in NE Ohio, I have an extra ppm meter you can have. I just got a Yinmik from Amazon that does ph, ec, ppm, and more. It was $50. I am keeping the Yinmik, but you can have my basic ppm meter. The only thing I do not like about the Yinmik is that it is bluetooth only.

        If you get the Yinmik, just know you Must enable location or it will Not connect. I don’t like that but it is what it is. The Yinmik comes with ph up, down, and 7.0 calibration. 2 packets each.

    I don’t see any legitimate reason to flush out any minerals from your soil. I’m not seeing any signs of excess. Without a way to measure the run off EC and pH, you’re throwing darts in the dark.

        Intersex traits are genetic and never your fault unless you made the seeds from known intersex parents. That’s on the ‘breeder’ and mother nature. Better to know asap so you don’t waste any more time on them.

    So the weight of the flushing is near that of the overcrap in the feed, but Lary says: what did you do with the turd? – Johny says; l don`t know, ask the worms…
