With organics ppm readings are bogus - as long as your plants are happy and healthy you are fine. No real need to water to runoff either - you are just flushing your beneficials out of the soil :)

Does adding extra PK in an organic grow extend curing time ? Thanks !My friend that uses Biotabs nutrient as I do achieved a better taste than I did on our AMS Wedding cake seeds. Tastes a bit like mustard whereas his is tasty even though they were all dried just 2 weeks ago. My leaves were always dark green , Maybe adding PK wasn't necessary ?

Ph changed from 6.3 to 6.8 two days after adding nutes/vinegar to bring ph down. Tested too soon? How long to wait to check water ph after treatment?Water that i had ph’d was sitting at 6.3 had jumped to 6.8 two days later. I’m assuming its because when I mixed i tested immediately after without letting sit for a while (shook jug after adding vinegar/nutes ~30 sec). Curious if i tested too soon or it adjusted while settling

Continuing calmag deficiency What I think is a calmag deficiency started about 10 days ago. At first I thought it was too low PH (6.0 - 6.1), so I corrected that, but no luck. Then I started adding biobizz calmag, still no luck. It seems that the deficiencies are picking up speed again. Any ideas appreciated

Phosphorus deficiency? Week 5 of flowering Is this a phosphorus deficiency? I originally saw orange and brown spots form on other leaves, but now I'm seeing blackish/purple spots. I've been having soil pH issues with this one, so may need a proper flush. Temps have also been low the past few days (60-65 but as low as 56)

Why is my run off high?Coco and clay pebbles run off water reading 7.1 and my water going in is at 5.8. How do I fix it? I water twice a day with at least 20% run off every time. Should I water more often? Or do a flush to bring the pH back down. I know it should be the same going in and out.

Nutrient or plain phd water?So, this girl had some deficiency that I couldn´t guess what it was so I went for ph. Now, she seems nice as I flushed her some days ago. I think she has about 2-3 weeks to go and I didn´t feed her as nice as I wanted. Do you think I should water her with nutrients or just water?
