So I'm at day 26 with my girl and I've noticed some wilting today and yesterday. Yesterday I gave her some water and, she reacted well. Today I gave her a light perimeter feeding and she reacted well again.. so what can I expect tomorrow? lol Somethings obviously missing, so I've put an order out for a ph tester today, to check things out more thoroughly...

But until that arrives, what should I do if it gets bad?

thanks:wall: *shoulda got a ph tester in the first place*

flushing as i understand it is to saturate the soil one time really good with plain water to flush out the salt buildup from the nutes...nice ladies btw...are you using 3 double lights?:weed:

to flush it, you basicly give it 2 big doses of fresh water within 24 hours of the harvest
high times says it like this, ill paraphrase
add enough water to the dirt to completely saturate it, let it drain for a few minutes
then add an amount of water equal to the size of the container the plants are growing in, like for a 1 gallon container, youd use atleast 1 gallon of water or more, within reason
if youre growing in soil you wana be sure and harvest within 24 hours of flushing, cuz the soil will start to feed the plant more of the crap youre trying to flush away once it has time to start drying out

:leaf::leaf: Looking great. You basically just run alot of water through the plant. About 2 or 3 times the amount of soil you have in your pot. I ran 3 gallons through mine when i flushed her. :leaf::leaf:

you should flush two weeks b4 harvest.(me,i like to go three weeks)when you flush you should use just p.h.'d water.(a p.h. of 6.5-7.0 is optimal 4 soil.A p.h. of 5.5-6.5 is the optimal level for hydroponics.)

So my girl has done her turn, pretty surprised for 228 watts of flouro tubing, but all in all, I think a pretty decent run.

She smokes a dream!!!

See you on the next one guys

:joint: (any clues as to the yield by looking? I haven't officially weighed it yet)
