That's the ppm... that calculates to 0.7 ec

 

[jondamon]

The water without nutes ec is 0.7

That’s seriously high.
I forgot it was that high.

you need to do something about that.

Ideally you want it 0.4 or under. Otherwise RO system would be needed.

Can't do nothing about it this run I'm afraid... any plasters able to help??

I’ll be honest I’ve never had to deal with high EC source water.

the trouble is you know very little of what’s actually in it without a water analysis data sheet from the supplier.

The issues you’re experiencing could be caused by the water.

if it’s got high sodium content, chloromine or chloride, how much fluoride, how much Ca and Mg, how much phosphates etc etc.

So what should I do?? Cut them down and start again?? Get a ro thing...

Let’s not forget here you’ve been using this water from the start.

so it can’t be really bad or you wouldn’t have got this far lol.

calm down you’re doing good.

Watch what happens during the reduced strength feeding.

when in doubt back off and watch for signs of requiring more feed.

OK.... I'm looking into an under sink RO system.... around £100 need to check the balance at the end of the month lol...

I'll keep you posted...

 

[Lochness1980]

All ecs are OK today nothing above 1.4 nothing under 1.2... I'll keep you all posted...

Fuck knows what's going on but I swear to god these plants are a fucking enigma.... LSD3 is all the way back up to 1.9 yay and that's on half a ml per 2ltr... intake of 0.8.... I'm honestly baffled I'm literally giving them half ml A+B and half ml calmag... does anyone please have any ideas on whats going on... LSD3 looks pale and not as green as she used to but apart from that she's growing so are her buds... temp and RH are all as should be... there plenty fresh air exchange.. no pests or fungi... just a MASSIVE FUCKING HEADACHE!!!!

Cal/mag wants to be upto 400ppm and then add ya a&b and take ya ec upto .9 I think you started flowering same time. These are 4 weeks. Running on vita link a&b only with cal/mag

His source water is 0.7-0.9.

but I agree that the plants now look like they Need more A/B

that’s the signs I mentioned previously.

lower growth getting pale you can increase your feed.

I think your source water is messing something up with the runoff etc and whatever the coco is holding onto and then dumping out.

Move to 1ml.

like I said it’s just hard because you’re starting with such high source water EC.
