Ph

[xX24nuggetsXx]

I’ve just tested the runoff of my water and it’s sayings my ppm is 6000 and my ph is 4.4 do I just normal ph’d water until it’s level again?

Runoff of your water? You mean from the plant I hope.

Depends on a lot,need more info.

 

[MickFoster]

What medium?

 

[xX24nuggetsXx]

What medium?

I’m growing in soil

Yeah from the plant I’m growing in soil I’ve only just got a ph and ppm pen yesterday so I’ve kinda just been winging it which I’d say is why it’s so far out

If you are growing in soil, why worry about the pH or ppm...just use tap water and don't worry about it

Just check the pH... make sure whatever you're feeding it, that the final solution is around 6.0

Well if my water is high in ph or low and my ppm of my water put don’t you think it would be smart to amend it?

You say soil. Are you talking peat moss? Fox Farms or something close?

 

[HydroKid239]

It’s the first plant I’ve grown so I just picked up a bag of soil with some nutrients in it already but the plants been in the soil for 3 months now

Looks like N tox, Phosphorus deficiency... I would flush it and give it a nice full strength feed after. If you don’t know how to properly flush a plant just say so. The memes are waiting I can imagine lol.. nah for real tho.. flush the medium with 6.0 water. Til you get 6.0 out of the bottom. Then feed and let recover for a couple days.

 

[xX24nuggetsXx]

Well it’s the first plant I’ve ever grown so I gotta start somewhere thanks for the info I appreciate it

Soil and checking run off is going to black your brain. Trust your dirt. Test your water BEFORE. Not after. Otherwise you end up like me think you have all kinds of problems and make it worse. Feed on schedule accordingly. And it should fox itself. Even my dumb ass just learned this. I did the exact same thing bro. Exact. Bought a tds. And got crazy.

@bk78 why don’t you enlighten the small crowd? Or did you get restricted down to only being able to use 1 reaction on RIU now?

Yeah sweet glad to hear I’m not the only one! Yeah I just gotta trust the process I guess I’m just a bit to excited cheers for the info

@bk78 I figured that much
I heard you were a Chunker For Life now. I wouldn’t consider it an upgrade. Have fun peeping in with your troll disability check.
