What do these results of a flush mean?

[iloveit]

After viewing some defficiency diagnosis threads I realised my mother plant had built up salts in the soil so I flushed the soil using tap water @ a ph of 6.2 and these were the results:

Run off: 5.8
PPM: 1200
MS: 1.3

But what does this signify? Good/bad?

Bad idea using tap water, the CL in the water could easily kill your plant. Cl burn is very common amongst those who use tap water. It should always be boiled* before you pour it on your plants.

*Edit: And it should obviously be cooled before being poured on them as well

Yeah, if u wanna flush ur plants with tap, boil it, or let it sit 24hrs, this rids it of the chlorine.
Also, if u want an alternative, use distilled water. you can get it at wal-mart for like 74 cents a gallon
=D

I allowed the water to sit for 24hrs as always. But I performed the flushed to wipe away the salts in the soil, but what do the results mean what do they say about the soil/plant?

Boiling 40L of water is difficult in my house hold, however I did allow the water to sit out for a little over 24hrs.

Im not sure what CL burn looks like but I was using nutes for every watering & now the Blueberry mother plant is extremely close to the fluros (hot hot hot) & was showing signs of salt build up so I flushed it out & now Ill be using nutes only every other feed, hopefully It will stop growing in length & only grow new nodes for cloning.

Look folks, you don't have to boil tap water. All you have to do is let it sit out in an open bucket for about a day. You will probably have to PH adjust it, as tap water is notoriously alkaline in most places. Tap water also contains trace minerals that are good for your plants.

But I know that some people are dyed in the wool RO/Distilled water people, and that's fine. But I repeat, if you let the chlorine evaporate out of tap water it is just fine! It will not kill or hurt your plants!

Yep thats what I did, sit out for 24hrs but can anyone comment on the run off results & what it says about the soil/plant please?

Most of us know I am sure that you can let it sit for a long period of time, but if you are in quick need of the water a 2 hour cool down is preferred over a 24 hour wait.

the runoff is the ph of the water running out of ur soil flush thoroughly and let it dry out

My first post shows the difference in ph so what do the results of my actual results show
