Excellent work shrubs! I've been silently following both grows and you've helped a lot.
I have a question about testing run-off..... Are you testing the water that collects in the 5gal buckets? Or, are you testing the run-off from an individual pot(s)?
Also, what model Oakton tester are you using? (i think it was an Oakton or Oaktron)
Thanks for the great journal !
Thanks dude, glad to have you, awesome questions as well.
On the run-off, I test what is draining out of my trays at the end of my feeding so
as to get the most clean and up to date reading, only if I notice deficiencies, or
toxicity will I test plants individually, but if you were running just a couple plants
testing individuals wouldn't be difficult, but it would be a bitch to test 16 individuals.
I rarely clean the buckets the run-off is caught in so I test before it hits the bucket.
I'm using the Oakton PTTester 35 which tests TDS/pH/Temperature. The TDS
is on a .7 EC scale, I had to call and confirm that, because it doesn't say it anywhere.
awesome comparison and improvement this round man
how much longer did you veg this round?
Thanks, they look better in my eyes as well.. Healthier, happier and much larger.
I didn't really veg last grow, maybe a week? And this grow I vegged a little over 2 weeks.
