Correct me if Im wrong.....

I have some nute burn so I am flushing in an ebb n flow system with distilled water. My run out PH is higher than the reservior PH. Am I correct in assuming that the point of flushing is to have the Run out ph and reservior ph the same and if I do that, then I can properly flush.


Do you all recomment feeding full stregnth nutrients after flushing or half? I am going to flush for about a day, is that long enough?


Oh yeah and I'm about 4 weeks into flowering so I'm like freaking out, my plants havent gotten yellow and brown around the edges of the leaves and kinda stopped growing.


THANKS FOR THE HELP

Flushing for a day won't hurt anything, and is a good idea to do regularly. If you use distilled water, which has a pH of 7.0, you should lower the pH to 5.6 before it goes to your plants.

If the pH of your solution is higher directly after flooding, it means that your medium pH is higher than your res, and you should lower the pH of your res, so as to lower the pH of your medium.

have u got pics that u can show if nutt look up pictures of def if it gets bad you can use some epson salts r good for some def.but u have to no what def it is b4 giveing epson salts.if its just the tips u can catch it early......... 1 teaspoon per gallon get the ph on 6 as its were u get all the trace elments.do this 1s u have flushed with plain water first with a ph of 5 to lower salt level in the root mass.it might be a ph problem rather than a nute lock problem good luck hope everthing goes fine...........

Thank you for you help. I'm sorry no pics, digi camera broke. It may be a deficiency but I've been using full strength General hydrponic bloom nutrients, floralicious plus and a lil superthrive.

So naturally Im like they cant be lacking but still dying..

but I may be wrong. Its my first grow so I'm like stoked in flowering but nervious also b/c leaves not looking so good

4 weeks into flowering is time to stop feeding SuperThrive, since that's a growth vitamin/hormone elixir.
