Your a star I messed around for 2 hrs lol and could not do it, u tell me 2 things a word and tell me what to do and hey presto I get it too a tee now. Low ec high ph high ec low pH.

To get those pH and EC readings is got going in was made 6 litres of water added 2ml each of
Grow
Velokelp
Magnifical
Bloom
Mono trace mix
Astro flower
Micro
Natures candy.
That made my ph 6.5 and EC 0.6 no pH down or up needed awsome water here lol.

I’m going to go get some ph up tomorrow and bring my ph going in to 7.5 this should till harvest bring my run off up to 6.2 ish and add same nutes or altar them till my ec drops in run off also.

How’s that sound matey.

Anyone looking to drain trays quick £40 screw fix titans wet&dry hoover awsome would be still at it till same time tommorow.

Haha , wet vacuums are awesome eh!

Good you got the ec down.
Ph is fine between 6-6.5. Leave it there.
Personally i wouldnt go above ph6.5. They dont like it.

Just leave them for now.
Let them drain, and dry a little.

Then do the same thing tomorrow.

Your ph is fine.
If the waste ph is still low. It needs another big rinse tomorrow.
Dont ever feed at a higher ph to counter a low waste. It does more harm than good.
Always PH your feed properly.

Good news dude.
They should perk up a little.

Tim

:peace:

Ah ok so I’ll keep 6 to 6.5 going in till harvest and lower ec to 0.8 run off and try get that ph up at high 4z it’s crazy low and I don’t get the 6.5 going in will rise that but I’ll do what u say.

Does this flush/rinse need to be what iv just done ph 6.5 ec 0.6 not straight water.

Never do another without a wet&dry that’s for shore.

Ive been there dude. Dont worry. The waste ph will rise eventually. Guarantee. 100%
Get ph up out of your head.

Your nutrient feed is catching salt on the way through. Thats why the ph is low. Its buildup.
My point is. How do you know you've rinsed it properly, if you are using ph up?
Ph your feed properly. Period. 5.8 - 6.5ph.
All there is to it.
Last time im saying it :P

Do it all slow.
Might even take a few days.
Just be calm about it.

Your headed in the right direction.

Good luck GLN

:peace:

Ye mate will do like u say plants don’t like above ph 6.5 in coco so no point putting 7 in to counter my bad ph.

U did not need to say again matey that sunk in for shore I won’t ever get another grow wrong after this learning curve. Missing feeds and letting my pots in coco dry out has just built up salts for weeks.

Slow mode is here rush mode left behind.

Thank Tim. I o u
