How am I doing?

Are you checking ph of water? Do you use cal mag, they look good but have a deficiency in cal mag or potassium they show up together alot.

 

yes, as @Popcorn said, you need to check pH going in and pH coming out (runoff).

 

Needs some nitrogen, usually not needed as much in flower stage but the leaves are kinda yellow, also cal-mag. Besides that she looks good.

 

yes, I was feeding at 6.5 last couple weeks ago... but my runoff has been getting lower, and lower, and today it was 5.2 after feeding 7.1 solution. Glad I am keeping an eye on it

 

If the question was not answered already you check the ph of run off to make sure the soil itself is at the ph you want, which in turn lets you know how to adjust what is going in to fix the problem if there is one. I prefer the slurry test it gives more accurate results. If you are not familiar with this test what you do is dig into soil about an inch or two when your soil is dry and ready for a watering take a small sample of the dirt 2-3 pinches and mix equal or 2/1 water/dirt ratio, 15 min later check ph and ppm should be a true reading of where the soil is at. Ph run off is sometimes misleading.(you should still double check with run off or at least I do) the run off is then disposed of not recycled through.

 

yes feed bloom now, and again, please check the pH of the soil.

as @Popcorn explained; you should re-read the post I wrote, my experience... see, if I had not been monitoring the runoff, I would still be feeding 6.0 solution, but what would have happened to the media? It would continue to acidify until nutrients were locked out and/or roots were damaged. By monitoring the pH, I am able to correct problems before they arise.

 

These guys are right. My soil ph drifts down to mid 5’s. We know we need to keep it ABOVE about 6.2 because that’s when my plants start to struggle with nutrient intake. I’ve taken to watering with water phd to around 7-7.3 ph to bring my soils ph up so my plants have no problem eating all their food. Ideally we want the soil about 6.5,, but unless you have lime or a soil that adjust ph itself, you’ve gotta continuously adjust as your plants use up the available nutrients in the soil at any given time.

 

Yup, you won’t be adding anything so don’t flush, just give her a nice healthy of higher ph. Personally I adjust by the amount I’m off. So if I want my ph at 6.7 and it’s at 5.9 I’m going to water with a ph of around 7.5. Check it, it’ll get up maybe to 6.3, next watering or feeding, I do it again.

 

This can be tricky. I am not a fan of flushing as I find it wasteful and potentially detrimental to the plant's health. You already flushed, so not too much mineral buildup, but the pH is dropping.
What I've done before following a flush is prepared a solution with appropriate calmag and rinse the solution off and collect everything. I check the pH and increase it with pH up (or potassium hydroxide actually, you can and should make your own) and then run it through again. I repeat this adjusting the pH accordingly each time. It took many rounds, like a dozen, but eventually the runoff stabilized. I then discard the solution and then flush with the appropriate pH'd and normal nutrent solution (enough to flush completely). As far as I know, this is my method, so don't expect to find it online. I think I will be using it again soon on my own plant, although she's still happy so I'm not too worried about it (she likes it hot).

If you are in soil or peat moss based media, then add some dolomite (gardening) lime to the soil, they have time released pellets nowadays. Do that if you transplant (along with perlite).

 

I should add though... I've been feeding 7.2 for days now and the runoff has been rising. It just takes time, and if you don't need an immediate fix, then just keep watering at a higher ph and monitor your runoff. PS its good to monitor your EC as well Good luck with it

 

If you are growing in FFHF, then you should use some type of camg from the get go, as it doesn't have much ca or mg in HF or OF. I use GH camg+ and for seedlings I use 2ml per gallon, otherwise I use 5ml per gallon whether feeding or just watering all the way to the end of week 6, then I do one more week at 2ml, (week 7), then I cot them off completely. Unless you are growing organically, where those supplements are in the soil, calcium and magnesium should always be part of your feeding program.
