PH levels for coco in Bud

[OG Superfly]

Ok so I am PH ing my nutrients at 5.8-6.3 for my Budding plants in coco, someone here said check your ph level of your run off si have several times now and what I come up with is whatever the PH was when I watered them is exactly what the PH comes up from the runoff water......I hope that is riht and I hope that is good.
Thanks Fly

anyone ???????????????????????

Your pH range is fine. You don't have to check the run-off for anything - waste of time.

Best advise I ever got was just to "read the plants".

In coco you don't need to measure run off really, Just PH your water after mixing and not to over feed and your solid. Coco does better with less but more frequent feedings

I feed about 1 gallon twice a day.. In a 3 gallon smart pot.

Check how heavy your pot is when you give her a full feeding , then water determine by how heavy it is...

Ya man coco needs a lot of water haha

When you say feed, you mean nutes. Not a watering?

Never give coco just plain water,

If anyone anything water the nutes down

sorry, i meant Cal-mag watering

Yea just start with feeding everyday, if you can. You don't want the coco to dry out that's bad. When you feed just split up the normal amount into two parts, 1 hour when the lights flip on, 1 hour before lights flip off. That's what I'm doing at least.

Don't have to copy but just figure out what works for you, my plant likes frequent feeds but low PPM's

Like I said the plant im growing is very sensitive to heavy feedings. I'm just sharing what works for me and my plant.
