got an off topic question, figured ill ask here instead of creating a new thread. how much do your plants eat ppm wise during 3rd week of veg? its my 1st grow so trying to figure this stuff out and have nothing to compare it with.

Can you explain the " over 80 degrees" I intentionally keep the grow tent temps between 70 to 78. Should I increase it to over 80?

What pump are you using for your system?

I found the issue. My water pump is leaking small amount of electricity into the water and causing the EC meter to read wrong.

ya i thought so too. ill give it a day or so and if it keeps doing that then its going back to where it came from lol

i think so, currently im circulating about 270 gallons per hour and here are some photos of the probe.

does it fluctuate a during the day? like for example when i posted that it was 930 then it went down to 900 and now about 21 min after my post its down to 890. im just trying to figure out if this kind of movement is normal. also how often do u take readings? once a day or 2 times?

Do you keep your probes in the tank at all time? i got this model so i can leave the ph and ec probe submerged and just glance at it a few times a day to see how my plants are doing.

well its brand new, took it out of the box 3 days ago and this happened. and after cleaning it , i checked the ec test liquid and it showed exactly on point 2.77EC , now back in the res , it showed 930 and 1hr later im at 900. ill have to wait a few days too see if that massive drop happens...

Ok, so it was the bluelab guardian giving wrong info. i gently shook the prob and today before it was showing 600 now its showing 920. im guessing something was stuck on the prob leads or something. not sure but wanted to post it incase someone has similar issue.

never mind something was wrong with my bluelab, i gently shook the probe and now its ready 920ppm

ya something strange is going on or im over thinking it. Now @10pm the ppm is back up to 810. i dont see how they would consume over 100 ppm and then return it back to the res? lol i really dont get it

i got a Bluelab MONGUA Guardian and very happy with it. But today my ppm went from 850 down to 680 and up to 850 again during the course of 4hrs. I cant figure out if this normal or something wrong with the bluelab guardian

Hey guys, had an interesting question. my plants seem to be eating most when the lights go out. is that normal? for example today at 9am the lights went out and ppm was 850 (700 scale) at 3pm ppm was at 710. Lights go back on @3pm and now 1hr after the lights went on ppm dropped another 20 to...

what mix ration for the epsom salt to water should i use for the foliar spray

should i add some calimagic or lower the light intensity and wait a day or so then if lowering the light doesn't help add calimagic ?

my starting ph was 5.8 but now it went up to 6. could this be the issue? i am using lucas formula and have another setup outside in a greenhouse with basically same formula and non of them are showing any signs like this, so this is why i went with the light burn, but i could be wrong

So i am experimenting with my LED lights and i think i might of given my plants a little light burn. I am using fluence spydr 2p with dimmer. initially it was about 20" from the top of the plants and dimmed down to 30% which was using about 213 watts each light ( i have 2 of them in a 4x8 tent...

Waterfall in each bucket or just the control bucket is enough for that?

im interested to know what other ways is there to add DO to the res. if you could please link me something or explain more that would be awesome and thank u in advance.
