So I semi flushed my girls today. They are approaching week 7 So I wanted to start them on pure water and help break up whatever could be left in the soil from the nutes. They are in 5 gallon pots. I used about 2 1/2 -3 gallons in them. My water pH is 6.0-6.5. I have a Control Wizard Accurate pH8. Soil is a steady 6.5-6.8, however the run off was a VERY low, 4.0 and lower possibly. Could this be from the minor discoloration of the water when it came out? The salts from the fert I used? Makes me wonder how a run off can be so low when the ingoing waters pH is 6.0-6.5 and the soil it self is 6.5-6.8....hmmmm!!!

From what I understand, you only flushed with 3 gallons in a 5 gallon pot?
You're supposed to double or even triple the pot size.
So 10-15 flush water.

Now THAT'S a flush.
