Ok, I'll post pics later of plants so you can see how they look health wise.
I will flush today w/ 2 more gallons of ph'd water at 6.8 and 1/4th tsp of flush solution per gallon.

i will test the run off again after the last gallon and see where im at...but what i want to know is, is giving them water with a ph of 6.8 a permanent solution? does it hurt the plants?and if i got the hydrated lime(which im more then willing to get) would that be permanent as well? or would i have to keep adding it over the course of the grow?

I do have cal mag and use a tsp per gallon in RO water...here was my feeding schedule the very first week...I think you will see where i went wrong pretty fast.

day 1 Transplanted clones 9/27 10pm...first watering at 1030pm
w/ 1/2 tsp of cal mag
1/2 tsp liquid karma
1 tsp grow
total ppm 275 ph of water 6.6

day 2 1tsp cal mag
2 tsp grow
1 tsp LK
475!!!! ppm 6.5 ph

(day 3 i had a 510 ppm) (day 4 515 ppm- still looked healthy too)
I should probly menion that i was only using 1 gallon of water for all 12 plants

(day5 550 ppm (thought i noticed yellowing...but couldnt tell)

Day 6 550 ppm (very very slight yellowing on 1-2 plants)

day 7 (monday 10/4)600 ppm definate curling of leaves upward(taco) but not much more yellowing...

day 8 (tues- did what i thought would be a decent flush to clear out all the excess nutrients i gave them)

day 9(wednes - did nothing )


when looking at the chart i gave the link too, I realized way to many nutes...correct? when i do resume feeding say friday...is 250-350 about the right ppm like chart says?


thanks a lot man....huge help
