yes, the run-off is used with soil and soilless synthetic and organic nutrients. But this is when the plant has grown into it's pot and needs optimum nutrition and water requirements. The amount of salts ( nutrients) can accumulate and not be in the balanced ideal recipe we pick. So one washes out the accumulations by adding 30% extra water per pot.
Shovelhandle Reviewed by Shovelhandle on . nitrogen deficiency? im a first time indoor grower and had started some random seeds. they started off great and look green and healthy but then all the bottom leaves started to slowly go yellow and fall off. i wasnt sure what the problem was so i did some research to solve the problem and realised the ph was way out at about 8. so i flushed the plants and corrected the ph but i think maybe its to late for my baby. any suggestions or tips or is it to late? and they seem a little over watered so i will not water Rating: 5
