Does the pH always rise like this during flushing?
Its happened previously to me (earlier in this growlog).
I figure i'll change it out when the pH stabilizes, since the ppm has basically stopped rising

The salts from your ferts buffered the ph to a certain ph...now with little nutes in the water the ph is gettin' kinda wild....little buffer

pH 6.97
ppm 225

So should i give them some liquid karma?

It doesn't have much N P K, but definitely some buffering ability. Ive always wondered why people stop with the non-food additives (AN does not have Sensi Zym in there nute caculator the final week).

Or does this not matter? The plant drinks water, and its not locking anything out, because theres nothing to lock out (no nutes).

Thoughts?

You should send me a bud for spending a day showing you Steiner's nutrient solution.

true that!
My other project is a beast compared to this one.
I also did not burn it with Bud Blood, like i semi-did with this one.

Props to you for that weekend lesson. My outdoor veggie garden will surely thank you. Maybe ill actually send you some mater'



This grow has lost most of its vigor. The buds are really starting to weigh down, and spread open the canopy, not to mention all the dying yellow leaves.
Pics coming momentarily

Day 53 Flowering
current pH 7.13 ppm 230
So, don't worry about the rising or not I get that the lack of ppm makes it unstable, but I don't want soaring past 8.

Check out the loss of vigor, especially on those under shots. Some fan leaves were completely limp, but still green.
Buds are very heavy too!

Very nice my fellow ak brother. I want to know the weight when they dry up... Oh and btw what is the typical weight loss from harvest to dry?
