I have a recommended TDS multifunction meter. It’s mild water with ~140ppm and ~pH8 last I checked. I watered these larger plants in with 955ppm at and had a run off 977. The pH was probably have been the usual 6.2-6.8 chasing I pay less attention. Propagates are the same soil blend and more like 500ppm when I set them in the cups of soil for rooting. The large ones are really missing my attention being redirected toward them.

I am balancing the decision of uppotting and expanding back into veg and flower space, nursing to health and taking cuttings again, or just turning the lights off and letting them go if I don’t really have any other indoor grow friends I’ve been able to stay in contact with.

The collection is haze hybrid, TKxJealousy cuttings was given. Then the VT strawnannaz, bubba 2, bubba 1, and unknown strain that I cut and reveg‘d. I am just not very ambitious to wokr them out with my small space when I have the GKMxDOC seeds that I already know I’ll absolutely love. It’s the floor space issue, the legal limit and the poor experience with the diesel and one of the bubbas outdoor.

Ive been pretty bummed out that this big bubba plant turned out to be undesirable and after all the work I’ve temporarily lost my ambition. View attachment 19095924

Friend I love your determination and growing drive. You will make a good grower in the long run but you have to slow down and take a few breaths. When you say 955ppm to water your plants you are telling me you are using too much ppm.

When I grow weed I only use 250 ppm counting cal mag. 150 ppm is cal mag and 100 ppm is fertilizer giving me a total of 250 ppm max. I give my plants 250 ppm with every watering. The problem with using 955 ppm is when you use that much it accumulates. When It accumulates it blocks the good nutrients from being used.

Start with clean water if possible if not then you will need to modify it. Either case don't use so much fertilizer or you will have problems.
