This post is so rebellious!!
Hope you mean this in a good way haha though using the 2inch netpots full grow was a shit idea.
Also the plants that are sharing a bucket have fully entagled roots so Im unsure how to flush the plant closest to harvest. How long do you even flush in hydro?

If you kept your ph in range your plants would be much bigger .

But i get it lots of perps think they have to stay within a point of ph .


And dont let that hoo haw steer you away from the flush lol ;)

How many days have you let the ph be so low a week? Mabey 2?
PHed maybe two weeks ago. sometimes I put in 60ppm tapwater (my buckets have such little volume that the ph changes constantly so I just gave it up
I think so too also I think my oxygen is a little to low so yield wont be big but its my first grow anyways.

No flushing? I Used to be all about Uncle Ben and flushing is for toilets but with my homies weed I kind of tasted the diffrence. I read like you should flush 2-5 days in hydro
I’ve taken weed to cannabis cup a few years ago and pro smokers couldn’t tell the difference. You can’t magically flush anything out of the plant. Most of the nutrients ppl attempt to flush are immobile. It’s all in the drying and curing process.

I know you were making a little joke, but I strongly disagree! Growing weed isn't very easy, which is why these forums are so full of people with questions and problems. Sticking a seed in the ground, watering it, and getting something to grow is easy, but managing them throughout their life, and properly harvesting, drying, and curing is almost an art. Growing inside greatly complicates things as you're trying to duplicate something as complex as nature, within a room.

Even the experts run into problems they have to ask the community about.

But after a while, growing weed definitely becomes easier :)

Way out of pH range. Your plants are just feeding off their stored energy, since they're nor going to be able to absorb and deliver nutrients by the plants.

Yes it was a joke but the point is that cannabis is a very very resiliant plant. We can make the growing of it as high tech or low tech as we want, and get varying results, but the fact remains it is one of the fastest and most vigorous plants in the world.

I hear ya! These plants will bounce back from just about anything! If it's still got a little green, it can be saved LOL :)

Have you calibrated your ph meter recently? Your getting real close to running vinegar lol. Not saying it can’t be done as I’ve never had the balls to take it that low lol. But yup plants look good and really they don’t look like their eating them selves, amazing actually ;).
