Oh I can clearly see you're not going to get any flowers o geeze look at those super crispy unsavorable plants lol. Should probably just toss them out and start over. It's a shame you have to be such a lying non-PH person Hahaha

No seriously though glad to see the ladies are going strong good job getting them back on track!
Thanks for your support.
Quite happy with the way these ladies are coming on
Strangely people don't look at the mistakes and go ooh fuck look there coming back ok after what being killed for a second time LOL
Yes being throttled twice will probably affect the yield
What it has done so far is miniaturised the leaves on those plants
So what they yield like is???

Am I doing something wrong
Still have another ten sessions booked. LOL

I bet they would be green if you adjusted ph.
PH has nothing to do with lightness of green
Strangely there colour will go greener if I up the E.C
They are running a remidial 14/16 on right tank
14 on left tank
Don't want to up EC yet as left tank got broiled and burnt. Right tank just broiled
Going to make sure roots have recovered before I up it.
This grow may stay on a lower than normal EC.
Upping the EC colour would return in a day. So not bothered about that at the mo. There not showing any deficiencies just a nice shiny light green

If you are too far out of range ph will effect ability to uptake nutrients. Your plants look hungry one way or another.

14 EC? You mean 1.4?
Yes 1.4
PH has never been a problem here
PH range is huge with run offs coming as low as 4 and readings as high as 9 before it affects the plants.
Used to PH but found over the years there is no need
I use a self PH InG nutrient gets it to around 7 ish
Never had a problem.
They can stay a little hungry for a while
I will up the EC before going into flower

I run 1.3 EC and everything is green.

Humorous us for science bud! I am a little curious..lol at least give us your readings without adjusting it.That would actually be kinda cool to see the data. Don't really care if you adjust it or not actually rooting for you on that one, but I would like to see the data. I also understand to each their own some people have s*** to do and yada yada so.. thanks for the show!

Here's the thing
Have been giving the readings when I change the nutrient
Trouble is don't have to touch it much between fill ups may check the reading to see if it's using Nutrient or water.
Sometimes may have to add water if it's not using nute

Once there up an rocking it is a case of
X amount of nute to X amount of water job done.
Nutrient and water go down pretty evenly
They haven't really started drinking yet
Will take readings each day from now

Nice!! Good sport! Sorry if you feel bullied into it my bad... I'm just a curious fellow don't really have intentions behind it, but I'm sure others will. Seem like a nice chap even if you don't ph your plants and cut your leafs.
