I think there's a misconception going on concerning ph. The word is RO should always have a certain ph level but I don't thank that's the case.
From my research gases in the water affect ph which causes the variations between 2 different users "RO". When I mix Jack's and calnitrate to 1200EC my ph is around 5.2 yet most report theirs much higher. PITA I know but there's always something....

Btw, awesome thread!

1200 ec?!?! Assuming you mean ppm. At what scale. That would also make a difference in terms of final ph. 1200 ppm at 500 or 700 scale. Would it not?

I have been running jacks and calnit. I'm 35 days in flower. I'm running equal part by volume. My buds have zero smell and very little trics. I also have plants in soil with Botanicare cns 17. The plants in soil are frosty and stinky. So what am I doing wrong. Feeding jacks at 1050 and 110p

What system?
What strain? Same as those in soil? Soil at day 35 as well??
How do you measure you're jacks and cal-nit?... I just recently switched to equal parts volume after mixing by weight and having problems

I'm assuming 1050 is in reference to ppms, what sacle? or better yet just ec (it's a universal measurement) what is 110p in reference to?

looking at the keyboard i think they hit "p" instead of "0" which could mean they are running 1050-1100 ppms maybe? at what scale? who knows that could mean. possibly anywhere from 1.5-2.2 ec

Plants are In Coco. 1050 to 1100 ppm. .5 scale. Fire og and LSD. new strains to me but a friend has runem before

[xxxstr8edgexxx]

so that would be 2-2.1 e.c. roughly? im no expert but that seems pretty high for coco.

They have a tiny bit of nute burn on the leaves. They always look super light green. That's a sign of hunger. I guess I'll take them down to 850. They did so great in veg at that strength.it seems like some thing is missing from jacks

3-2-1? 3-1.8-1? by weight volume? whats your exact recipe how do you dissolve it etc.?

What's your runoff look like? Nute burn but hungry... lockout maybe. How about flushing with low nutes.
Have you run coco before... It's not the jack's unless you got a bad batch, a lot of us are using it with success. Like str8 asked what's your recipe?
