Hello. I need a little info about my runoff. My girls are on day 30 of flowering. I fed them last night and took my first reading since they were flushed a few weeks ago. I fed them the solution at 1050 PPM and a pH of 6.1. The run off of the pH on 2 plants were 6.1, and on 1 plant, it was 6.0. The PPM's run off ranged from 630-700 PPMs. can anyone explain the runoff PPM's being lower. Is that fine. Any knowledge would be appreciated.

I'm not sure why you are concerned about your runoff ppm.:?
If you are growing in soil you are wasting your time. A lot of people pH their runoff when growing in soil. I find it unreliable but to each his own. To answer your question, the ppm may be lower because the plant and growing medium may be absorbing some of the nutes. That's my theory anyway......:weed:
