Hello everyone. I have a question about TDS readings. I'm putting in a TDS of 726 of Cocotek nutrients. My runoff is only 142. I just transplanted from 1 gallon pots to 7 gallon smart pots. They were root bound. Did the transplant on 5/13. I watered at 727 TDS Today 5/16 and my runoff was 142. Might be a coincidence but my tap water has a TDS of around 140. My plants are not showing any deficiencies. They do seem to be growing slowly. I'm not sure this is my first time in coco. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

How often do you water? Do you water with plain pH every other feeding do you feed every time how close are your lights what kind of Lights give us more info. 7 gallons smart pots pretty large what are you growing trees haha I currently have three large plants in a scrog the plants were probably maybe 5 feet tall when I crammed them down to about 3 feet. And there in 3 gallon smart pots. Not using cocoa but I think these have Stonewool in them. Or grow cubes I would have to check.

Hi Sammy they are under a 1000 watt double ended bulb 4x4x8 tent 30 inches away last time I watered them was Saturday. Then watered them today. I always use nutrients always PH them from 5.8 to 6.2. I flush with 1/4 nutes when runoff ppm gets too high. When they were in the 1 gallon pots my run off ppm were much closer to what was going in but they were root bound at the time. I now see that the 7 gallon pots might be overkill. But it's my first try in coco. I just wanted to know if my ppm was coming out that low if I should up the nutrients. Thanks for the reply sammy
