So these are my girls on day 27 days from seed to soil. so have a couple questions I guess as this is my first grow but first!! The strains are two grape kush’s which are the two pots touching and one strawberry dream (Space around pot) so I’ve been taking run off measurements and my run off ph is 6.3 in FFOF soil but my ppm is around 1800 does this make sense? I’m showing no deficiencies but still worries me. Also when should I flip the lights on these if I only have a 5 ft tent keep in mind I topped these 6 days ago

One thing that new growers often get confused on is organic vs synthetic nutrients. FoxFarm soil has organic nutrients in it. Organic nutrients need to be broken down by microbes before the plant can uptake. Synthetic nutrients are already plant available. To put it simply, that 1800PPM needs to be broken down first by microbes so you will most likely be fine. As the microbes are breaking it down, your plant is then uptaking. When you start feeding bottled nutrients (which are synthetic), PPM becomes much more important because all are plant available. That's when its crucial to stay in the ranges I've specified in the PPM section of my ebook & video course. Please let me know if I need to clarify further or if you have any other questions. When to flip is really your preference. Expect sativa strains to double in height after flipping to flowering. Indica strains will most likely stay squat. Some growers do 30 days in Veg then flip. Other growers will veg their plant longer so it is bigger in size before flipping. Totally your choice.
