Hi folks, little confused.....
I am using ProMix BP FLX it it a neutral peat based medium. It holds the water so well that I think I might of created a problem. When I check the runoff after two water only feedings its reading way high 3500 ppm , you can taste the salts. PH is fine at 6.5 The plants are thriving, I'm just trying to prevent a problem.
I am on my second week of flowering GSC auto

Should I flush them or let them be?

i don't grow in soil but i can point you to a few who do @RustyStarbuck72 @hope2grow @Mañ'O'Green
 
That has dolomite lime and can skew any runoff numbers. Try a run-off of the fresh soil and see what you get.

I personally do not use run-off as a measure of anything. what you need to do is feed at the proper input rates and forget runoff. What have you put into the pot?
