So on day 7 of my plants being outside and realising i needed to drop the ph immediately, i went with the natural solution of adding white vinegar to the water. Mainly as i can't spend any money at the moment to go to the shop for a bottle of ph down, and also as i do want to grow them as naturally as possible.... So two days later, today is day 9 and into the second week, you can see the photo, i think they do look better already but honestly not sure what else i can do and really don´t want to ruin them! I will have to make sure not to water to often and keep a close eye on them! Any advice very welcome!

Am I right to understand that i do not need to put any nutrients in the water until my plants are about 3 weeks old? I have BioBizz on standby for when the time is right (BioGrow, BioBloom, and TopMax). Any advice from growers that are familiar with these products? Thanks x

I think it would depend on your soil. If it has it then you would wait. I use fox farm happy frog and I usually don't add any nutes until the end of veg if I veg 2+ months. And autos are usually sensitive to them so go light.

With Autoflowers that is about correct but it depends on what substrate you use to grow them. When growing in soil, you should be fine without nutrients until flower. That is unless the plant starts to tell you otherwise, eg. Lower leaves start to yellow, deficiencies appear, etc. When growing in soiless mediums like coco coir you will need to feed from the get go, lightly but much more frequently. Autoflowers in general don’t like nutrients as much compared to photo period strains. Of course that varies from genetic to genetic but is a common trend among autos.

@KeepinItReal, there are so many different things people like or do,,it can be a personal thing,,I personally do not buy special ferts etc ,,I mix molasses, peroxide and ferts in a bottle and use some of it every 2-4 waterings a cap full with the water that day,,only once i scrape a small amount of ASA(aspirin) and scrape a small amount of calcium off a calcium table and desolve that in the bottle after shes a few weeks old..but thats just me..I show it and a bottle of it in my diary..

@Sweet_Seeds, thanks a lot! I am a total newbie so any tips or advice very much welcome! I am just about to put some new photos on my diary, i had some white leaf tips on one of them, and another started going paler green, checked again the ph and realised i needed to lower it as the water was about 6.5 - 7...😢 checked the run off and it was the same so i added a bit of white vinegar to the water, until ph reading 5.5 - 6.....the plants look like they appreciate it, they look stronger than the other day si i am hoping the colour improves too and they get better!

@CheckThoseTrichs, do you think they will be ok now that i think i have sorted the ph? Worried that i have damaged them too early and they might not recover? Thanks x
