I have a question about soil pH, what should it be? Should I start with soil around 6.5 pH? Currently it's 7ish.
So thermostat switch has arrived :), installed it, and set target temperature to 23C. Have read the night time temp should be a degree less but am growing Autos on 20/4 light cycle. Is it worth lowering the temperature for 4 hrs? More to the point, will I be disciplined enough to change the target temp every day...... No, probably not!
Having a go at LST on Big Yield. Stuck some wire in the soil and bent it over. Will see how she fares.
My companion plant is showing signs of life. Got little seedlings :)
Been looking at other diaries, how come people's seedlings are like trees by week 2???! Mine is like 2 inches....:(
@tomatoGrower, they shouldn't be getting killed by the lights what are you using is it a led light and in the natural environment they live in warm boggy conditions they require to be moist at all times since the aquariums people use to grow them with t5 bulbs I would imagine it to be hotter than your grow room I would say if you water your cannabis plants say every other day you would probably have to water the carnivorous plants everyday the best way I find to do it is put trays with water underneath and they will take what they need oh and keep the fan on during the night unless it's your lights go off with it
@tomatoGrower, It will be fine they are naturally grown under a t5 the problem is they love to be fairly wet as usually they are boggy plants it will eventually start feeding it will produce a nice colour inside of the cup and pests are then intrigued it's hard to tell with that carnivorous plant as it is a closed cup plant best way to tell if it's feeding usually another will sprout once it has eaten so if you get new growth it's already feeding I have loads of varieties of them I love them very educational also usually give me a great amount of seeds each year.
@Ilovemyplants, cheers, wondered what they were called. Still waiting for them to start chomping on something....😳💤. Think my lights might be too overbearing for them 😟
