Reducing PH idea
BuckMarlstarted grow question 5 years ago
I live in an area where tap water has a ph of around 7.3. Is it detrimental to the plant reducing the ph (approx: 6.1 - 6.5) each time by using distilled vinegar or should i use another method?

You could use lemon, distilled vinegar, or purchase an organic ph adjuster like Earth Juice Natural pH down. Cheers and happy growing!

Vinegar for down is fine it's just not stable, baking soda for up is also fine but adds ec to your mix. Happy growing

Hola, yo uso vinagre blanco de manzana para bajar el ph en la etapa de crecimiento vegetativo. Después, a partir de la pre flora uso PH- con 25% de ácido fosfórico.

I use white wine vinegar, it's what I have to hand. Seems to work just fine... use about 1ml to a bucket of water

Clones: trim the leaves horizontal or no?When you cut a potential clone from the mother. I usually try to have at least 3 nodes, but when the nodes are alternating (why do they alternate sometimes?) VS two leaves stemming on each side of the main stem in a symmetrical style?
I also cut the bottom in a diagonal way why?Week 1

Preflower Faster, Finish Faster (Autos)I am in final flush (DWC) of ILGM Zkittlez Auto, and finished almost a week early (topped at day 20). I have lab-style grow room/cabinet that maintains humidity, nutrients, etc. with little deviation to schedule/plan. Will an auto finish faster if it can get to preflower faster?Week 10
