I would start using nutes at this stage. But it depends on your soil mix too. I water every 2 to 3 days. And feed, feed, feed, water, water etc. Or something similar, don't nute them every time though. 🌱👍

Probably time to start notes. I always start using 1/4 to 1/3 the recommended amount. It's easier to add more if you need to.

PK13/14
Next week I will start the PK13/14 week but 2 out of my 9 plants are a bit behind (about a week max). I have been feeding the same to all of them. Can I give them the same food with the PK13/14 even if they're not as developed? What should I do?

Is it time to start flush?
Is it good time to start flushing? Trichomes look like they are almost 100% milky. Leaves started to turn yellow and plants are drinking slightly less water, which I assume is sign that plants are taking nutrients from fan leaves rather than roots.

Maintaining pH in Aerogarden tank
When feeding plants, the pH will increase after feeding (e.g. go from 5.8 to 6.5 overnight), but start to dive after about 4 days (go from 6.2 to 5). Should I be feeding the plants around the time the pH takes a dive or just maintain pH until next weekly feeding?

Switching to bloom nutes and photoperiod changes?
When should I start giving bloom nutrients and stopping the veg nutrients? Also can I switch my light cycle to 24hrs to increase the temps and maximise my yield? Or will this mess with the plants?

New DWC setup, pH ppm rising, water lowering. Should I top with fresh water and pH or wait to see if it is relatively stable first?
I've attached the first few days of measurements since the roots hit the water. I take measurements every 24 hours and the backslash separates bucket 1/2. Does it looks like I need to top up already or should I wait for a more dramatic change? Thanks everyone!

Hi. Is it worth putting my 5 in plastic pots into their fabric pots ?? After all the advice I’m going to try doing one day where I feed them, next day light watering, 3rd day, water to run off then start again. Strange because when I didn’t feed for 3 days, they came on better

When to start nutrients with Fox Farms soil?
I’m using fox farms soil. I have Humboldt Nutrients ‘Grow’ and ‘Bloom’ liquid to add when the time is right. Considering the value of the soil in the first place, when should I start the nutes and at what strength per gallon of water? Been trying to research- nothing is clear.

Fox Farm Soil Feeding Schedule
I have a question about the FoxFarm Soil Feeding Schedule. I have the three-part system: Big Bloom, Grow Big, & Tiger Bloom. But the feeding schedule lists a bunch of othe products as well are those supposed to be used in conjunction with the basic system or separately?

Filtered Water (BRITA) VS. Tap Water? Which do you use/prefer? I've always use filtered water for my girls but I'm worried it might be overkill. These filters aren't cheap and sometimes I have to sit and wait forever if the pitcher isn't already filled up. Thanks for the help!
