lowering Water pH
Jardunnystarted grow question 5 years ago
please does anybody know the easiest and simple way to lower the ph in water? i would use them to watering on my soil plant. my filter RO water is in ph 8.5. some said they would use the citric acid to lower the ph, does it would affect the microorganism and nutrient in soils?

citric acid has always worked well for me my ph also around 8.0, i ph my water everytime i water and never had a problem. Its very cheap aswell dont buy the branded ph up or down you will get way more for your money if you but citric acid granules .👍

I think you can buy blended sulfuric acid (battery acid) from ahrdware store and thats really good pH down. Phosphoric acid that's used as pH down in homebrewing should be also easily obtainable pretty cheap and it's safer to use than sulfuric acid.
Many pH - products are phosphoric acid

And yes, if your pH is too low or too high, it will block the plant from absorbing nutrients, even if they are present.

You can use a ph down solution or just white vinegar 😉to lower your ph to 6.5

Plants react to darkness in different wayDuring the night, I have noticed that 2 plants out of 3 stand with normal leaves straight, while 1 has leaves going down during the darkness and when the sun rises, it gets back to normal.

Harvest timeIt's been around 8 weeks since flowering and to me the buds seem ready. However, these white pistils keep appearing and makes me think thank it's not ready. What do you think ? I also started watering just plain water, but i think i should go back to adding nutrients.

Want Dense BudsZatanna is drying and smells great but her buds aren't as dense as I would like or thought they would be based on how they felt before harvest. I know light is a big factor it she was in sunlight for most of the grow. What can I do to get nice tight nugs?

Rusting leaves?What can I do to remedy this? Is it a calcium deficiency? I’ve been adding 5ml of cal/mag to a gallon of water, can I add more? Will the grow dots suddenly release lots of calcium? I’ve also top dressed with natures living soil flower power and worm castings.

HILFE! Zu hohe Feuchtigkeit!Ich bin in Woche 7.
Um für genug Kühlung zu sorgen, muss ich im Anbauraum das Fenster geöffnet lassen.
Bei dem schwülen Wetter steigt die Feuchtigkeit durch die Zuluft bis auf 70%.
Kann mir jemand einen guten Luftentfeuchter empfehlen? Oder gute "Lifehacks"?

Is it time to harvest?Hi there. Here are photos of a shiva skunk auto from sensi seeds. I planted this plant around mid May (can't remember) I couldn't take care of it as well as I should have but here's what stage it is at today.
It seems to me that I should wait a little longer to harvest.
