Whit on fabric pot
WelshGrowerstarted grow question 4 years ago
Hi there, i have some white stuff on the fabric pot and was hoping someone could point me out to what it is and if it will do any harm to the plants? I'm thinking it could be a salt buildup or something like that? Please advise, thanks

That’s normal for a fabric pot , it’s just the salt from nutrients. Solution wash off after use.

just mineral buildup. heck, i got a little algea on an old one about to be harvested in a week or two, LOL... looks fine.
it's fabric, so as the water evaporates, the solutes are left behind. I wouldn't try to rinse it off while it is in use - probably cause something whacky in that local area nutrient-wise. Ignore it.

Yes you are wasting expensive nutes washing out the sides of your planters long before it reaches the bottom. Nute companies love those crappy sacks. Got to use more to reach the bottom so more money in their pockets. If you start seeing little brown spots on your leaves you probably have dry areas in your root system.

It's Calcium buildup probably from hard water, that or salts. Do you leave your water out for 24 hours before watering with it? or use reverse osmosis? or even a carbon filter? if not these are good solutions to that problem.. Hope this helps! Happy growing! 👊

My tent is 32"x32"x63". I've only ever done one plant at a time. This time I am attempting to share the tent with a hydroponic grow in a 5-gallon bucket. I normally grow soil in a 5-gallon smart pot. Should I use a 3-gallon instead? Last grow the 1 hydro filled the tent.Week 2

Encouraging heightI just raised my 900w led to 39". Feeding every day about .3 liter. It looks like she will have 8 main colas after the 4-way top but I'm concerned about height. Should I wait for 4 nodes on the new colas and then switch to flower maybe? Thanks for the great advice as always!

Honey for root growth.Wondering if anyone has ever used honey to promote rooting when planting germinated (cracked) seeds.
Read that honey helps as a natural root enhancer. Only tried once so far as a test but seems not to hurt the seed, if dont do anything else. Wondering if anyone else does this?Roots. Other
