Am I right waiting longer until feeding for the first time? I heard overfeeding your soil can be very harmful to the roots.

Now is about the time you'll want to add some base nutes. Always start with the lowest dose or 1/2 strength 👍🌱

What nutrients to get?
Hi! I want to buy additional nutrients which can be used for both soil+hydro. So far I got my eyes on Ghe's Flora Micro, FloraGro, FloraBloom and Calcium Magnesium. The store also has Hesi Root-complex which I believe is good. Any other important nutrients I'm missing? Thanks!

Will nutes degrade if left in the sun for a week?
Nutes- If I mix up a gallon batch (fox farm grow big and big bloom) but only use half of that gallon, can I save the rest for the next feeding, which might be a week later? Also, is it ok if the jug is left outside where it will get sun, or will this ruin the nutrients?

Canna boost and autopots
HI! I have a question regarding Canna Boost and autopots. Do you use it in a reservoir? The ph is rising faster in res since I added it. The nutrient solution in res also got cloudy and trays became slimy. Since I use airdromes the ph also rised too much.

I tested the pH of my mediums and they were around 7 so, which I thought is too high so I watered with a 5 pH and I think this has brought the medium down to closer, around 6.5. I also put some worm castings for light top feed. Good ideas? Medium at 7 maybe caused yellowing?

Hello community! I broke 2 branches this week. The first one happened by accident when I was draining the runoff, and the other when I was bending it.
And today I came across a video where the author explains that silica can cause brittleness of branches. Does anyone have experience with silica and have you experienced anything like this? I add potassium silicate with each watering, at a concentration of 15ppm
