answered grow question 6y ago
No. You need to drop it to between 6.0-6.5 for soil. Or 5.5-6.0 for Coco or hydro. A pH down solution will be required or you will have lockout issues. Happy Growing! 🤟😜

Transitional flush and its effect on beneficial colonies.
If one is growing in Coco, and using bennies (Mammoth P, Great White), would a flush during transition be detrimental to those colonies, or would it be an irrelevant variable? (Sorry, I have 2 questions just sitting here, might as well use them.)

Are we Twins? would we make a good couple? who are we lol?
Essentially is the same nutrient correct? From my understanding, a PK booster is usually thrown in the middle of the flower cycle for about 2 - 3 wks. I've also noticed it rarely cut out. Can/would you mix the product lines? what weight differences have you seen with use?

PH concern
I've been measuring my nutrients solution PH and it's between 6 and 6.5, but after a couple of days my soul is up to 8. Is this normal? I don't want to overwater trying to take ph down, nor do I want to kill microfungi with acid. Any suggestions?

Is my Amnesia overwatered?
I've been watering until completely dry with this Amnesia, but the leaves look a bit droopy. I've looked at other diaries of this strain and it looks normal but I was curious if anyone thinks I should pull back on watering even further.

Homemade inputs???
What do yall think of my diary? All homemade inputs, I invest literally less than 20 bucks in my inputs in the entire grow. I want to prove to you all that you do not need to drop money on bottled nutes, remember bottles are for babies. Challenge me? Just look at my diary

Spraying plants
I have been feeding the plant with some extra Canna BOOST in the spray and applying directly to all plants and not just the leaves. I have noticed that the tent started smelling less of weed and more like the product. Am I doing it wrong?Is it losing quality? can buds be sprayed?

How much does the fox farm trio affect pH and how much pH up (or down) would be needed for correct pH of a 7.0 gallon water.
Anybody here grow outdoors in soil and use fox farm products? I was wondering if someone could approximate how much 2tbsp big bloom, 2 grow big, 1 tiger bloom would lower a neutral 7.0 gallon of water. I have drops but it's hard to see after adding bb. No meter. No money 4 one.

Nute Advice - Botanicare PBP vs. KIND Full Range (Base Supplements).
Thinking of changing nutes from @Shogun to @Botanicare for next run. Has anyone used the FULL PBP & FULL Kind range and could advise between them (Quality, Yield). Trying to work out the costs and if they're worth it (KIND range looks like £85/grow as opposed to £133 for PBP).
