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! 🤟😜

3 part ph perfect nutrients and ratios
Can anybody advise on the nutrients I’m using, I realise I should be lowering nitrogen levels so can I put say 2ml micro 1ml grow and 4ml bloom per litre now? Thought I had nute burn but I let the roots dry out a bit much so the tips higher up have burnt a little.

Calendário Plagron
Hey, if I follow this calendar, will I get some good results? My last harvests were my first ones, I'm not sad, the flowers came out beautiful and tasty. But the buds weren't hard and dense, I used Biobizz fertilizers. But no NPK supplements, was that what I was missing?

Ph water in soil, does it matter?
Does the PH in the water matter if using biobizz soil and nutrients? Leaving the tap water overnight to evaporate the chlorine of course... heard so many things online but does anyone know for sure? Cheers

When to start flushing
Should I stop adding nutrients and just give the plants plain water now? I'm in Week 8 and many of the FastBuds Pineapple Express Auto grows I've seen harvest around week 10. Would switching to just water be a sufficient flush?

Should I add nutes? If so, with my Fox Farm soil, how early should I be adding said nutes? Fox Farm seems to say everything i need is already in the soil..
My 5 gal cloth pots are layered with approx 1/3 Cali Super Soil (bottom) and 2/3 Fox Farm Ocean Forest (top). I assume when the roots reach the super soil all nutes will be supplied. But what happens until then? Should i provide nutes until they reach the SS and if so what kind?
