started grow question 5y ago
Is it safe to lower the water PH with freshly squeezed lemon juice? Tap water is at 7.5, I am thinking of adding lemon juice to bring it down to 6. 5.

Coco grow: the EC of my runoff is consistently 0.2 mS/cm lower as what goes in (1.1 in at this time, runoff is at 0.9). Also, PH of runoff is at 5.8, while 6,5 goes in. Is this a problem? What causes this? Its been 8 days since germination and they look healthy.

Is it time to start flushing?
Is it time to start flushing, and prepping to harvest in a week or two? Or should I allow some more flowering time and nutrient salts? I'm thinking flush, but eager for opinions. The hairs on all plants seem majority red/orange.

Are these pH pens reliable?
This pH pen sucks ass! I've purchased calibration liquid at 7.0 and have done calibration for both pens, and prepared another 4.0 solution. one reads 3,8 the other one reads 4,3. My range is already 5.5 - 6.1 = 0.6. How am I supposed to deal with this?😡

Milorganite- has anyone tried it on cannabis?
Has anyone ever used Milorganite on their grow? I have used it on my lawn many years and it turns the lawn a beautiful green. The best part about Milorganite is if you pour a lot on your lawn it does not burn your lawn at all. I know some people use it in their vegetable beds.

Nutirents for hard water
Question regarding the correct fertilizer amount. Advanced Nutrients. If my water already has a high EC of 0.75 I use less base fertilizer (Bloom A+B). But do I also reduce the amount of additives like Voodoo Juice and Sensizym, etc? Is there anyone here with experience with AN?

Potassium soil with neem oil and kelp extract as a foliar spray on seedlings
I have doubts about applying some foliar sprays. I've used Neem Oil + Potassium Soap with some kelp liquid extract, together without any issues. The benefit of using it now is obvious, but, are my seedlings too small to handle foliar sprays? Could I harm them if I apply this mix?
