started grow question 5 years 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.

FOAM in the DWC tank
Hi guys, yesterday I changed the solution in DWC and today I saw some foam in the tank. I had some ph oscillation and used first ph down and after some silica to raise ph. I guess that could cause that foam, what do you think? Some tips?

To much N?
To much N? Fan and sugar seem darker green thinking I gave them to much N, used all purpose along with powerbloom, I'm thinking of cutting out N completely and relying on 2-8-4 instead for my fast autoflowers. Thoughts? Amnesia haze auto and purple Kush auto fem canuk.

Fertilizante para crecimiento exterior?
Qué fertilizantes me recomiendan para la etapa de crecimiento? He sembrado en tierra normal (la de las macetas) y cuando crezca la transplantaré al huerto (es tierra arcillosa pero la he preparado con humus de lombriz y con tierra de cultivo) he comprado fertilizante Bio Vega.

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.

How much do you feed them extra-PK with Biotabs ?
I use Biotabs : Mycotrex, Bactrex, Orgatrex, Startrex with a light mix soil and light water (0.08 to 0.1 ec). Some people told me I shouldn't put much PK 5-8 because they easily burn. How much and how often would you feed them PK ? I use blumats with plain water in 6.5L pots, thx

Is it sign of pre-flower? Should I add Bud Ignitor?
Hello, is it what I'm thinking about?:P Should I start adding nutrients from 1st bloom week chart? If yes - full dose from begging or partially increase the dose? 2 will be added: Voodoo Juice will come back for 2 weeks and Bud Ignitor. Don't want to miss the proper time for it?

I’m out of BioHeaven
I’m out of Bio-Heaven and I wonder whether it’s worth getting some more, given that I’ll probably flush the plants within a few weeks and only use water then. Plus it’s quite expensive compared to BioGrow, BioBloom or TopMax… Any ideas or maybe an organic substitute? Thanks!

Ik heb enkel nog plagron grow staan en geen bloom meer, nu zijn ze net in bloei. Zou dit zo een groot verschil maken mocht ik tot het einde grow blijven geven. Ik vul dit aan met green sensation en sugar royal. Grtz

Runoff pH still climbing!
My runoff PH keeps climbing despite lowering water pH. Plants look great but have red stems. Is it possible that the bottom of my fabric pots are saturated with excess Calcium and Diatomaceous Earth? Thus, raising my runoff PH. Soil meter reads 6.8 though 🤔
