started grow question 4 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.

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?

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

Fert Switch Veg/Flower Timing
When and how do you switch from Canna Vega to Canna Flores? Feel free to share any tips. What are your "signals"? Do you suggest a hard switch like in the Canna schedule, or do you prefer transitioning by mixing the fertilizers? If you need more info, please check the diary.

pH irrigation / runoff
Why is the pH of the runoff so much higher than the pH of the irrigation water? Is the runoff or the irrigation water more important to consider? Canna Terra Professional Plus and BioBizz pH- The pH lowering effect seems to vanish in the fertilizer solution after one to two days

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.

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?

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
