Cheap PH down?
smokeyspartacus
started grow question 5y ago
Is it just me or is GHE/AT PH Down very diluted? I started with gGrowth Technology which is 81%. TA PH down has nothing stated on the bottle... What do you use as the cheapest way to get PH down in circulating hydroponics/DWC?

Not sure if it works with hydro/DWC but citric acid is a cheap pH down. It’s water soluble so I’d imagine it be ok. Worked great for my organic grows.

Demineralized water to finish
Hey folks! Got a question about giving fresh water to finish. I bought some demineralized water to give them for the last week. The problem being I can't seem to get a reading on ph. I'm assuming because there's no ions in the water . Is this stuff ok to use opposed to distilled?

Nitrogen toxicity mid-flower
So I overfed during veg and now my plant has nitrogen toxicity. Besides making leaves super dark, crunchy, and yellow it has also made my buds pistils curl and brown way too early. I’ve been flushing often with water. Is she a lost cause or should I ride it out for 4 more weeks?

Ideal reservoir temp
What is the ideal reservoir water/nutrient temp? I have a 25g reservoir that is outside. I purchased a heater for it, but what is the perfect temp. My tent holds at 68-72 degree Fahrenheit. I’m assuming similar to the ambient tent temp but thought I’d ask.

EC and PPM
I read about EC and PPM. I have a meter that reads both, and it says my PPM is too low, and the number it gives for EC is like 1200 and the charts all have numbers like 1.2-2. WTF. I ran out of pH strips but I know my pH is good, I used distilled water. What's everyone's thought?

Diamond black vs. Diamond nectar by GHE
Hi everyone, I've read Diamond nectar is very good. But I noticed there is a very similar product from the same brand: diamond black. I was wondering what's the difference, and which one would be the best in an indoor grow in coco with high frequency fertigation. Thanks
