Go slow on how much you give them. Overfeed and your harvest will suffer. A little underfed is always the best way to go for big buds. Cheers

Mid flower flushHey guys :) Have you ever done mid-flower flushing and if yes, how did it work out? Gonna let the soil dry completely and then water nutes again. Could the pH being buffered to 7.10 (shit soil) be the reason for the yellowing leaves or does the plant need more or less of somethng6y ago

Foliar sprayI want to introduce some epsom salt foliar spray for Penelope and two clones I have in veg at the moment. From what I understand around 200-250 PPM is a good range. What is optimal PH for foliar sprays. How often can it be used?
Or what can I use as a habitual spray?Leaves. Other

Watering practice okay?When I water, I run 2 gallons of Ro water through every plant. I let them sit and drain for about an hour then I proceed to water them again, but this time with nutes (1100 ppm/6.4 ph). Let them drain, then they go back into the tent. Is that a waste or not? I have no issue.6y ago

Moldy molasses okay for compost tea/compost tea storageThe new container of molasses I bought has mold growing in it. For baking that would be a throw away, but I am curious if that is still usable for making teas. I have seen some soils that add tricoderma and others, just curious? Also can a tea be stored for a week after brewing?Week 9
