Hi there, In your diary, it said you gave your plant about 3L of water per day.That’s alot my friend.Plants at this age only drink approximately 0.5~1.0L per 24hour.So you should correct your watering schedule.As you are growing in fabric pot, be careful not to leave any dry pockets when you watered.Happy growing... ✌️

Hello xanado18,
Always pour the water slowly in circles. If you pour the water too fast the water will rush to the bottom, which makes the bottom part soaking wet and the top part bone dry.
Good luck with your project, I wish you all the best! 👽

Reusing soil ?For the first time I am thinking of reusing the soil from my last crop (universal soil used once. bionutrients added months ago)
I imagine making a mixture of 50% old soil and 50% new
I'm wondering if I should clean or do anything to my old soil before reusing it?
Advices? 😃☮️

What and why?What are these and do I need to address it?
I'm a couple of weeks in to my grow and just spotted these little critters when I was cleaning my run off saucers. I'm guessing there's more inside the soil are they harmful to my plants?

Mold on soilI used BioBizz LightMix with Monsterbud Mix from Amnesia and some mycorrhiza in the hole of the seed. 3 seeds after 3 days still not germinated in soil. Had foil on top of the pots for humidity. Probably watered a bit too much. What should I do and will my seeds still germinate?

Tip curling on new growthMy largest plant has a lot of curling on the new growth. I have never given any nitrogen nutrients other than very little cal mag with an insignificant amount. I am using natures care mg soil so I don’t know if that’s it but some of the older leaves even have curled edges.

Power went out and came back on last but it tripped the breaker for my tent. Temps dropped down to 61 degrees and there were no lights for about 11 hours. So I guess my question is will she be able to bounce back? I uploaded a pic of how she looked when I found out.
