Soil ph changes over time. The best way to fix it in soil is to make sure you are getting 20 % runoff every time you water. You can also adjust feed ph to 6.8 to speed up the process slightly. Happy growing.

Forgot to alter pHHi I forgot to alter the pH. I already have some issues (I think pH? Check picture). What’s worse, overwatering or too high pH? Do I need to flush ASAP or wait till next watering cycle? The pH of the water I used is 7,7 and I have organic potting soil so is it a big deal or not?Feeding. Deficiences

Unbalanced PH Water on LeavesI just sprayed my plants with an IPM solution but forgot to PH balance my water…I went back and drenched the leaves again with plain ph balanced water to get rid of the ph unbalanced water. Is this ok or did I make a major mistake? I took photos of the ingredients I used.Leaves. Other

How Much Nutrients to use during the flowering phase without burning the roots or frying the leaves ?How much Nutrients is too much Nutrients? Meaning using flowering enhancing nutrients too much over time can either fried the leaves or burned the roots How much is too much ? Does it depend on the strain? Why can some strains handle lots of nutrients and others cannot ?Week 4

Are we Twins? would we make a good couple? who are we lol?Essentially is the same nutrient correct? From my understanding, a PK booster is usually thrown in the middle of the flower cycle for about 2 - 3 wks. I've also noticed it rarely cut out. Can/would you mix the product lines? what weight differences have you seen with use?Buds. Other

Co2/Temps/NutrientsI pushed the temps up and got the VDP on point w/co2.
Now since the plant is drawing a lot more water up through the roots, I've noticed very slight nute burn on the newest leaf growths.
Do you have to drop PPM's as temps rise? I thought it was the other way around?5y ago

Burnt plants a bit with nutes for growing. When to start giving them nutes for blooming? (autoflowers)I probably burnt my plants by giving them too much nutes for growing. (plagron alga grow)
Stopped giving the nutes for a week, but they're still showing yellow tips.
When would It be okay to start giving them nutes for the blooming phase? (plagron alga bloom)
