answered grow question 6y ago
Organic Root Stimulator by B.A.C. is good. Don't know if it's available in Canadia, but is recommendable, if you can get it. Keeps drippers clean too. In fact, all their products are pretty good. Cheers.

PH testing
Well, during week 3 i realised the importance of PH testing.How can someone test PH runoffs where there is no water coming out? My plant is small and the water quantity i give is so low that there is nothing coming out of my 3 gal pot.

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

High ppm in drainage
I flushed coco two times with 8-10 litres with CalMag (200 ppm) and it does not help. You can see in my comments to the last weeks of the diary that it doesn't matter how much ppm I water the plant, it is always 2-3 times more ppm in drainage.What should I do?

BioThrive Fertilizer Water pH & PPM
I tested my BioThrive Bloom+CaMg fert water for the first time ever today; I've been feeding 4.5 pH & 340 ppm fert water solution; Soil pH is 6.7-ish per the Rapitest meter. Should I add pH up solution to make the fert water 6.2pH? What if the soil pH increases over 6.7?

Germination error
I've made an error while germinating my beans. I've mixed CANNA rhizotonic at a ratio of 4ml per 500 ml of water by mistake. Soaked the coco pellets and left them In the proprgator. I use half the ratio. Are they doomed? What should I do? Thanks

I've been feeding 3 times/day at an EC = 1300 and PH = 6.2. Runoff this morning was ~700 on average. The plants appear to be happy but I'm worried that I'm underfeeding them and its slowing down growth. Should I increase EC? Should I start feeding more often?

ph Problems
I have always used tap water in a big bucket that I scoop from to water. I am using Root Farm phDown. The tap water is 7.6 to 8. If I ph the bucket the ph rises again within a day. Is it Root Farm or should I ph only the amount I need per watering? Do other ph down's do this?

Autoflower PPM Requirements - DWC
I have found this plant's water/nutrient intake is equal at 350ppm right now - end week 5. I am beginning to feel after several auto grows that the ppm requirement with GH nutrients is WAY less than what the web serves up? I doubt I can push this one beyond 500ppm? (0ppm water)

The problem in plants when I supplying CO2
Hello! After adding CO2, I noticed problems on the leaves of my plants. Grow in coco+perlite, water with 1100ppm solution, 1000ppm co2 in air. Drain from the right 1400ppm and 1800 from the right. Is it related to co2 and irrigation system?

What nutrients to get?
Hi! I want to buy additional nutrients which can be used for both soil+hydro. So far I got my eyes on Ghe's Flora Micro, FloraGro, FloraBloom and Calcium Magnesium. The store also has Hesi Root-complex which I believe is good. Any other important nutrients I'm missing? Thanks!

I stopped giving my plants Plagron Silic Rock from mid last week (week 13, week 5 flower). Can anybody tell me if I did right to cut it in flower or does anybody has experience using this nute until the end of their grow? I think this nute is just for veg and early flower.

Calcium in tap water
Is 95mg/L calcium too much in tap water? (It's probably a little lower than that, since that's exit measurement from the waterworks.) I haven't seen any signs of acute calcium toxicity, but I'm worried about buildup.
