answered grow question 5y 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.

How dark is too dark?
Are these looking too green? I’m not seeing any N-tox clawing but they are pretty dark, growth is pretty vigorous and steady though so I don’t know. They are in a pretty rich organic medium.

Thoughts on compost tea?
First time making compost tea, if anyone can think of anything to build on, would appreciate some knowledge. Already have a 4-4-4 mixed in to the coco coir, so I’m making the tea out of 🍅 fertilizer for calcium and molasses for sugar.

When do you stop giving nutrients?
Pictures taken 3 weeks into flowering. Its 3.5 weeks now. Started as pretty basic potting soil, most of the nutrients im sure are gone. When do you switch to just pH corrected water to feed? Thinking 1 more week for my yellowing plants, and less for my very green one. Thoughts?

Runoff pH still climbing!
My runoff PH keeps climbing despite lowering water pH. Plants look great but have red stems. Is it possible that the bottom of my fabric pots are saturated with excess Calcium and Diatomaceous Earth? Thus, raising my runoff PH. Soil meter reads 6.8 though 🤔
