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-level and ppm-level
Does this ph-level 61.1 and ppm level 1676 look fine? If ppm is too low, how can I increase or decrease it?

i don't know where the fault lies, my plant is growing too slowly and the leaves on the buds are deformed. The last time I tested the soil pH was 7.5 even though I watered at 6.5 and the runoff ppm was 1800. Can anyone tell me what I should do now to make the plants grow well.

Ensuring nutrient solution isn't too strong for coco
Is there a way I can make sure my nutrient solution isn't too strong while I save for an EC meter? Should I just go off CANNA's chart and use the lower values? If anybody could point me in the right direction or show me a good canna coco chart that has worked for them, please do!

我的女孩怎麼了,這個是生病了嗎?還是太多的餵食?
在他長出第二對葉子的時候這樣的現象就出現了,但是只有一邊有葉子,我查了相關資料顯示這是菸草鑲嵌病毒(Tobacco mosaic virus;TMV) 我覺得挺像的。但是不是很確定,我該繼續等幾天嗎?還是把葉子切掉。 誰可以告訴我解決方法,希望他可以度過生長期,因為他是自動開花,每一天都很重要。

How to make stronger smell and flavour in DWC grows?
Hi guys. Just harvested my second ever harvest, and 2nd time with DWC. Using HPS, then CMH for last 2 weeks I'm really happy with buds, but the smell is a little less intense that I would like. I have used Cannaboost, which is supposed to increase flavour but I want more! :)

Why is my PH possessed?
Why is my PH refusing to go down from 9s to 6 unless I quadruple the normal amount of apple cider vinegar to 12ml? Normally 3ml does the job. This week, ml somehow doesn't move the needle. The EC is a little higher, could that be it? The RO is normal starting at 8, this week 10+

Anyone know about biobizz TopMax? (Just read this)
Once the solution is made, do not add pH up/down to correct the pH. Firstly, peat based mixes are buffered for pH so this is not necessary. Secondly, the acid will instantly begin to break down the organic matter in the solution, something that you want to happen naturally in the

FOAM in the DWC tank

a friend wants to start with his first plant. Unfortunately, he doesn't have much budget. And through the Corona eruption, he has to work with what he has. As soon as he has the money, he absolutely wants to switch to the right additives. Is it possible to use one of these.
