I wouldn't worry about it, the "Flora Bloom" should have enough cal/mag in it to get her through until your parcel arrives.

Tds of water is 490. Is that a problem.
Hi Gromies. I finally got a TDS meter and my water is 490. That seems higher than average. Will this cause potential issues with growing.

Hi. Is it worth putting my 5 in plastic pots into their fabric pots ?? After all the advice I’m going to try doing one day where I feed them, next day light watering, 3rd day, water to run off then start again. Strange because when I didn’t feed for 3 days, they came on better

Small plants, 3 gallon pots, and Pro Mix HP
Hi all, I've just moved baby's from solo cups to 3 gallon pots. I'm using Pro Mix HP. I know it's best to water until about 20% runoff with Pro-Mix HP, but giving these little guys ~5 litres each seems crazy, but I also don't want a big buildup. Been there.

How many weeks left? Auto
Is it too soon to flush it? It's on week 12 and I was supposed to harvest 3 weeks ago. This week the stigmas were getting brown so I flushed it. Is it premature? How many weeks do you think I have left? It's got spider mites problems but I'm fighting every day. Thank you! 😘

General Nutrient Schedule question
More a general question though specifically for growing in soil. Should you add nutrients proactively at certain stages of the lifecycle? Or wait until the plant asks/needs them? Or is it dependent on other factors like soil composition or growing style?

If my compost pile has bugs, will my compost tea transfer bug eggs to my soil in an indoor grow?
I started a compost heap in the heat outside and added kitchen waste (fruit, veggies, fan leaves, egg shells, leaves). The heap has a lot of bug activity but far less since i put it in the heat. Is it safe to brew compost tea or will i transfer bug eggs to my soil?

Which NPK Ratio for autoflowers?
what npk ratio is good? if i only use the ph perfect micro,grow and bloom it will give a ratio of 4-3-8. if i add B52,Big Bud,Nirvana and overdrive i get a ratio of 7-10-20.. if i only add overdrive i get a ratio of 5-8-12 which seems better in my opinion then adding them all in.
