Over or under watering?
Tubington9started grow question 5y ago
I’m doing my first grow (diary in my profile) 12 days into veg my plants seem smaller than ones ive seen same strain. Im giving them both 1 litre (2-500ml feedings 9 hours apart) per day on a 18-6 light cycle, am I over or under watering at this point? (Plant 2 had issues early)

Hello! I looked through your dairy and It looks to me like she has plenty of water. The roots of the plant are designed to seek nutrients and water so when you allow the pot to dry up, the roots spread/grow. A good way to check if she needs water this young is to see if the soil 1-2 inches down is dry...then water, if its still moist shes good. My green crack is a good example of a smaller plant. Good luck growing!

1L a day is bit to much right now. Pick up your pots, are they heavy as f*ck? If they are super light then its time to water them. If they are heavy then let them dry out for a few days. Little seedlings like that won't require much.

Orange leaves getting worseWhat the fuck is going on with this plant? I spotted some nute burn last week so I got advice off here and flushed it out. Once it needed watered again I went with half the recommended nute dosage and now it looks like it’s getting worse. What the hell can I do?

Nematodes in combination with fertilizerI ordered nematodes (SF) today, and i read something in an article about how they can't handle nitrogen. Should i worry about their effectiveness(if there is any at all) as i want to start feeding around the same time as using the nematodes?5y ago

Potential overfeedingHi, this is my first grow and I'm running synthetic nutes in a biobizz light mix soil. After today's feeding, the run off came with 4000ppm when I usually get 2500-3000. I hear that you're supposed to get that when using part organic soil but 4000 seems problematic. Any ideas?Feeding. Other

Bad ph water, it bounces like a pogo stickMy city water supply sucks. The ph rises and falls in such a wide range that it is difficult to keep up to what it needs to level out the ph. I have seen 5.8 up to 8.9 just in the last month.
Is there a cheaper method than using the standard PH down?Week 8

Does Liquide phenol red work to check the water PH?Liquide Phenol red is the cheapest alternative ive got. It should range between 6 and 8. But it say s for uses at pools and hot tubs, should be more or less accurate and get the job done right? As i can easily see diferences between 6.0 and 7.0? Thank you! :DFeeding. Other

Watering question - Volume?Currently doing my 1st grow and had some watering questions. I see a lot online about when to water which seems pretty easy to understand but I have trouble finding the amount of water. Is it based on the size of the pot? or the size of the plant? or both maybe? How much?Week 1

We have decalcification machine. Should I add Calmag right from the start? How much? (Autoflower in mostly Biobizz Allmix)We have a decalcification machine (natrium based), so I have low magnesium/calcium. People say my soil is low in cal/mag. Should I add Biobizz Calmag on my first watering?(50% of recommendation for autos?) This one looks already droopy, doesn't it? Think I need to water soon.
