Hey guys, I'm wondering if you can just dissolve tomato paste in water since it has quite a bit of potassium.

Weather the plant could use it is a different story that's why we use nutes for plants there ready to be absorbed by the plant

Agree with shock, way too acidic to try. If you need a natural potassium boost try banana peel tea, seems to work for a lot of people. Good Luck!

Tomatoes paste? Like the canned shit? Or do you mean tomato feed? Tomato paste....I mean sure it has potassium, but also acid...tomato feed would probably work later in flower if watered down enough

I'm starting to get algae on my surface perlite. Been feeding ~100ml twice a day, is this too much? I've also been keeping tubs of water inside my tent for humidity. Could this be affecting it? I'm just scared and confused 😂

Water and nutrients
I water every other day. So far I have been using nutrients to bring my water up to the proper EC (ppm). It is always a VERY small amount (1/2 tsp). I haven't noticed any signs of toxicity but I wanted to hear your opinion of my approach and changes that I could/should make

Nutrient lock out?
Well watered my plants with great value drinking water. Ph 4.11. Didn't check ph until week 3. Currently upping it to 6.5 after I found the issue. Does this look like nutrient lock out? They were in root Riot starter plugs. And I fed the some clonex and great white microbs.

Coco grow: the EC of my runoff is consistently 0.2 mS/cm lower as what goes in (1.1 in at this time, runoff is at 0.9). Also, PH of runoff is at 5.8, while 6,5 goes in. Is this a problem? What causes this? Its been 8 days since germination and they look healthy.

Advanced nutrients in soil runoff
Advanced nutrients in soil. Hey, so I'm using advice nutrients line (sensi) in biobizz soil (light and all mix 50/50.) Anyway my runoff is always 5.8PH I'm guessing this is due to the PH perfect technology. My soil is buffered to 6.2PH and I always PH up to 6.3/6.4...

Will excessively aerating and circulation change the PH?
I have a reservoir which holds my nutrients until they need to be used. Recently I had added in a pump for circulation in addition to my air stone. Since then my solution has been rising to over 7 within a few hours. I adjust back down and it goes back up again? What the heck?

what are your recipes of super soil, what kind of KNF methods do you use ?
Does anybody make their own super soil? What are your homemade recipe? I think the future of cannabis growing is all about micro organisms and the soil health and I think korean natural farming, bokashi tea, and super soil are natural methods of getting a good quality of bud imho

PPM question
My PPM using pure rain water is around 70, what I read online is that I need to have somewhere close to 200/400 (EC 0.4) for seedlings, 450/650 (EC 0.9) for later veg and so on. My question being how do I get these numbers? Just keep adding nutrients?
