answered grow question 5y ago
I think that would be more bro science than anything, unless they are composting the apples and such with the soil i don't see it doing a whole lot other than attracting insects... Composted organic matter is the way to go.

How early can you give it nutrients?
How early can I really give it nutrients? I've read when the plant has 3 or 4 sets of leaves but in my produce-growing experience I just give it a little nutrient once it forms its first set or second if I'm lazy.

Thoughts on adding GH FloraBloom 0-5-4
1st time grower here- Good idea to add this nute to my almost 4 week old autoflower top-down? I'm using a wicking tub with ocean forest potting mix, that has a layer of fertilizer more rich in nitrogen. They seem happy, would hate to overdo it. Haven't watered them in 2 weeks.

Cal-Mag question
My general hydroponics nutrients have pretty clean & clear instructions, but the cal-mag, I’m unsure how much to use? Still just leaving the seedling stage this week, when I’m using 0.6ml/L of the GH nutrients, how much cal-mag should I use at this stage, and full on veg?

First grow- bonemeal timing
Howdy folks!! This is my first grow & I’m planning on using bonemeal during flower, but I’m not sure when I should start using it or if I even need to? I make my own compost and things seem to be going great now, but not sure it’s enough through flower.

A question for the bag growers. I was underwatering and too often so started watering until getting some runoff. A problem I have is that before the water flows out the bottom it starts leaking from along the sides. making it difficult to judge how much is actually runoff.

Switching to flowering nutrients (autoflower)
Just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to when I should start switching these critical purple autoflowers to flowering nutes? As I understand it should be a few weeks after preflowers start? Hard to tell when vertical growth slows when doing LST. This is my first grow ever!

Nitrogen toxicity?
Do you think this is Nitrogen toxicity? I'm going in soil that has pre-added nuits, so only giving plant water PH6.5 Considered raising PH to 7 to reduce absorption, or should I just continue and plant may get use to the medium?

Friends, help me understand what the problem of the plant is!!
I can not understand that with plants different tips come most people think that the problem is nitrogen! Others say it's zinc or cal-mag! I can't decide how to properly help the plant! I also thought maybe it's too much blowing inside the box!?

Ec coming out low
Out of my 4 plants, two I am getting a much lower ec reading out of the bottom then what I am feeding in. Should I kick up the nutrients for these two? Does this mean they are not using the nutrients or they are not eating enough?
