Fox farm usually runs hot so I wouldn't add nutrients until week 4-6, which autos at that time is usually going into bud cycle.

I have three autoflowers becoming seedlings. I put them under LED light for 16 hours a day. Is that too soon? Days of sunlight is already diminishing.

Overwatered cubes in hydro? Too close to the sun? or effect of having add
Hi All, I have issues with my first hydro grow - i effed up. I think i was too slow in the transfer over in the tank. Light is 200 PPFD, EC at 0.6, and barely added any nutes. Did i manage to overwater some of these plants by having them too close to the net pot?

How much light for a stunned seedling?
If my seedling is stunned, how much light in watts should I give to her? Does it make sense to give minimum light to help recover after over-feeding? (in my case 11w all spectrum bulb). I mean to help her to focus on recovery, not on reserving energy

Maintaining the soil pH
I give pH'ed water, never more than 800ppm and I still always end up with lockouts. I used to not give water untill runoff but now I do. What to do after testing the runoff? It's currently at 6.0 even after a flush with 7.2. Ask many questions I need to know what I'm doing wrong.

Soil recommendation? Typically use Fox Farms Happy Frog but price keeps going up and quality seems much lower, lots of sticks, not mixed well etc
Is there any soil recommendations anyone can make that are good but a less pricey? Dont get me wrong, I love Fox Farm’s, and 38/bag isnt terrible. I’m just curious if anyone has found a more mainstream soil that’s as good of soil. I also think their quality has been worse lately
