From what I see it looks light and fluffy and not over watered. Should be perfect for a seed to take off in. Best of luck with your grow!

Soilless PH window specific peat/coco/perlite mixOk I need the nail in the coffin guys. I’m using Fafard Root Factory RF C8. Picture shows ingredients. What is my ideal PH window for this type of mix?
I’m also about to transplant. I normally just fill a pot, sprinkle Dynomyco, drop plant, fill in and water. Is this correct?Setup. Substrates

White mold?My smart pot is turning white at the bottom. There also appears to be roots trying to pop through. I put rocks between the pot and plate for air. I have one blade of grass and a tiny weed popping up, so conditions at the top of the pot are okay. Should be worried?6y ago

Optimal pH for solution, when growing in 70% Promix BX, 30% perlite.I'm having trouble finding reliable info regarding what to pH my nute solution to, I read that some like to look at it as hydro (technically soilless), and others view it as soil (due to being preloaded). So 5.5 - 6 or 6 - 6.5? HELP have done full grow using 5.5-6, peep the grow.Week 1

Soil recommendation? Typically use Fox Farms Happy Frog but price keeps going up and quality seems much lower, lots of sticks, not mixed well etcIs 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 latelySetup. Substrates

Moss in 2nd weekHey everyone,
What should be the next course of action as moss has grown on the plants in the past two days (and it seems likely that the pH level is excessively acidic - source the internet)?

PhUp P.Hydro vs. P.Carb vs. BothPotassium Hydroxide Vs. Potassium Carbonate : or Both for PH+ up.
Does one have lower EC value in solution when used?
Does ones have better stability in solution for hydro or soil?
Does one have more reactivity with other elements in the grow?
Does one have higher PH?

First time testing PPM and slightly panicked :cRunoff was at 2200PPM. I flushed her with 5L of pH 5.8 water. I got the runoff to 1000PPM where I left it. The pH was at 7 though and was higher than before the flush. Why is that? I always pH before watering. Also, is the flush going to cause trouble for her? I kind of panicked.6y ago
