Natural additives suggestions
PenelopeRosetti
started grow question 5y ago
Can anyone recommend another natural additive to add to their growth? As said, last year just used seaweed fertiliser (same as tomatoes) but reckon a little something extra would help them along once they're a decent size.

First leaves curved ?
On Purple Lemonade and Six Shooter the leaves develop a bit slower, but that's okay I guess. But the first leaves are all curved, is that a problem?

Pre-mixing a very strong solution, then diluting it in water to reach desired ppm?
Hi, I want to mix up a strong (let's say 3000+ ppm) solution in say a 2L bottle at the correct ratios. When I need to feed, I pour it into a fresh jug of water until I reach the desired PPM, then close up the 2L and repeat. Any downside? Does the solution get "weaker" that way?

wet/dry cycle from RQS
RQS suggested this wet/dry for Auto.that's okay?for irrigation, when he said 1.5 liters for each day, that means I have to water the plants every day? or is it better to have 4.5 water once every 3 days?And that the amount of irrigation he suggested for 11L pot is not too much?

Flowering or still vegetative? Food question too

what EC do you feed and how often?
I've been giving 6.5 pH water once and the next time I add nutrients until I get an EC of 1mS/cm. This was ok before (runoff didn't show many nutrients on soil). Now I water 2.5L/day but the plant leaves nutrients in soil (runoff EC increases rapidly!) It's in week 4 of flower.
