Ph your water last thing. The nutrition has different chemistry and they alter ph. So always set it last. Good luck and happy growing 🌱🌱🌱

I run a hydroponic system with clay.
pH = 5,8 and EC = 1,8 were static
after she stops drinking, I lowered the EC to 1,5 (same ph).

Does PH down solution keep the PH down for extended periods of time?When i use vinegar to lower the PH of my tap water, over the next few days the PH increases again. If i use an actual PH down solution (such as future harvest citrus down) does it lower the PH and stay down?Feeding. Other

Biobizz Light-Mix vs All-MixCan Biobizz Light Mix sustain the entire life of an autoflowering (plus nutrients, obviously) or should be used for seedlings and first week? All Mix would a be better choice, or in the end just save you some nutrients and work? And for a classic photoperiodic? Your thoughts :)Feeding. Other

Watering in Super CoCoHey there fellow growers! So I’ve been trying to figure out the best watering schedule and volume 🧐I’ve been told to always water with runoff, go by weight, top inch dry, etc.
I guess my main question is runoff necessary when watering in Super CoCo?
All advice appreciated!🌱Other. Other
