Baking Soda for Acidic Soil
Misanthropestarted grow question 4y ago
How much baking soda should I add to my water to correct acidic soil? Ph meter reads between 5 and 6. I cant afford prepared solutions (but am not opposed to chemicals) so any other DIY remedies would be welcome too

Look into dolomitic lime. It's full of calcium and magnesium. Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) can add too much sodium to your soil.
MrStinkyanswered grow question 4y ago
You would be better off just with an organic pH controller like biobizz which you could probably get a 250ml bottle for about
Mixing powders and potions can mess with your substrate, sometimes the easy way out is the best way out.

Leaf burnt edgesOne leaf has burnt edges and is a little different looking, than the other leaves. Is this some kind of nutrient burn? I am using a light mix soil, and have not fed the plant with additional nutrients, except for a little root stimulant (half of recommenced dosage).

Deficiency?What is causing this deficiency? UsingProMix HP, top dressed with worm castings, and foliar spray with Epsom salts. I think it is Fe/Mn/Zn deficiency that looks like magnesium deficiency, and it seems to happen to all the plants at about this age. Mega Crop and kelp to fix?Week 4

Deficiency or screw up?What is this? At first I thought it was a phosphorus deficiency so I flushed with extra bloom nutes & overnight the damage doubled. Is it a pest or did I just fuck up bad? She also has seemed to have stopped growing. No noticeable diff in size recently

Brown spots on leaves! To Flush or not to Flush? That is the Question.Hello,
Seeing lots of brown spots developing around middle tier leaves. Reddit is telling me I should flush with 15 gallons of water to get rid of salts around the roots. That seems extreme but if that’s the cure I’d like to know more and can I use my tap water (7.1pH 133ppm)?

Deficiency?Hey everybody,
I’ve never really dealt with deficiencies in autos as most of my experience is with growing photos outdoors.
Does this look like a magnesium deficiency? These just appeared over night on just two of my larger growing white widow autos.
Please let me know, thanks!
