Baking Soda for Acidic Soil
Misanthropestarted grow question 3 years 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.

Dolomite lime will help balance your PH.

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.

Slight Leaf Discoloration. Early zinc deficiency?Girl showing slight discoloration on newer leaves. Mostly interveinal + little on the tips. Guessing it's an early zinc def. but would like another opinion. Watering sparingly at ph 6.3 - 6.5. No runoff yet, so ph may be higher in soil. Lower ph and watering til runoff next time?

Nitrogen Toxicity?Not sure if this is nitrogen toxicity or normal leaf color. Crinkling was caused by too much light and the fan. Got better in 24h after adjusting grow light and fan. Plants are starting week 2 of veg, Hulkberry Auto. Medium is light mix soil.

Strange discolorationThe plant is becoming less green, more yellow, dark green/blue, and the tip seems necrotic. She received a little more light intensity (TS1000 at 50cm, 25%dim to 50%dim) when she was repotted on the final DWC. T.A. (Growing on FeedChart) was used to create the nutrient solution.

growing outdoorHi growers, I'm planning to grow three plants this month. It's my second time growing outdoors. Temperatures currently range between 15 and 22 degrees, but they will likely be higher in a few weeks. Is it warm enough to start? Which strain (auto) would you advise me to grow?Setup. Outdoor

Outdoor growers: fim/top?I want to make sure to clarify that this question is only for outdoor growers with a photoperiod limited solely by the nature of the changing seasons.
Should I even bother with fim/topping? Is the juice worth the squeeze? Let me know your thoughts, or even better, resultsSetup. Outdoor
