Adjusting PH
Mule420
started grow question 4y ago
I’d also like tips on lowering and raising PH organically. I’ve tried coffee grounds a couple times now and it doesn’t seem to affect it. Thanks in advance!!

Your fox farm 6-4-4 is not organic sooo I’d just use normal pH down and up unless you have a reason I’m missing

Which Gaia Green ferts should I use on my autos at the beginning of flowering stage?
My (Critical Kush) auto's are starting to flower. Do I continue to use my other Gaia Green ferts until the buds actually develop? Or do I need to start feeding it Gaia's power bloom now?

4 days without water
I had to leave for 4 days this past week. Gave both plants H2O before leaving but I came back and one of my plants has some ugly yellow and brown leaves. Do I need to do anything to correct this or just get back to my routine feedings?

Homemade inputs???
What do yall think of my diary? All homemade inputs, I invest literally less than 20 bucks in my inputs in the entire grow. I want to prove to you all that you do not need to drop money on bottled nutes, remember bottles are for babies. Challenge me? Just look at my diary

How long is left and other advice :)
This is only my second grow and I am still learning a lot. I am growing this auto White widow on my windowsill and I was wondering how long do you think is left and if there is anything I should do. :). From what I understand it is flowering and some trichomes are turning amber.

Crazy PH drop and High EC
So I mixed a ½ gal solution but adjusted it by adding water to ⅔ gal to bring down the initial EC/ppm testing at around 1400/700. I ph to 5.8 and fed, the runoff was shy of 20% testing at PH 2.65 EC 3940 ppm 1970 Why and how to fix?

How do I lower pH using pH Down?
My soil pH levels are high - just over 7. My tap water is also high - over 7. I have a bottle of pH Down but I've never used it. Do I just add a bit to the tap water and water them? Or should I wait till the next time I'm adding nutrients? How much should I add? Thanks!

Neptune’s Harvest 2-3-1 ok?
Im growing an autoflower in ffof in 3 gal fabric pot. Undecided as to whether to keep indoors or bring outside. I’m starting week 4 and figure I need to start nutes soon. I’d like to go very simple and organic. Can I just use something like Neptune’s harvest fish and seaweed?

Nutrients bottle lid ideas, please?
Hey there growers. Could someone recommend an alternative to the terrible bottle lids that nutrient bottles come with? I use primarily Advanced Nutrients in 1L bottles and every feeding I say to myself I need to find an alternative - they leak no matter how tight I seal them.

Watering question - Volume?
Currently doing my 1st grow and had some watering questions. I see a lot online about when to water which seems pretty easy to understand but I have trouble finding the amount of water. Is it based on the size of the pot? or the size of the plant? or both maybe? How much?

Plagron sugar royal - hermie´s
Could plagron sugar royal cause plants to hermie? I have used sugar royal for 2 grows and in these grows, always 1 or 2 plants went hermie. Before I have never used sugar royal and I never have had any hermies. Sugar royals creates a kind of drought stress to increase trichomes.

Nutrient lock out?
Well watered my plants with great value drinking water. Ph 4.11. Didn't check ph until week 3. Currently upping it to 6.5 after I found the issue. Does this look like nutrient lock out? They were in root Riot starter plugs. And I fed the some clonex and great white microbs.

C02 exhaust bag
Hi. I wanted to know if adding a CO2 exhaust bag in a small grow tent (60x60cm) is effective for overall growth? I'm European and most off my pairs said it was useless but the topics dated from 2010s and I couldn't find current definitive argument so... here I am.
