Adjusting PH
m0useanswered grow question 2 years ago
Lime works on the soil to raise its PH
Sulphur works to lower the PH
These are more long term options for soil.
PH 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14
1 acid 7 neutral 14 alkaline.
I would be more likely to use a PH down product for this. Phosphoric acid is a great, nice buffer period as well.
Some other PH down products use citric acid, and it does not last as long in the medium and the PH will rise again within 24-48 hrs.
Also coffee grounds will tend to lower your PH vs raise it.
To many coffee grounds can cause some issues.
Good Luck!

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

What do you recommend for watering plants manually?I’ve heard that a spray bottle is best for saplings but as plants get bigger and need gallons at a time, what do you guys use? Are watering cans the best option or are there better methods for a small grow tent?Feeding. Other

Thoughts on adding GH FloraBloom 0-5-41st time grower here- Good idea to add this nute to my almost 4 week old autoflower top-down?
I'm using a wicking tub with ocean forest potting mix, that has a layer of fertilizer more rich in nitrogen. They seem happy, would hate to overdo it. Haven't watered them in 2 weeks.

Should I switch to well water?I use tap water. For our normal flower/vegetable garden we use well water. I measured the EC/PPM of both.
Tap: 0.5 mS/cm (=320 ppm), we live in an area with soft tapwater according to Water Agency (11°F-13°F max)
Well: 0.32 (=205 ppm) -> how do I interpret this for well water?Feeding. Other

I need a little help with Advanced Nutrients. Without the help of ppm.Hello, a friend confused me with the use of Advanced Nutrients, this is the easiest way for me to conclude, question. We have A, B, C nutrients, each of them goes 1ml per liter, on 1l we put all 3 components A, B, C each one ml per liter, or only one milliliter goes to each liter
