With 5 tbsp each of crab, feather and fish bone meal as well as 2.5 tbsp each of kelp meal and bat guano. (20 tbsp total for 10 gallons, 2tbsp per gal)
Is this too hot for autos?

That sounds like a well-balanced mix 👌
There shouldn't be anything burning. Your ladies just take what they need 😁
I even suspect that the mix should carry you through their entire life cycle quite smoothly 👍

Why aren't my plants growing? They've been germinating for ten days, but so far they've only developed 2 leaves and 2 are just starting to sprout. The water I give them is measured based on their dry weight. The substrate isn't very draining, could that be the issue?Setup. Substrates

Clay pebbles at the bottomI'm thinking using this like maybe an half inch in 4 gallon fabric pot - for better airflow for roots & to prevent overwatering. They absorb the excess well and give off slowly.
Been doing this with my normal plants at home and it works well for them. Anyone with experience?

noticed the ph in the Pots is at 6.5+, something to do with the Hydroton. In order to balance it i had to drop the res PH to 4.0, but it constantly rises back up to 6. Using RO water
Suggestions appreciated, will the Hydroton eventually stop having the ability to raise my PH?Week 1
