Irrigation tap water
SisloVislo
started grow question 4y ago
I only have access to tap water ppm 280, will it be suitable for irrigation with BIOCANNA organic fertilizers? It tastes harsher than 60 ppm drinking water and ppm1 distilled water.

"dunking" fabric pots in solution for feeding?
I have recently been presented with the concept of "dipping": submerging fabric pot in solution for about 8 seconds and then picking up to drain. It is intriguing to me but I am curious about it causing overwatering or root rot. Thoughts?

Seabird Guano
Anyone use seabird guano? I’m told it’s good for flowering and an excellent phosphorous source. Anyone use it? If so, how much and when during flowering should it be used? Mid flower? Late flower? Only nute is use is Neptune’s harvest fish and seaweed, they seem to love it.

Is my EC ok for plain water?
Stupid question but the EC on my meter is it 0.3 or 3.7? I never really minded the EC just ppm as I grow in canna Coco plus but now I'm wondering if the EC is actually right. PH is usually 6.3-6.4.

Super soil concentrate
I am using autoflower concentrate by living soil which in my opinion works pretty good. I've added cal/mag and flora bloom to feedings. My question is is there anything else I should add to feedings?

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?

Watering a seedling
Hey, I learned that when watering you need to water until there ~20% runoff but I watered little at a time during 30 minutes or so and gave about 3-4L of plain water before runoff and even if two leaves have popped I'm worried. Is this normal ?

Watering too much at once vs runoff?
‚Watering when soil is 2,5 cm dry‘:I read the soil should never be ‚swamp‘ wet after watering, yet I also read that the run off needs to be tested regularly - but watering till water runs off does make the soil muddy. Can there be too much water at once if the soil Is dry on top?

Bruce Banner specific needs
I was wondering what specific needs does the Bruce Banner #3 strain needs for climate and nutrients, grow calendar and training techniques but my grow space is small : 60 x 40 cm. (23 x 15 inches) so I should probably go for a sog, big bud or lollypopping. Thanks
